School may be out, but spring break can still offer a learning op. For  this festive Easter-egg numbers  game, you’ll need 30 painted eggs—10 in pink, 10 in blue, 10 in yellow  (or cut egg shapes from colorful construction paper). Draw funny  faces on the eggs with markers. Then write a number 1 on the back  of each pink egg, a 5 on each blue  egg and a 10 on each yellow one.  Hide them all around your yard  and/or house. Send your kids and  their friends off for a free-for-all to find the eggs in the grass, behind  the recliner or under the bed. Call  “Stop!” after 15 minutes and have  the children add up their points  (older kids can help young ones). The player with the most points wins.
