Yes, we will create different times for different ages so every child gets a chance to find eggs!

If your child is over 7 years old and is up for an Easter Egg Treasure Hunt - where children follow a series of 12 clues that eventually leads to a box of more treasures, let us know. We need minimum of 12 kids to do it. We'll make separate groups if lots of kids want it. 
Want more info? Email us at info@seedsinthemiddle.org.

 
FEE Per Child -  $10                    FACE-PAINTING FROM 12-1 PM - $10
Elephant Cookie - $2.50
Your donation supports upfront costs of an investigative journalism project by veteran reporter Nancie L. Katz and her daughter, Lulu, to travel to Southeast Asia and write about places you can go where your money directly helps local people earn a living while saving elephants and their fragile environments. It also goes to help kids right here in Brooklyn who live in food deserts. Help them create Hip2B Healthy Markets at school, where every fresh snack is only 50 cents to lure classmates away from unhealthy junk food at nearby bodegas.
