As it’s Easter, I thought it would be a perfect time to blog about last weekends Fabergé Egg Hunt!

Just before I “eggsplain” about our day, I would like to tell you a bit about The Big Egg Hunt and how it all came about. Last year, some of you may have seen the highly decorated elephants dotted around London town (I even blogged about a few). Well, this year the Elephant Family and Action for Children charities decided to do a record-breaking egg hunt around London to raise money. You can read more about the egg hunt here.

Our  egg hunt started with an “eggciting” family briefing with Gemma outside Harrods, Knightsbridge. It was there that we were assigned our team names and “eggsplained” the agenda for the day. The Webster’s were called team “Eggcelence”, headed up by captain Lisa. And the Punshon’s, named team “Eggcitable” were lead by Ceri.

The plan was to find as many hidden eggs around Knightsbridge, Sloan Square, Piccadilly, Carnaby Street and Covert Garden. The race was on, and it’s fair to say that it brought out our competitive sides in both families!

As well as it being a fun filled, family day out we also got to see lots of lovely designed eggs as part of our hunt! Here are some I snapped along the way.

As you can see from my photo’s, there was an “eggstensive” variety of designs on display. We didn’t get to see them all, but you can see the full list of egg, artists and designers on their website.

We thoroughly enjoyed the day, and I’m already looking forward to seeing what the Elephant Family and Action for Children charities decide to do next year!
