An Easter Egg Hunt

Hello everyone! It's EASTER in cornwood at the moment, and what better way to celebrate then an Easter egg hunt with Emily Hamilton and her friends?

The nursery Easter egg hunt

It all started two days before Easter. The cornwood committee where having a meeting about what they should do to celebrate for the nursery children. The adults and teenagers already had an idea of what to do, but the nursery children had nothing.

The committee included:

Troy Dante (mayor), Elma mulberry (also known as Edward) and hornbull Fresian as vice, Daisy Fresian as head cleaner, Rolf billabong as head of transport, William periwinkle as construction and signs, dale seadog as the policeman, Zoe Dante who was in charge of clothing, Maise Hamilton, in charge of child welfare, and last of all, Oliver periwinkle, who was in charge of education. 

The committee where holding a meeting on what to do for the nursery children in Maisie's house, and ideas where being thrown around, until a good one was shouted and everyone agreed on it. 

" what about a little festival for them?" Suggested Daisy Fresian. 

"That's a marvellous idea, but sadly we don't have enough time." Sighed Troy.

" I know!" Giggled Masie, who had been sat in the corner quietly the whole time, drenched in thought. 

" an Easter egg hunt!" 

The mayor spoke before anyone else could open their mouths.

" that is completely excellent! I love that!" All of the committee started nodding heads and agreeing.

" we could hold it in the lower cornwood park, and the children would enjoy it every so much!"

" I agree! tommorrow, can William and hornbull, and you, Masie, wrap up some chocolate eggs? Then, the next morning, the day of Easter, can you hide the eggs in lower cornwood park, so the children could start in the afternoon? " 

" of course!" Hornbull, William, and Masie cheered. They where ever so delighted at the idea, and eager to start.

That evening, after the committee had all parted to go home for tea, Masie sat down for soup with her family, with a very tired Emily Hamilton in her arms. Masie started telling Peppa, Ham, and Spice the news, and Emily's ears perked up when Masie mentioned the words ' Easter eggs' before they all went to bed. 

The next morning, William brought on some chocolate eggs his wife had made, and they looked so tasty! Hornbull had gotten the foil, and Masie brought her own hands. They say outside the school house, basking in the hot weather. 

" time for work, then!" Hornbull chuckled, and they began wrapping each egg up with foil.

Soon, every egg was wrapped, and Masie took it home. The next day, Rolf would pick it up in the  car, and hornbull, William, and Masie would hide them, before the babies came with their baskets and parents in the afternoon.

The next morning, the pile of eggs started to decrease as they where hidden by master hiders. 

" I remeber being the master of hide and seek when I was little! " Masie called as she hid one beneath the stage. " I was always the last to be found, and it always took awhile. Hamsters are masters at soundless feet!" 

" I was always the first." Replied William.

" why?" Hornbull asked, while bending over to put an egg in a flowerpot.

"Guess!" William chuckled, pointing to his ears, and they all laughed.

Soon, every single egg was hidden, and soon afterwards, the babies started to arrive with their parents, and some had massive baskets. Masie saw Emily with Peppa, and Emily grinned with her massive basket, which was almost as big as her.

Masie grinned, before announcing the start of the hunt in front of the crowd.

"The Easter egg hunt is officially open! "

The Easter egg hunt was a huge success! The parents chatted idly, while the babies hunted. 

"You have really outdone yourself, Masie. This is brilliant!" May mulberry smiled. Daisy agreed. " the children seem to love it!" 

May giggled. " look at Elma, trying to manage our six cuties! "

"He's already lost two of them, best I head off and help!" 

And with that, may mulberry was hunting for two children, not Easter eggs. 

" what a marvellous idea! I must thank you and hornbull for helping Masie with this project, the kids love it!" 

" thankyou, mr mayor, I hope the Easter ball tommorrow night is just as successful, as well as the Easter prom." 

" me too, well, I best go find hornbull to congratulate him!"

Hornbull was with his children, who where laughing and gurgling over their third find under the ladder.

After the whole event, the mayor made a speech congratulating the crew. Every single baby got another egg, which made sure every baby left happy, and teething over their finds.

I hope everyone enjoyed this little post, and, as you can probably see, the committee is quite big, and there where more I wanted to add, but it came to a massive narrowing down of important roles. 

Anyway, I knew it started of a bit wordy and slightly complicated, but, nevertheless, I hope it was a good read.

HAPPY EASTER! 

Love, Emily xxxxxxxxx
