Macaroni Kid Bunny Trail Egg Hunt: SOLD OUT!

Pre-registration required

By Meghan Friedland, Editor/Publisher Macaroni Kid Danbury-Bethel-Ridgefield, CT February 26, 2021

**UPDATE 3/20: THE EVENT IS SOLD OUT. Thank you to all who purchased tickets -- we can't wait to see you next Saturday!  


Join us on Saturday, March 27th for a Macaroni Kid Bunny Trail Egg Hunt at Tarrywile Park & Mansion presented by Dental Associates Kids

While this is our 4th year holding an egg hunt at Tarrywile, this year's event will be different in that it will take place entirely outside (no activities inside the mansion). The Bunny Trail Egg Hunt is a pre-ticketed/timed-entry, one-way trail to allow us to be able to cap attendees per state/local health guidelines and allow for ample social distancing. After ticket check-in upon arrival, cars will be directed to the upper lot and after a short wait in their car a volunteer will direct one family at a time to enter The Bunny Trail. Each family will follow the festive, one-way trail collecting candy and toy-filled eggs left by the Easter Bunny at numbered stations along the way. There will also be letters to collect at each station which kids can unscramble for a special message from the Easter Bunny. At the last stop along the trail, you will have the opportunity to pose for a socially-distant photo with the Easter Bunny! Each child will then be given a goody bag filled with fun crafts, activities, treats and more to enjoy at home along with the filled egg they collected on their hunt!

About the Terrain - Dress Appropriately!

The Bunny Trail will be located all around the mansion grounds and will take approximately 10-15 minutes to walk through. While we will not be heading into any wooded areas, the path may involve some hilly spots and areas of uneven footing. Please wear appropriate foot attire and leave strollers in the car.

We can't wait for you to join us! Purchase your tickets online today! Cars without a pre-registered ticket will be turned away. No walk-ups will be permitted.

Donations Welcome

A portion of the proceeds from this event will be donated to Tarrywile Park & Mansion who has suffered great financial loss due to the pandemic. There will be an opportunity upon online checkout to make an additional donation. All donations are greatly appreciated especially since this year we are unable to raffle off Easter Baskets which we have done for the last three years. For more information on donating to Tarrywile, click here.  

Safety Rules

All children must be accompanied by an adult 18 years or older. All attendees and event volunteers along the Bunny Trail must wear a mask at all times and practice social distancing when outside of their car and on the park grounds. No picnicking allowed after the event. Families will be encouraged to promptly return to their cars and exit (vs. staying on the grounds) in order for us to maintain outdoor event capacity guidelines. 

*Should local/state health guidelines change or in the event of severe weather that would jeopardize both the planned date and rain date, we reserve the right to alter the format of this event to a drive-thru experience.
