Hop into Easter Maths: Solve the Bunny’s Treasure Hunt!

Easter isn’t just about chocolate - it’s also the perfect time for a fun maths adventure! This year, join our Easter Bunny on a treasure hunt full of challenges, clues, and numbers. Can you help the Bunny find all the hidden eggs while solving some clever maths puzzles along the way?

How the Hunt Works:

The Easter Bunny has hidden ten special eggs around the garden. Each egg has a number, and each number is part of a puzzle. Solve the puzzle to figure out the egg’s location, then continue to the next clue. Keep track of all your answers, and you’ll reveal a hidden Easter prize at the end!

Bunny’s Easter Maths Puzzles

1. The Bunny hops 3 steps north, then 4 steps east. How many steps is the Bunny from the starting point? (Hint: use the Pythagorean idea – just for fun!)
2. The Bunny finds 12 eggs but eats 5. How many eggs are left?
3. The Bunny hides eggs in baskets. Each basket has 3 eggs. If there are 4 baskets, how many eggs were hidden in total?
4. The Bunny finds a patch with 20 flowers and gives half of them to the chicks. How many flowers remain?
5. The Bunny runs around the garden in laps of 6 steps. After completing 5 laps, how many steps were taken?
6. The Bunny discovers 15 eggs and wants to share them equally among 3 friends. How many eggs does each friend get?
7. The Bunny multiplies a hop distance by 2 and lands 10 steps further. How many steps were hopped the first time?
8. The Bunny finds 8 golden eggs and hides 3 more. How many golden eggs are there now?
9. The Bunny collects eggs in groups of 4. If they want 6 groups, how many eggs are in total?
10. On the last lap, the Bunny finds a giant egg that is 2 times bigger than the others. If regular eggs are 5 cm, how big is the giant egg?

Why This Maths Hunt is Egg-citing!

These puzzles turn an Easter adventure into a maths treasure hunt! Kids practise addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and even a little geometry, all while imagining hopping bunnies and hidden eggs.
