Step 1 of 6
Begin with balloons and plastic toys, one set for each child attending the party. In this instance I have used stretchy rubber frogs. Place/squish the toy into the deflated balloon.

Step 3 of 6
Slowly fill balloons in the same way, trying to keep them a similar size. I put mine into a dish to stop them rolling around, but they hold a better shape when placed into the freezer individually.

Step 4 of 6
After freezing over night, take the balloons out of the freezer and cut away the balloon. If you cut off the top of the balloon, it peels away nicely to reveal the frozen egg!

Just before the kids are ready to go on the egg hunt, run around & hide them around the garden. Playing in winter, I had a bucket of warm water ready to drop the found eggs into so they could thaw out

Step 6 of 6
The kids will have a ball looking for the frozen eggs and will excitedly await the reveal of their animal as the ice melts to release it. Even adults will be impressed with the novel idea of this game

I'm a teacher and this is a wonderful activity for my student. I can hide these in the commons area and have the students follow directions such as north, south, east, etc. THANKS!
