Easter egg "hunt"

Every year Toyota host an Easter egg hunt and the last two years we have taken the kids and it seems to be a fun little activity.  
Last year Livvy just slept though the whole thing and it very muddy as well as Eric had strep so we didn't really do all of the activities and it was more of a get your eggs and leave type of experience. 
This year it was a little further away and the weather was really nice we were able to have more fun. I don't necessarily think or call these egg hunts just because they are all laid out on the grass and its just how fast you can pick up the eggs and put them in your basket. 
It is nice that they have the ages spilt up and at different times so we were able to walk each kid to their section and watch them collect their eggs. As the ages increased the time it took the kids to collect their eggs decreased. It took Livvy's group a lot longer then all the others because after the kids had a few eggs in their basket they were happy. 
When it came to Thomas and Sups age it was more of a mad rush and the eggs were all picked up in like five minutes tops. They also picked the exact spot were they thought it would be the best to get the most eggs. 
Thomas came with a system where he would fill up one basket and then dump the eggs in the stroller and try to fill up the next basket. 
The things inside the eggs were a little lame and not really thought out at least in my opinion. For Livvy's eggs they didn't have candy which would have been fine but for the 0-2 group they were little toys which were more of a choking hazard for that age. The boys all had tootsie rolls and gum which Sup couldn't eat because of his teeth so he ended up with Livvys choking hazards : )
