🐣 Egg Hunts, Bunny Hops & Easter Shenanigans
Let’s be real: no one sprints like a toddler spotting a shiny plastic egg in the wild. It’s the one time of year when kids turn into sugar-fueled treasure hunters, and parents turn into sherpas hauling overflowing baskets and wrangling bunny ear headbands.
This spring, the Carlisle–Boiling Springs–Shippensburg region is hopping (sorry, had to) with Easter egg hunts, Bunny photo ops, and pastel-covered fun. Whether you’re after a glow-in-the-dark egg hunt, a peaceful park scramble, or a full-blown festival complete with face paint and bunny meet-and-greets, we’ve rounded up the best Easter events happening near you.
🌱 Spring Events That Don’t Involve the Easter Bunny (And Still Totally Rock)
Not every spring celebration needs to involve a 6-foot-tall rabbit and plastic grass all over your house. For families who love to explore, discover, and make the most of the warmer weather, we’ve gathered the best non-Easter spring events near Carlisle, Boiling Springs, and Shippensburg.
Think: Earth Day festivals, baby animal snuggling, outdoor play days, spring markets, park parties, and more. These events are perfect for families who want a little fresh air, community connection, and maybe a goat selfie or two. 🌼🐐
So whether you’re into planting trees, petting bunnies without chasing eggs, or sipping coffee while your kids turn into sidewalk chalk Picassos, we’ve got you covered.
