Just wondering if others buy their adult children easter eggs ?
Been informed by my youngest (25)  she wants one.

Yes I'm afraid to say that I do. My oldest is 25 too. Lol

Yep all three of mine get them. We still carry on the tradition started by my mum when I was small of hiding all the eggs around the house - and I always get a fair few myself! I can't do without my easter eggs and Lindt Easter Bunny.

Yep, still buy for adult children but no longer hide theirs around the house  I do hide the grandchildren's eggs though and they love searching for them even though they know practically every place I'm likely to have hidden them by now 

Hid them on the allotments once though - that got 'em

'Fraid so - in my defense....I have half a dozen little kiddies to buy for, then feel guilty if I do not buy for my own adult children!  I still like to receive an Easter egg though, so why should they not get one?  You are never too old for an Easter egg.

Yep I'm another sucker for buying Easter eggs for hubby and family. I get a box of chocolates or similar from hotel chocolate as only egg I can have is After Eight and they didn't have last year.

It is a standing joke in our house that I buy an Easter Egg every year for Dear Son (23) ....then eat it myself a week later.   He doesn't really like chocolate

Neither does my son.....but there are lots of willing helpers

Yes I buy them for my older children but don't hide them now.

[Firewalker50]

Yes. I buy for my daughter, fiance and my 4 nephews.  All are over 21 except 1.  I don't hide them since they are not here, but will start that again with my grandson :-)

We used to hunt ours then we had to hide them again; and Dad would go with his. Dog to find them - and eat them if he found them!  Lots of upset but we did learn to be very inventive for the hiding places and to learn to cope with rukes of a game (would rather not have though)

Well I was trying to get out of it this year but they (3 sons 19-25) said they wanted one so I'd better.... Daughter won't be home so I don't send them. I have never hidden them nor done any of the Easter bunny thing but they have all been laid out on the table in the morning with lots of daffs and primroses from the orchard on the table easter morning and then we all have boiled eggs and paint patterns on them with watercolours before eating them (chop off the unpainted end) and then go to Dartmoor for the day! I always keep the painted shells and they sit around on the window sill gathering dust for years.... but last year my daughter sent us some lovely E European wooden painted eggs - so now I will only keep them (the painted ones) for one year!
