Looking for Easter egg hunts? Bunny photo opportunities or Bunny breakfasts? Easter baskets to your home? You’ve come to the right place. We’ve pulled together a list of McHenry County Easter egg hunts, as well as some breakfasts, Bunny visits, and a few other fun events.
Many of the events feature a visit from the Easter Bunny and some photo opportunities, though you may need to provide your own camera and take your own pictures. And while many of these events are free, be sure to check the details for any events you may be interested in as some do request donations, may have fees, and some request or require pre-registration.
As most of these events will be held outside and may be subject to weather, dress appropriately and check for secondary dates.
The events below are listed by city and include general time details (be sure to check the specific details though as there may be specific time details for age groups, different sessions, etc.) as well as address information and a map.

President and Founder of Identity Developments, LLC, the parent company of the McHenry Life website. My hope for McHenry Life is to create a resource and destination for the residents and businesses of McHenry County alike. A place where residents can discover new places to explore, fun events and ways to spend time, and then share those experiences with others. A place where businesses can connect with existing and potential customers, and not simply market their businesses, but share their own unique stories.
