Egg Dying, Egg Hunts and Cascarones-Old traditions include dying eggs, marking them with a white crayon before dying with words of wishes and prosperity. Decorate the home or hide plastic eggs for either children or adults with little trinkets, treats or words of wisdom hidden inside. Make a festive Cascarone, a Mexican Easter tradition filling up hollowed chicken egg shells with confetti, glitter, lavender and sage. The tradition is to bless someone by 'cracking' the egg over someone's head! You may also make specialized Cascarones for your altar filling them with items of intention such as prosperity, money, fertility, etc.
