Things to do in San Diego for Easter with Kids 2014

With Easter right around the corner we’re trying to figure out what activities we want to partake in around town. And that means one thing to the kids… Easter egg hunts! They absolutely love meeting up with friends and participating in some of the fun hunts going on here in San Diego.

From events at the local hotels, to great programs put on by Parks & Rec, there’s something for everyone to do in San Diego for Easter with kids. You just have to know about it!

So we’ve put together a fun list of a handful of ideas for you to check out. If you do check out any of these events please let us know! And if you have any more ideas, link them up in the comments below!

There are multiple spots for hunting down Easter eggs in San Diego. Follow the Easter bunny as he makes his way throughout the county. The one place I always check with first is our local church. They usually know who’s hosting a good egg hunt for the kids.

And every year my mother-in-law invites us out to her alma mater, Our Lady of Peace, for their annual Easter egg hunt event for the kids of Alumni. But if you want some more great ideas of where to check out, here are a few places to look.
