I'm nosy! Mine got one medium one from us and a small one from their nan and grandad. They had a few packets of sweets for a hunt this morning as well. I'm not judging, just interested in what goes on in other people's families!

I used to get 4 or 5 as a kid and i swear they used to be bigger.

Not very many because a flipping fox raided the garden overnight night and ate about 80 foil wrapped eggs or mini-egg filled plastic ones 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ never so much seen a cat in our garden in the four years we've lived here and have left the same outside in previous years with no issues. They got one medium egg from grandparents and one from a trail we did yesterday, so the Easter bunny's haul was meant to be the bulk 😭

Oh no!!

One cadbury buttons egg each (they have wooden ones for the egg hunt). They prefer cake to sweet type stuff.

A medium size egg each, a roast and a day out. They are adult dc though 😂

Granddaughter has had about 4 medium size,2 Peter rabbit chocs and numerous small eggs from egg hunt. These will last for ages !
My children used to get about 4-5 altogether inc from relatives.

DD1 (4.5) got a small one from us (a bluey kinnerton one, so a larger egg and a chocolate bar), and some mini eggs that we hid in the living room.
We also went to a couple of national trust places this weekend and did their Easter trails so we picked up 2 small NOMO (nut free) Easter eggs with those. We'll all share those.
DD2 (22 months) didn't get an egg of her own but will have some bits from the NT ones.

I got a large Cadbury one. And I gave DH a couple of kinnerton ones (he has a severe nut allergy and most eggs say "may contain nuts" so the kinnerton ones are what he tends to have, even though they're small and mainly have peppa pig, paw patrol, and bluey on them!).

We did a small Easter egg hunt round the garden this morning where they each got a few small chocolate eggs (smaller than a creme egg) & some treat size bags of Easter Haribo plus one medium sized egg.
They also got a chocolate bunny from school.
Family have given us a bit of money for DC rather than but eggs as a) we're going to London next week & b) they don't need lots of eggs etc as they just won't eat them - pretty sure they still have chocolate left over from Christmas!
When I was a kid all my chocolate would have been gone in a week!

I used to get about 10 as a kid. I can’t bear the thought of mine eating that much sugar!

they got one of their grandparents and one pretty modest one from mum and dad.

and we organised an egg hunt in the garden which was 10 eggs each but all very hollow and not that chocolatey

My youngest one 15 insisted he didn't want any Easter eggs so got him a chocolate orange instead..... this morning he asked where his egg was!!!! Grrrr

10 pretty small eggs in the hunt that is. So they got 2 proper eggs and 10 small ones which seems more than enough to me.
