Easter egg hunt at 6.30am

Both the parents outside with the kids, several kids running around screaming at 6.30am. Do people have no shame?

Its what Jesus would have wanted

I’m pretty sure it will only be once a year. But yes, they should keep it down.

Can’t see myself getting worked up about this. Let them have their fun.

BarMonaco · 05/04/2026 06:49

Yes 6.30am is inconsiderate. Unfortunately a lot of people are.

Weird comment.

Coffeeandbooks88 · 05/04/2026 06:52

That is a bit early but it could be worse things to be honest.

I think it’s fine.
Its a bit of fun for 5 mins for kids

IlovePhilMitchell · 05/04/2026 06:52

YANBU, I’m sat here waiting for my 5 year old to wake up and run in, his hunt is set up for first thing this morning indoors.

Outside hunts should be later on at a reasonable time.

AliceAbsolum · 05/04/2026 06:52

If it was me I'd be feeling so guilty and anxious if I was outside with them for some reason. Do people not feel like that? Or ignore the emotion? Or maybe the children wanted to do it at 6.30am and they have no boundaries.

I guess they peaked early. The only way is down!

auserna · 05/04/2026 06:53

Cue all the virtue-signalling early risers...

Yes, highly inconsiderate. There's absolutely no need for an Easter egg hunt to be at 6.30 in the morning.

But it will have risked waking up like 15 people on a Sunday? How is that fine?

Obnoxious behaviour from the parents.

Heraldry · 05/04/2026 06:56

It’s incredibly inconsiderate and entitled. Do you know these people, are they usually so anti-social?

Buffalogruffalo · 05/04/2026 06:56

It’s once a year, lighten up

Yes they let their dog bark all hours too.

Just don't do it outside at 6.30am. Would you be fine to do one at that time? No worries about that at all?

Doesn’t the sound of children’s laughter fill you with joy on this beautiful spring morning?!

I guess if it woke me up then I’d be pissed off but the NDN baby daughter woke me up crying at 6am so that’s why I’m up!
