Easter egg hunt at 6.30am

[AliceAbsolum]

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

Can you not “make memories” at a slightly more considerate hour? Waking up your neighbours at 6.30am on a Sunday is a dick move.

Lot of entitled posters on here this morning who think it’s ok to do as it’s just one day, let them have their fun.

A lot of people like to have a bit of a lie in at the weekend and it’s common courtesy to not let your kids out to scream away so early.

Yeah, what's Jesus got to do with Easter?!

I agree. Funny yes, weird no. It was meant as a joke by the poster.

My poor DC must have had deprived lives because I don’t remember making any memories at 6.30 in the morning.

I wouldn't but I always see posters on here claiming 'surely it's a one off' to kids being woken up by loud late night parties/summer BBQs etc and this is the same.

That’s exactly what I said this morning when I had a big bag of m&ms for breakfast.

It’s only one day- I couldn’t get worked up about this.

Maybe there’s a reason other than no boundaries eg parent going into work.

Where is that laughing response when I need it?

😂🐇

First poster nailed it 🤣🤣😜

Ah but he may have appreciated a bit of a crowd gathering for the event.

Exactly. No Easter Bunny MN laughing emoji.

Those 5 minutes could have been done at 9am, not 6.30am though.

OP - YANBU. It’s very inconsiderate.

Strangely its a U though. A perfect example of why age ratings on films arent always reliable 😬

6:30 is ridiculous. If they really needed to do it then, they should have done it inside. I get up very early, but I don’t make noise which would wake anyone, especially my neighbours. I wouldn’t have dreamed of having my kids outside making noise at that time.

I can’t believe how many people think it’s ok to be waking the neighbours at 6:30 at a weekend. What’s wrong with teaching children to be respectful of people around them?

“Oh I’ve got an early shift, it’s ok to have the kids out waking the neighbours at 6.30am”
What?!

I have plenty of lovely memories of Easter and none of them involved chocolate hunts at 6:30am. We had Easter egg hunts in the afternoon and we knew my grandparents were responsible, no mention of Easter bunnies. My parents gave us our eggs after church.

Some parents also need to remember that Easter is a deeply religious day and means more to some people than chocolate. While lots of people don’t care about that aspect of it anymore, people up at 6:30am with screaming kids in the garden is very inconsiderate. It’s also a Sunday, and a long bank holiday weekend for many workers and a chance to have a rest. Not everything is about ‘your’ kids.

🤣🤣🤣

Suffer the little children....

😂

It is inconsiderate. DD is desperate to do hers but I'm making her wait till after 9. She also won't scream but there's bound to be evicted chatter.

Sorry, it’s obviously gone over my head. Obviously others enjoyed it though!

Wouldn’t bother me. I was in the gym at that time. Sunday is just another day

I don’t agree with waking people at 6.30 am. But this thread is so funny. It’s Mumsnet at its best. So many threads are a bit too serious these days.
