      I went her for the first time with my 5 year old daughter and husband.The area in which the eggs were on (not hidden) was 50ft of grass for about 100+ children. They counted down and said no parents... Expand

      I went her for the first time with my 5 year old daughter and husband.The area in which the eggs were on (not hidden) was 50ft of grass for about 100+ children. They counted down and said no parents on the grass. Then all the children were so packd in, it was like a frenzied mosh pit! A young girl had a mouth full of blood from bing pushe by other children. Then a partents worse fear, everyone (adults) crowded the already cramped space looking for their children. People were screaming, kids crying for mom, everytwhere you looked. At least 250-300 people scrambling to find their kids.Not to mention children crying because the all litterally got 0-2 eggs a piece, very few maybe had 5 or 6. Being a Psychology major, I realize how dangerous this festive event was. Anyone could have lost your child. And we watched her close but with that many children cramped in a tight area with hundreds of adults watching is not anything we will do there again! Do not waste your time, it was scary!! Collapse
