This Sunday, April 20, the French will be celebrating Easter. For this occasion, the Easter egg hunt is a real tradition. Little colorful eggs, chocolate bunnies… youngsters love this treasure hunt. Armed with their baskets, the little gourmets search for the coveted chocolates hidden in parks and gardens. As every year in Paris and the Ile-de-France region, numerous egg hunts are organized for families. Some of them are free. So, are you ready for a delicious, family-friendly chocolate experience ?
Parrot World and its immersive egg hunt
On April 19, 20 and 21, come and celebrate Easter with your family in the lush vegetation of the Parrot World animal park.

Will you find the golden egg? If you do, you’ll go home with a very special gift: a stuffed parrot for 3-6 year-olds, or a special moment with our penguin friends for 7-11 year-olds. The egg hunt is free for all children with an admission ticket. Once in the park, you’ll need to register for the various sessions. A great activity not to be missed this weekend!
