Spring has sprung, and Easter is right around the corner, and that means egg hunts, brunch, and chocolate bunnies!  Here's what's in store for Ozaukee this Easter:

On Saturday, April 8th, Grafton kids in preschool through third grade can bring their baskets and join the Egg Hunt at Centennial Park.  Pictures with the Easter Bunny will available between 12:30 and 1, and the hunt will begin at 1 p.m.

Port Washington has their annual Hippity Hoppity Easter Egg Hunt and Easter Bonnet Contest (even pets can get dressed up!) on Saturday, April 8th.  Kids ages 2-9 should go to the Possibility Playground at 10 a.m. Photos can be taken with the Easter Bunny at the park, and families can enjoy live music by Shana Harvey.  Then, "hop" to downtown Port, where many of the local businesses will be handing out additional treats between 11 and 1 p.m.

Kids in Belgium who are 10 or younger can meet at Heritage Park for an Easter Egg Hunt at 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 15th for their hunt.  

Riveredge Nature Center in Newburg has three different hunts the same day, 9 a.m., 11 a.m., and 1 p.m., for their special Family Easter Egg Hunt.  This is a candy-free hunt and prizes will be awarded to all participants. After the hunt, discover the wonders of Wisconsin’s egg-laying animals and color eggs using natural dyes. This event will appeal to the whole family. For everyone’s enjoyment, group sizes for the hunts will be kept small, children will be divided according to age, and bag limits will be set. Pre-registration required ($7/non-member child & $5/member child).

​Easter Brunch is a popular option, which means reservations are usually required.  There are many places to choose from in Port Washington: Twisted Willow, Port Hotel, Newport Shores, and Tellos are the standards, and newbie General Wooster's is testing the waters this year. Nearby in Saukville, the Firehouse Restaurant will have their Easter Brunch. In Grafton, Atlas BBQ is trying out their very first Easter Brunch, while Fire Ridge is holding up their tradition.  In Mequon, Joey Gerard's is a good bet.  In Cedarburg, Galioto's Twelve 21 has your Easter Brunch covered.

​If you're in need of Easter Candy, get it local!  Amy's Candy Kitchen and Ashley's Confectionary in Cedarburg have great selections.  Sweet Trio in Grafton and The Chocolate Chisel in Port have plenty of chocolate bunnies to go around, as well.

Happy Easter from Ozaukee Living Local!
