Discover how Easter egg hunts went from parks to driveways and even deep into the Star Wars galaxy! Exciting and egg-citing!

The Easter celebrations took a unique turn this year with drive-through events becoming the new norm. McCarthy Park hosted an Egg Hunt Eggtravaganza where families drove around hunting for colorful Easter eggs, adding a twist to the traditional hunt. Meanwhile, in Stroud, police issued a warning after suspicious chocolate Easter eggs were found outside a home, urging caution from the public.

On a heartwarming note, Frances Hall in Winnipeg initiated a neighborhood egg hunt to ensure all kids could enjoy Easter, spreading joy and community spirit. In North Royalton, Ohio, the annual Easter egg hunt at Memorial Park brought families together under a clear blue sky, creating egg-citement and joy among children and adults alike.

For Star Wars fans, hidden gems in the Disney canon include deep-cut Easter eggs like references to Aquillian Rangers and Merson Pirates in Leia's dialogues. Dryden Vos' office in Solo: A Star Wars Story is filled with book references, adding an extra layer of fan delight with nods to the franchise's extensive lore.

In the midst of traditional Easter egg hunts, the Star Wars universe offers fans a treasure trove of hidden references, creating a unique and geeky way to celebrate the holiday. Whether hunting eggs in your neighborhood or exploring the galaxy far, far away, Easter festivities this year had something for everyone to enjoy.
