This first weekend of April promises to be egg-straordinary with the kick-off of egg hunting season. Get in the pre-Easter spirit with the Easter Egg Hunt on PAWS Discovery Farm, Egg Hunt Hayride, Paramus Easter Egg Hunt, and Easter and Springtime Family Festival.

Soak up more outdoor time when both Six Flags and Storybook Land, plus the Essex County Cherry Blossom Festival, make their season debuts this weekend. Or spend time indoors at theatrical productions of The Jungle Book, Pinkalicious The Musical, Peg+Cat Live, and Milk & Cookies: Sweetbeatz.

Find even more weekend options in our Spring Fun Guide, including Easter Egg Hunts for New Jersey Kids.  And look to our April GoList and event calendar for a complete listing of happenings this weekend and beyond.
