Getting ready for Easter in Nashville and Knoxville

  Easter takes place on April Fool’s Day this year. That means you can make all sorts of promises to your family and then shout, “April Fools!” But if you’re a good bunny, you’re probably searching for family-friendly Easter activities. As you’re getting ready for Easter in Nashville and Knoxville, here are ideas for things to do.  

Easter Egg Hunts

Hop over to the Nashville Zoo for its annual Extravaganzoo on Saturday, March 31. The zoo is planning 10 egg hunts, a hunt for golden eggs, animal shows, bounce houses, face painting, and a visit from the Easter Bunny! You can also have breakfast with the Easter Bunny, with four seatings beginning at 8 a.m. The Patterson Park Indoor Pool in Murfreesboro welcomes kids between the ages of 2 and 9 to join in the Underwater Egg Hunt, a free event on March 24, from 1:30 to 3:30. In the Knoxville area, the hunt will also be a real splash at the Davis YMCA’s Easter Egg Dive, on Saturday, March 24. Three age groups—from 6 months to 12 years old—will each get 20 minutes to hunt for eggs, starting at 11 a.m. The following day, take another dip in the egg-filled pool at the West Side YMCA’s Easter Egg Dive, starting at 2:30 p.m. on March 25. The 4th Annual Light the Night Easter Egg Hunt presents glow-in-the-dark eggs for a nighttime Easter egg hunt, along with face painting, games, and inflatables at the RIO Revolution Church in Maryville.
