My kid insisted that I put up the Christmas tree the other day, so I just put it under the tree. Lol. It's her first Easter that she semi-understands (she's 2), so next year I'll probably hide it.

Wait. What? You put up your Christmas tree?
Yep. We were on a walk and she all of the sudden asked if we could put up our tree and I didn't really see a reason not to (other than it being annoying), so I said yes.

No. My 2 year old is not telling me when to put the tree up. That is a pain in the ass. More power to ya.

Huh. I think it being annoying is reason enough. You all koko if that makes you happy.
The baskets are not hidden and weren't hidden when I was a kid.

Attachment Deleted This was the scene in our house at 6 AM this morning. I'm sure it's horrifying to most people.

Oh I get it. You are trying to be the breezy and cool mom whose kid grows into being the little shit the teachers come on here and complain about. KOKO

Hmm...I guess it did kind of read that way. Not usually.
We hide it and my parents (mainly my mom) hid ours back in the day, too. I go a little off-plan, though, and buy some kind of container for him, not a basket. This year I found him a medium-sized rectangular box with a snap-on lid. It's kind of cool, actually, it's white with a big blue patch for a label if he wants to write on it with a wipe-off marker. He has no idea what he will be looking for since he hasn't seen the container before but he is already on pins and needles waiting to go searching for his "basket". (He loves containers to put his Hot Wheels, his Legos, etc., in so this is a win-win for our house.)

Mine was hidden as a kid. I'm not sure about DH, I'll have to ask him when he calls tonight. We've hidden them the last 3 years but I'm starting to second guess if I want to continue doing that.
I feel accomplished if I can manage to hide the eggs in semi-difficult spots. Baskets? Those can stay out in plain sight.
FWIW, my parents were the reigning champions of hard-to-find eggs. We'd always go camping at Easter (which was really freaking cold some years) and they'd hide shot all over the damn campsite. One year it took over an hour to find all the eggs, and I'm pretty sure a few still got left behind.
Ours were hidden with rhyming clues when I was a kid, and my brother's basket was always in the oven because he's dumb and never realized it was in the same place every year.
