Easter Town

By Gemma Cleanslate

Hooray ! Easter Town is open. Laura Liberty has recreated her cute little town with all the fun activities again this year.  Just landing there is a burst of spring with all that goes with it. Right away it feels like Easter .Across the bridge the band is playing and the Peeps race track is ready and waiting for you .Be careful! If you want a good overview of the whole town take a balloon ride. This is not a typical balloon ride so hang on which ever way you want.

There is a fun Easter egg coloring contest going on with a place to work on your egg and then send it off for placement on the judging stand. There are rules so get the notecard that explains all. The top winner gets 1000 L. There are several categories with other  L prizes to try for. The total winnings are 4000L so take a chance!



Do you need anything for Easter decor? If so this is the place to look. All the food decor dispenses food. There are garlands , arches,  lots of bunnies, balloons and so much more. The clothing ranges from very casual to formal. Along the walk by the way, you will find gachas too.  Do not miss the free bunny hopper ! There are several ways to get around and I try a few but choose to walk,

My favorite part of Easter town is taking a picture with the Easter Bunny.Look for her. This is not the cute little Easter bunny that quietly hops around mind you .This is Tina (tanyja Resident)!

 Fun interactive builds are all over the region just look for them as you walk around . This is a wonderful place to take photos . Here I am after gorging on chocolate with the burping bunny. Yum .


There is a hunt going on so look for Easter eggs hidden everywhere. Townies group members get some special eggs so consider joining the group. That way you can keep an eye on the other towns that appear during the year. They are all great fun. Halloween is the next one .. a long wait! This Town will be here until the 22nd. Go immerse yourselves in Easter.

Easter Town

I was able to see a few Easter events this weekend. There were a number of small events, mostly egg hunts of some kind. But the biggest show was probably at "Easter Town."


"Easter Town is a holiday destination that dips you in colorful happiness, visual wonders and experiences sweeter than a chocolate bunny. Ten talented designers have come together to sell an eclectic range of original items. Combine this with egg hunts, peep races and other holiday activities, and Easter Town is an panoramic explosion of holiday joy."


Dropping in, it took a few minutes for most everything to rezz due to the crowd there. What got my attention about the people around were the several child avatars around, "Look, the Easter Bunny!" Hopping around in a circle were a "BugsBuny Resident" and a "BabsBuny Resident," in avatars resembling the cartoon characters. I never found out if they were part of Easter Town, or a couple alts made by a visitor for the holiday. By clicking on the "Bunny Hop" cube in the middle, one could join them.

The place itself had a cartoonish style, with the stores made with crooked windows and colored roofs. There were also a number of whimsical exhibits, such as an Easter egg machine that cranked out colored eggs factory style, and one of the Easter Bunny after apparently having over-indulged on his candies until he had a bellyache.

There were a number of freebies around, such as a bouncy ball one could sit on and bounce around on. There was also a freebie "egg avatar," which looked strange and hilarious with eggs with human heads walking about. There was also a basket for an egg hunt going around on the sim. Looking around, I found only one egg.

Some attractions one had to pay to play, such as the Peep Race. The stores themselves had a number of Easter-related goods for sale from clothes to jewelry and more. But one didn't have to spend money here to have a pleasant time. The freebies and cartoony atmosphere made the place well worth a visit.

Easter Town is at Elizabeth Town (151, 104, 22). The exhibit is scheduled to remain up until April 15th.
