The document describes an Easter balloon hunt game where different colored balloons are hidden around a room or outside. Participants are divided into teams who must hop around connected by holding each other's waists to find and collect one balloon of each color by blowing them up and passing them from mouth to mouth. The colors of the balloons represent different meanings related to Easter: black for sin, red for the blood of Christ, white for life cleansed, green for new life in Christ, and yellow for accessible heaven.

choose names such as “Egg Raiders.” Ask each team to line up.
Have the members place their hands on the waist of the person in
front of them. The last person in line will give verbal instructions
to the team, trying to get them to hop in unison. The first person
is the only one who can touch the balloons.

5. The object of the game is to hop around the room in a connected line
and find the balloons. Each group must find one balloon of each color.
The first person blows up the balloon, ties the string to it, and places the
balloon between the teeth of the second person. This process continues
until everyone has a balloon in his or her teeth or until time is called.
