Places to Find the Easter Bunny in Champaign-Urbana

March 2, 2026 By From The Editors

Find the Easter Bunny in Champaign-Urbana

 

The Easter Bunny is all over town and we have a list of places you can find him for a photo

Hoping to snap a picture of your little one with the Easter Bunny before he hops away until next spring? Here is a growing list of places to hop to and find that furry friend this Easter.

Of course, this is only a small number of Easter activities. For our full list of egg hunts and other Easter activities, click here.

Chambanamoms.com thanks Chic Kids for presenting this resource. 

Chic Kids is a gently used kids’ store buying and selling clothing, shoes, baby gear and toys. Items are purchased every day up until an hour before they close and no appointment is needed to sell. The store is “buy outright,” meaning cash or a check will be offered at the same time items are brought in to sell.

Whether you’re shopping for a newborn, toddler, or teen, their selection spans all of those sizes in everything from everyday basics to standout pieces – all at a fraction of retail prices. When you walk in the front door, there’s also a women’s resale store, Simply Chic, with the same attention to organization, cleanliness and delivering ultra-high value, gently used clothing and accessories.

Saturday, April 4 is Grand Opening Day for both stores. Festivities start at 9 a.m. with an Easter Egg Hunt and visit with the Easter Bunny but continue all day.

For more information: Website, Facebook or Instagram

Do you have an event where the Easter Bunny will be present for pictures? Submit it here, along with your egg hunts and other Easter activities.
