With colored Easter eggs on their desks and plastic eggs in their baskets, Kiddie Academy of Lakewood Ranch students had an egg-cellent time celebrating Easter.

At the school's annual Easter celebration, held March 24, students snacked on sweet treats, hunted for candy-filled eggs and took photos with the holiday mascot, the Easter Bunny.

The furry white bunny hopped to each classroom to meet with the little egg hunters.
