As the world around us begins to blossom with the beautiful colours of spring and the air fills with the sweet fragrance of blooming flowers, it’s that time of year again – Easter is on its way! Alongside the cheerful chirping of birds and the anticipation of sunnier days, Easter brings an incredible array of beloved traditions, from delightful egg hunts to scrumptious treats.

One new tradition that will bring joy and excitement to our hearts this year is playing “Where’s Philbert?” with our little ones while savouring the indulgent delights of Purdys Chocolatier Chocolates.

Philbert the Hedgehog is Purdys Chocolatier’s cute mascot. During the Easter season, he stays with families across Canada to observe everyday activities. At night, he travels back to Purdys’ chocolate factory to tell the chocolatiers what treats to make.

Before everyone wakes up each morning, he travels home and can be found in silly situations, often leaving surprises and small chocolates for everyone to enjoy. And, if everybody is well-behaved during the two weeks before Easter, Philbert will bring back all the Purdys chocolate everyone desires on Easter morning.

Here’s How to Play:

  • Every morning during the two weeks leading up to Easter (March 18-April 1, 2024), leave Philbert in creative, silly, and fun locations around your house for your kids to discover.
  • Every morning, help your kids find Philbert and put him back in his designated spot (in the living room, kitchen, etc.)
  • Let your kids know Philbert is there to bring Easter cheer and delicious chocolate.

I love “Where’s Philbert?” because of the surprise and delight of discovering him in unexpected places. From peeking out of a flower pot to hiding behind a cushion or leaving a nice note for the kids in my home office, Philbert’s whereabouts will keep little ones on their toes, sparking delight and endless laughter. It is a new tradition that will unite the whole family as parents and children join in the fun of hiding and seeking, bonding over shared moments of excitement and joy.

You can find Philbert online here, and I am sharing some fun ideas to get you started placing Philbert in cute locations. P.S. You can make it some bunny ears to make it even more fun!
