Bunny Day was the first holiday in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and it's the game's take on Easter. In the days leading up to it, Zipper T. Bunny will hide eggs outdoors on your island, as well as DIY recipes. This event ends on the day of Easter, so make sure you celebrate Bunny Day before it's over.

Part 1 of 3:
Collecting Bunny Day Eggs
-
Talk to Zipper T. Bunny on the first day of the Bunny Day celebration. He should be walking around your island. When you talk to him, he will tell you around the six types of the eggs; Earth, Wood, Stone, Leaf, Sky, and Water. He will also tell you about how you can find the eggs outdoors and over the island, and about how he has hidden DIY recipes.
- If you can't play on the first day of the Bunny Day, Zipper T. Bunny will send you a letter in the mail explaining everything, along with the DIY recipe for the Bunny Day Bed you would have gotten from talking to him earlier attached.
-
Find water eggs by fishing. Go to any body of water with a fish shadow, and catch the fish like you normally would. If you get a water egg, it will say "That's an egg, not a fish! What should I do with it?", and you should see a purple egg instead of a fish.
- If you don't get a water egg, just try again. During this event, not all fish are water eggs, so you may have to try fishing a few times before you get a water egg.

Look for yellow stone eggs by hitting rocks. This works in pretty much the same as hitting a rock to get iron, clay, stones, or gold, by hitting the rock with a shovel or axe. The only difference is that sometimes instead of ore, you will get a stone egg instead.
- While you will get the stone eggs every time you hit a rock, only about half of what you get will be eggs. The rest will be ore.
- You will still be able to use the money rock. When you hit it, you will only get bells, and not stone eggs.
-
Find the orange-colored wood eggs by hitting trees with an axe. The wood eggs will appear when you hit a tree with any kind of axe, it can be a flimsy axe, a stone axe, or a normal axe. When you hit the tree, you will get a mix of both wood and wood eggs.
- If you get all wood, just try again and you should eventually get eggs.
- Remember that if you use a normal axe, you will end up chopping down the tree when you hit it for the third time. If you don't want this to happen, use a flimsy axe or a stone axe.
-
Look in trees to find leaf eggs. These green colored eggs can be found in trees, just like you would find fruit on fruit trees. To get the eggs, simply shake the tree as if you were shaking it to get fruit or bells. The eggs will drop to the ground and you can press Y to collect them.
- The leaf eggs will appear in normal hardwood trees. It does not need to be a tree with fruit on it already.
-
Find the blue sky eggs. These are probably the hardest kind of egg to find, as you may not notice them right away. They will float by your island in rainbow-colored balloons with presents attached. If you use a slingshot and hit one of these balloons, instead of present falling down, the present will break open and a sky egg will fall instead.
- Remember that you cannot get sky eggs from a normal balloon. They will only come from the rainbow-colored ones.
-
Dig to find earth eggs. These pink eggs can be found by digging up places with dig marks. This works the same way way as digging up fossils does, by simply equipping a shovel and pressing A to dig up the egg. It should then say "Look, I dug up an earth egg!".
- If you end up digging up a fossil instead, don't worry. Fossils will still appear during the Bunny Day event, but if you try again a few times, you should be able to get a few earth eggs.

Collecting and Crafting Bunny Day Recipes
-
Find Bunny Day recipes. After talking to Zipper T. Bunny, he will tell you about how he has hidden Bunny Day DIY recipes all over the island, and that he will he will hide more of them the closer to Bunny Day it is. While there are a few ways to find them, the easiest ways are:
- Find them in bottles along your beach. Whenever you see a message bottle that is covered in what looks to be rainbow striped paint, you know it's a Bunny Day recipe.
- Pop the rainbow colored balloons that sky eggs come in. While these are normally sky eggs, you can sometimes also get Bunny Day DIY recipes.
-
Figure out what materials you need to craft the Bunny Day DIY recipe. This step is often overlooked, but is very important, because you don't want do go out to collect materials and craft the item only to find that you need even more. If you don't want to find the exact amount of materials you need, you can always make an estimate.
- Think about what you will need logically. For example, if you are trying to get a purple water egg costume, you shouldn't be looking for sky eggs.
-
Gather your materials. Because most Bunny Day item recipes only require eggs, you shouldn't have to gather anything else. The only things you should really should be looking for are earth eggs, wood eggs, stone eggs, leaf eggs, sky eggs, and water eggs.
- Because the Bunny Day eggs are found in places where you would be getting other materials, you will end up collecting a lot of other materials anyway while collecting the eggs.
-
Go to any crafting table and craft the item. This can be Tom Nook's workbench, a villager's workbench, or even any DIY workbench that you may have crafted sometime earlier. Once you have found your workbench, simply craft your item.
- If you have a lot of DIY recipes, it will be hard to find the right one. To make it easier, head to the season items or craftable items.
-
Know that you should now have the Bunny Day item. You can use it for decorating your island, wear it if it's clothing, send it to someone in a letter, or anything else you might want to do with it.
- If you make one of every Bunny Day DIY item and then show Zipper T. Bunny on Bunny Day, he will reward you by giving you the DIY recipe for a wobbling zipper toy.

-
Head over to Nook's Cranny to buy the Bunny Day seasonal items. As of the new update, there will now be new seasonal Bunny Day items at Nook's Cranny, including Bunny Day Candy or the Bunny Day Planter Box. Each day, you will be able to buy one of the five new seasonal items that have been added.
- The seasonal Bunny Day item they are selling everyday changes each day, so buy it when you can. You don't want to miss out on anything, so be sure to check back everyday.
-
Look at the seasonal items section of Nook's Cranny once you are in the shop. This is the blue wooden stand that appears only when the shop is selling something seasonal. On top of the stand should be one of the five seasonal Bunny Day items.
- The five different items that Nook's Cranny will be selling are the Bunny Day Candy, the Bunny Day bed, the Bunny Day Tree, the Bunny Day Garden Flag, and the Bunny Day Topiary.
- If you buy one of a certain Bunny Day item, you will be able to buy more of that item from your Nook Shopping catalogue.
-
Buy the bunny day items. If you don't have enough bells, you can quickly make some by finding the money rock, digging up the 1,000 bells that appear on your island everyday, or by selling some extra things you don't need anymore.
- The most expensive of the Bunny Day items is the Bunny Day Tree, which costs 3,800 bells. That isn't too many bells, so you should probably have enough money.
-
Enjoy your new Bunny Day items. You can buy more of them, use them for decorating your island, send them to someone by mail, or anything else you might want to do with them.Advertisement
