The kids are old enough that either a committee of the teens or the entire group of teens should be doing the planning & the work, including shopping for the eggs, deciding what goes in them & filling them. With supervision & transportation (or a group walk), they should be able to do all of those things by the time they are 12. You're there to guide them with help planning the Bible study & discussion & to be there at all times to make sure they don't do something stupid, like a group of our Christmas party decorating committee did when I was a teenager. (We sprayed the floor with aerosol snow or something like that. It was a mess & a ton of work for us to clean up.) Teenage aren't known for good judgement, but have to start sometime, learning to do things themselves. You're not doing them any favors if you do everything for them. Another thing you might do is to plant the idea that they could do something for others as an Easter project. It could be dressing up & going to a rest home, arranging in advance for an Easter parade or talent show, even if it's only 6 teens willing to volunteer. They might even want to fill eggs for a group of pre-schoolers & hide them in outdoors or in the kids' Sunday school room. If they don't like your idea, fine. Just plant the seed that they might consider doing something for others. You could even pose it as a question: Would you want to consider doing something for others? Remember: When people learn a new idea, they may first hear the idea, but then they have to get used to it before it's a part of their own minds. So, don't be surprised if they say no now & suggest it themselves at a later date. You've done your part by planting the seed. It either blooms, or it doesn't. Not only that, but their rewards should come from within. Sure, you could bring a treat now & then, but I would make it a little cellophane bag of miniature chocolate eggs & not a major project done for them. My apologies if the teens already are doing this type of planning & service for others. I just reacted to the way I read the question. You're probably doing a great job with the teens. My reaction is just how one outsider sees this, & certainly sounds a bit critical. I wish you the best with your group.

I'd put a dollar in some of them and put various candies in most of them. Maybe put a $5 or a $10 in just one of them to make it a little more exciting. Or maybe since it's a religious thing, buy a couple of those "WWJD" things (key chain, braclettes, etc) and put them in a few.
