A FUN-FILLED children’s challenge is taking off for the first time in two years.

Knutsford Bunny Hop is making a comeback on Easter Saturday, April 16.

Families are invited to search for eight bunnies hidden in the town centre.

Each rabbit has a letter on it which together spell a hidden phrase.

“It’s a lovely way to celebrate Easter in the town.

“We would like to remind parents that roads remain open during this event so please keep your little ones close by at all times.”

Children who find all eight letters can pop their completed entry form into a special post box for a prize draw at Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe on King Street.
