If you're looking for something Easter-related to do this weekend, here are some best bets for the holiday:

• Bass Pro is hosting the Easter Bunny Friday. From 4 to 7 p.m. there will be crafts for kids. Then, from 2 to 7 p.m. the bunny will take photos with kids. Picture time is also from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The first photo is free, but you can buy more for the grandparents's fridge door if you want. There will also be an egg hunt at 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday for kids ages 2-10.
• Sci-Port: Louisiana's Science Center is getting ready to hatch its third annual egg-stravaganza from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. There will be an egg hunt using QR codes and clues. Prizes go to the winners. Cost: $9-$13.
• You'll be glad for the complimentary coffee if you plan to head to sunrise service at Hill Crest Memorial Park in Haughton. The Easter service will be in the open amphitheater at 7 a.m., but you might want to arrive a bit early.
