What I saw were older children rushing to gather as many eggs as they could and younger children crying because they didn't get many eggs. That was when I decided I would make our family egg hunts "fair". Each child has their own color egg and that is what they look for. Once the older ones have found all of their eggs I noticed they would take the younger ones and help them to find their eggs. This family tradition has made our Easter egg hunts easy and fun for all. On those occasions when we have visitors over we just assign them their own color.
