What age did you give children chocolate Easter eggs till?

Spendless

Just curiosity really and partly due to a story I read elsewhere. Unsure if this has ever been discussed here  I continued to get Easter eggs till quite a late age, well into my 20s, and used to get some Easter money too. I always put this down to my sister being 7 years younger than me and relatives not wishing to miss me out when I still lived with parents. Today I discovered because my Nan used to still send them my Mum felt she should do. Can't remember when they stopped but guessing when I had kids. I do recall my DD 15/16 in her last year at school and not having a great time in her life, feeling a bit left out when she wasn't bought any from family members  because her brother was now at Uni, her point being that when he had been the same age  as she then was, he still received them from relatives.

So I continue to buy for both my kids and also DS gf though they are 20,23, 24. I even did an Easter egg hunt for them (though DS wasn't overly enthusiastic -hahaah) and his fiancée finds them good fun because it wasn't really something she ever did as a child.  I stopped for extended family members once they passed 18 but there was no younger siblings in these cases, only children/twins.

It’s something we have never done in our family, never had an Easter egg and don’t give any to anyone.

My two are in their 20s, it’s just an opportunity to treat them at a point they don’t have much spare cash. One is vegan and I can add nice vegan eggs to my supermarket order. I sent the other some cash rather than post an egg and they bought some fancy biscuits instead.

My Mum still gets me and my siblings one, I'm the youngest at 40, my eldest is 54. They are only a cheap £1 though

I don't think my mum ever bought Easter Eggs, definitely not before Easter, maybe afterwards if they were reduced ... Both my grandmas died when I was quite young but I don't remember either of them buying for us. Any eggs would have stopped when we left home, I'm sure. 

However, MIL still buys something for all of us. She would buy eggs but thinks that most of us would prefer a selection, and she bought BIL nuts because she knows he has to watch his sugar intake. She was slightly concerned that two of the boys would feel deprived because they have Significant Others and one does not, and they all got the same. So I told the single one he'd got to share with his housemate, which I think he would have done anyway. 

She made sure to buy herself a box of Lindor. :-)

Mine are in their 20s and still expect an Easter egg (as well as a Christmas stocking - though obviously not at Easter!)

I'm 44 and still get an Easter Egg and a Christmas stocking. I have to buy my own advent calendar though.

Never bought Easter Eggs, my kids preferred to get a book.

My last Easter egg was at around the age of 10 and I haven't been given one since then. Similarly Mum stopped doing Birthday or Christmas presents from the age of 18 or so.
