- 03Pose with children who range from delighted to absolutely horrified
- 04Take scheduled breaks to avoid actual heatstroke inside the costume
- 05Stay in character when kids pull your tail, punch your stomach, or try to remove your head
- 06Wave at every single person who walks by because the Easter Bunny is always happy
- 07Navigate the mall in a suit with limited visibility and giant feet
