After everyone is done with dessert, everyone eats a small piece of the matzah that was designated as the Afikoman at the beginning of the Seder.

Afikomans have a tendency to become lost or misplaced or -- occasionally -- even stolen! If the Afikomon cannot be located, all guests must look for it. Start the search by giving the youngest people present a big head start and then allow older cohorts to join. Since the seder cannot conclude without the afikoman, whoever finds the afikoman should get a reward.
