They might not have factored in Maedhros. Which was kind of short-sighted, in retrospect, but they were only to pull a prank on Maglor! That they involved the glasses was only due to there being a lot of them, really...
For most of the day, it will be impossible to find them, though neither has actually left the castle (there is a line here, a line beyond which the ease of a family, knowing that consequences of what they do will be delivered in a parental manner, ceases, and they won't cross that line) - they just know it very well by now, and there are spaces that a child will find much more easily than an adult. But in the end, they get hungry, and so Elros sneaks over to the kitchen to find something to eat for them.
