You may have seen my post last week on what will be appearing in the girls Easter baskets this year. If not, you can read it here. But when I was thinking of items to go in my girls Easter baskets, I was a little stumped. I thought about things they need, things they want and then things I think they would like. And I figured I would share some of those with you all. Just in case you were stumped like me. I linked to a few of our favorites.

ReplyDeleteSuch good ideas! I'll have to remember this for my nephews
ReplyDeleteAwesome. Glad this was helpful.
DeleteOh these are great ideas. I never really got candy in my Easter basket as a child and the kids all use to make fun of me for it. ha. I have never been a big candy eater so my Mom got me other things. I once got a flat iron in my Easter Basket. haha
ReplyDeleteI always loved my easter basket growing up because my mom always would put in fun stuff other than candy. I can remember getting ALBUMS in them. #oldschool haha
ReplyDeleteSo many great ideas! Toothbrushes and socks are the perfect everyday practical items. Sierra~Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteThese are great ideas! I'm trying to come up with good ideas for an 8 year old boy!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this!!
ReplyDeleteNice! This is perfect for us.
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome.
DeleteSUCH great ideas, Danielle! And dang, I don't think I've ever thought to put PJs in our kids' baskets! I usually put a shirt or dress for each of them, but I don't know why it's never occurred to me to do PJs!
ReplyDeleteYou have so many good ideas! Growing up we always got a little candy and a whole lot of other stuff. My mom always got a good jump on our spring/summer wardrobe for easter, and definitely some sandals and a few toys or whatnot. That is what I plan to do with Zoe too!
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly why I put this out there. It gives so many ideas. I tried to mimic what my mom did as well. I want to keep the traditions going!!!
DeleteThis is a gold mine! Great ideas!!
ReplyDeleteThese are all great idea!
ReplyDeleteLots of fun ideas here! When it comes to little "dolls" or something, I love the itty bitty ones from Hallmark. You can get some favorite characters there!! :)

That is a great idea. I didn't even think about the itty bitty dolls. I will check those out.
DeleteSidewalk chalk was always a huge hit with mine. Last year I got giant eggs and filled with stuff for the college boys they needed like the body wash, shampoo, etc and then I put cash in littler eggs inside it. They loved it. I even rolled up T-shirt’s for each and new swim trunks. This is a GREAT list!
ReplyDeleteMy girls love chalk as well. I love that you still did Easter for the boys last year. I bet they loved it.
DeleteThis could not have come at a better time, as I'm at a loss of how to finish filling up Serena's basket without candy since she doesn't eat it yet. Definitely picking up some sidewalk chalk and her favorite Annie's Bunnies <3

All great ideas! We used to go all out at Easter, but it was getting like a mini-Christmas, so we are cutting back this year. Each kid will get a little bit of candy, a book, something to wear for Spring/Summer, a few dollar spot items, a small outdoor item (chalk/bubbles/ball), and one small item that they have been wanting (like a Barbie or water bottle).
ReplyDeleteSuch cute ideas! Thanks for sharing!
