And some candy but not too much- she doesn't get moderation.<br /> Eta: and piggy paint if I can find it! </p> <p>DD2 (3 months): sunglasses and hair band, bunny angel dear lovey, Easter board book, sun hat (hand me down from older daughter). Maybe I'll put chocolate that I want in her basket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2496255 Wed, 16 Mar 2016 07:51:42 +0000 LuLu Mom 2496255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ended up ordering an alphabet Water Wow from M&amp;D for DD1, I'm really excited for it! And I found some cute princess stamps from M&amp;D that I'm including as well! DD2 has a cute shirt and mostly some snacks since her birthday is this week and she's only 1 ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2496246 Wed, 16 Mar 2016 07:45:29 +0000 Ash 2496246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bump! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469942 Mon, 22 Feb 2016 11:06:04 +0000 looch 2469942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a fractions game that uses eggs as manipulatives, so it's kind of in the Easter theme, a book on science experiements that I picked up at Costco and probably a few other things. It's more for me, I adore putting together the basket and we don't put food or candy in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469491 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 21:04:00 +0000 littlebug 2469491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>D's birthday is in January, so he gets kind of jipped in the way of opening gifts from us for his birthday. We were at TRU today and saw a Home Depot landscaping set that I think we'll get for him. Normally I think big gifts for Easter are a little silly, but he literally opened one thing from us for his birthday. We may continue this tradition - basket of little stuff from the bunny, then a bigger gift from us. I dunno. We haven't decided. </p> <p>To answer the original question, the basket will be snacks and chocolate, one small thing (I got D a pair of sunglasses) and maybe a book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469360 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 17:03:01 +0000 HLK208 2469360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A book, one toy "big" toy (that still fits in their basket), sidewalk chalk or bubbles and a few treats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469353 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 16:48:31 +0000 rattles 2469353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So far, they're each getting a religious/Easter book, a book related to their current interests, a Disney movie, a patron saint magnet, a personalized beach towel, a ball cap/sun hat, a little bubble gun, candy (in eggs), and stickers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469313 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 15:13:13 +0000 hocuspocus 2469313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will be close to 9 mos on Easter. I'm thinking of doing some headbands, a 360 cup, the fuzzy duckling book, a couple little rompers I got on sale, some freeze dried berries from trader joes or some puffs/yogurt bites, and Probably a few empty plastic eggs. I'm so excited! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469303 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 15:03:26 +0000 lawbee11 2469303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't do a ton because I don't want her to expect it to be like Christmas part 2. This year I think we'll do a book, some crayola color bath drops, and some sort of snack like cheddar bunnies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469302 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 15:01:57 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2469302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's getting My Little Pony and a set of Japanese DIY candy boxes, plus a couple Kinder Surprise eggs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2469289 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 14:54:06 +0000 daniellemybelle 2469289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We saved two gifts from Christmas that didn't get opened - the Sneaky Snacky Squirrel Game &amp; a Mr. Potato Head. I have also gotten her a spring themed plate, cup and fork.</p> <p>I want to get a book and a stuffed bunny. We'll do a chocolate bunny and candy in plastic eggs. That SHOULD be it but I am eyeing some other stuff!</p> <p>I also really want to get her a little IKEA table &amp; chair and put her basket on there Easter morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2468274 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 19:48:24 +0000 mrsrain 2468274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Easter book (religious), soft toy, something fun (small game, sidewalk chalk, wind-up toy... Something along those lines), candy/snack, some kind of small treat (cabdy or toy) inside plastic eggs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2468238 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 18:37:59 +0000 QueensBee 2468238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had success at The Christmas Tree Shop! I bought egg-shaped chalk for coloring the driveway, a kids gardening set, some candy, Easter-themed socks, and some National Geographic Kids books on trains, whales, and frogs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2468229 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 18:16:14 +0000 Portboston 2468229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is only 7 months old (will be 8 by easter) so we're going to do bath toys. Ive had some on his amazon list for months and now that he has taken more of an interest in toys (and will probably be taking baths sitting up soon) I want to get them. I also want to get a kids book explaining Easter. We're not practicing any religion right now but I think if we are going to celebrate it, he should know what the holiday means. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2468216 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:55:27 +0000 Torchwood 2468216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got her a little stuffed bunny today. I'll probably add one or two more things. DH thinks it's ridiculous since we're not religious, but we celebrate a secular Christmas, so why not Easter? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2468002 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 14:42:52 +0000 MoonMoon 2468002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always get a reusable cloth basket at like Marshall's, filled with mostly books, &amp; some summer necessities like sunglasses, sun hat, etc. But he's almost 3 now, so I think I'll include some treats in there too. It'll be fun because Easter is on my birthday this year! (Or is it the other way around, haha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467992 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 14:38:14 +0000 youboots 2467992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will be out of town so I'm just doing 2 gifts. A Llama Llama book and a green toys tractor.</p> <p>Last year I just did a few small things. I tend to stock up on things that I like or are a good deal so I usually have a few ready to go items around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467989 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 14:35:46 +0000 blackbird 2467989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hit up the $1 section at target today-sunglasses, stickers, sidewalk chalk....Easter is a few days before her birthday, so it'll just be little stuff </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467963 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 14:16:38 +0000 LBee 2467963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NavyRN2012: Us too! I usually give him all the stuff he's going to need for summer - over his past 2 Easters he's received infant life jacket, puddle jumper, toddler life jacket, iPlay sunhat, swimsuits.... I was tempted to put sunscreen in there this year but thought that would make me worst mom ever. I now see why my mom did it - it's good filler in the basket and it's a gift as opposed to a necessity (which is easier in my mind for some reason). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467960 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 14:15:41 +0000 LBee 2467960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just finished ordering his! </p> <p>An Elmo book about Easter, his life jacket / puddle jumper, his swimsuit, Easter egg play doh, sidewalk chalk, a doctor's kit, and some cars. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467913 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 13:34:06 +0000 NavyRN2012 2467913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: my mom always put our swimsuits in our Easter baskets growing up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467848 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 12:30:40 +0000 tinyperson 2467848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: that is so cute!</p> <p>We usually do lots of quiet church activities in her basket because we have a big church conference the whole weekend...stickers, colouring, foam sticker crafts, books, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2467832 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 12:14:13 +0000 LuLu Mom 2467832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NavyRN2012: swimsuit is a great idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easter-baskets#post-2466221 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 12:53:29 +0000 JerricaBenton 2466221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: How could she not!?
