My mom always does one for the kids, and it's just overkill for us. Last year I got my DD a small dollar bin stained glass painting kit from Michael's as her Easter gift. I may do something similar this year for the kids! They are 5 and 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-lo-and-what-will-you-put-in-the-easter-basket#post-1445657 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 12:31:44 +0000 mrs. wagon 1445657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love to do some candy for the first time for my 4 year old now that he's older this year, but now he's got a 1 year old sister who would definitely freak out if she saw him eating something she wasn't allowed to have. :( I will most likely be putting together easter baskets with some healthy snacks, maybe marshmallow peeps, and coloring books / crayons / stickers / etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-lo-and-what-will-you-put-in-the-easter-basket#post-1445645 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 12:29:14 +0000 travelgirl1 1445645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: We have a pink Jellycat bunny that makes a really sweet chime sound when you shake it, I love it!</p> <p>In the UK we don't really do Easter baskets, Kids just get LOADS of chocolate eggs with sweets inside and she's too young for that so I not sure what we'll do. She'll be 17 months so I may just put out some of the Eastery things she already has for her to rediscover (colourful plastic eggs, pop-up book, lamb, bunny) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-lo-and-what-will-you-put-in-the-easter-basket#post-1445609 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 12:20:20 +0000 LuLu Mom 1445609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's be getting healthy snacks, a DVD, hair stuff, maybe some M&amp;Ms, and sunglasses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-lo-and-what-will-you-put-in-the-easter-basket#post-1445555 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 12:06:28 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1445555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Easter baskets aren't really a thing here. Kids dress-up as witches instead and go door to door asking for candy in exchange for a drawing or a little song. More like Halloween. </p> <p>DD is now old enough to dress up, but we'll just take her to a little town fair with festivities. The traditional outfit is a little apron with a hanky on the head. I need to find her one soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-lo-and-what-will-you-put-in-the-easter-basket#post-1445470 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 11:42:50 +0000 Silva 1445470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She will be a year old, almost exactly, so getting a ton of stuff for her birthday too! We're probably going to do a couple egg shakers and a chicken puzzle :) Maybe wait and see what she doesn't get for her birthday and fill in from there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-lo-and-what-will-you-put-in-the-easter-basket#post-1445455 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 11:39:20 +0000 bushelandapeck 1445455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will be 20 months.
