We also hide eggs and candy on easter morning for her to find. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-used-to-get-in-your-easter-basket#post-539892 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 14:46:07 +0000 pui 539892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we were little my mom would buy 3 packages of chocolate easter eggs from Laura Secord and hide them around the house. Then myself and my two sisters would go hunt for them. When we got them all we would split them up evenly between us.</p> <p>When they were popular, my parents also used to get us each a Beanie Baby for Easter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-used-to-get-in-your-easter-basket#post-539832 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 14:29:32 +0000 bushelandapeck 539832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Candy, bubbles, a jump rope (or some other outside activity), and usually an outfit to wear that day. My mom still makes small baskets for us with our favorite candy and usually some socks or earrings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-used-to-get-in-your-easter-basket#post-539719 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 14:13:11 +0000 Alivoo01 539719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nada! =( My parents let us paint eggs, eat Peeps and other candy, and took us easter egg hunting though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-used-to-get-in-your-easter-basket#post-539652 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 14:02:28 +0000 Mrs. Pen 539652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom LOVES giving gifts and always has gone over the top with baskets!!

My mom is excessive though, so she really went over the top. We got tons of candy, stuffed animals, toys, video games, movies, etc. It was kind of like a mini-Christmas. I'm excited to do an Easter basket for my LO, but I'm sure I won't live up to my mom's extravagant baskets! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-used-to-get-in-your-easter-basket#post-539540 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 13:35:34 +0000 KissMeCait 539540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Candy, toys (normally Barbies) and money. My mom was always hid it in the weirdest places too. One year it was in the dishwasher. The next year, in the shower. The year after that, the dryer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-used-to-get-in-your-easter-basket#post-539532 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 13:33:46 +0000 littlek 539532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to give LO a bunny, easter book and I'm not sure what else.

I always got candy and small toy. DH said he only got candy as far as he can remember. </p> <p>What did you get in your basket? What does/will your LO get? </p>
