As you know if you’ve been following along for awhile, I love holidays, and Easter is the first big one of spring and typically, the first big family get-together since December. Our Easters have ranged from big celebrations with family at my in-laws to small festivities with just our nuclear family during the Covid years. But now that we have a family of our own, I really love to make Easter a special holiday filled with rituals that the kid will always remember and look forward to. This year, I am looking forward to embracing some of my favorite traditions, like an Easter egg hunt and hiding Easter baskets for the kids to find. I have learned my lessons from our Christmas stockings, and have already started shopping for Easter while there are still plenty of cute Easter basket stuffers for kids available. With everyone getting into every holiday these days, things sell out quickly, so I’ve learned to plan ahead (which on the bright side, makes holidays less stressful because I’m not running around trying to get everything done at the last minute). Also, is it me or is Easter super early this year?
I’m excited to be able to decorate our table, cook up a yummy brunch, and to set up our an Easter egg hunt, complete with the kids’ personalized Easter baskets, which always make me smile when I take them out. James and Charlotte now know about the Easter bunny, and I made the mistake of making him sound like Santa in an effort to get them to behave, so now they basically think a furry Santa is coming to bring them tons of presents. So the pressure is on when it comes to finding cute Easter basket stuffers for the kids.
I do most of my shopping online these days as you guys know, and I’ve found lots of cute Easter basket stuffers that will all arrive in time for Easter Sunday. I like to include a mix of fun treats like some Annie’s gummy bunnies and yes, some chocolate bunnies, a few toys that I think the kids will actually use long term (rather than the small cheap toys that provide five minute of entertainment and just add to the toy clutter), and maybe something they need like pajamas for Charlotte and Brooks and James who are all growing out of their clothes so fast and maybe some summer shoes because it’ll be that time before we know it. If you’re starting to plan for Easter, here are my favorite Easter basket stuffers for toddlers and babies.
