A Tisket, A Tasket, Ideas About What to Put in a Basket

When it comes to treats for Cade and Gracyn's Easter Baskets each year,

I try to be creative!

I'm sure the kids would be satisfied with 4 lbs. of chocolate,

but truthfully they're not BIG chocolate eaters,

it's not ALL that good for their little bodies,

and I am left to deal with the 4 day post Easter chocolate high!

So instead of filling their baskets entirely with chocolate,

I came up with a few fun ideas to mix it up!

- a book

- a new Bible

- a little lotion

{Bath 'n Body Works sells their travel size for only a buck}

- shower gel

- bubble bath

- chap stick or chip chap as Gracyn says!

- sunglasses

- nail polish

- something handmade

{I got this done today}

- something for them to grow

{Lowe's sells little Sesame Street sets

which include seeds, a pot and soil for only $4}

- gardening gloves

- watering can

- flashlight

- bubbles

- a coin purse or wallet

- scented markers

- stickers

- coloring book

- spring cookie cutters and sprinkles,

for the little cook

- gum

- flip flops or crocs

I hope this gives you some new fresh ideas to choose from for

the Easter baskets you are going to fill this year!

I finished up my handmade gift for Gracyn's basket today!
