Easter ideas instead of eggs please?

Hey how bout gettin hard boiled eggs, loadsa glitter and paint and u can help them decorate the eggs for easter?? as for a presie u could get them the little easter bunny teddy bears you know the ones that make noise when u squeeze there tummys hope this helps x

you can get some really pretty decorations for easter these days and start building them op a collection. there are also jelly eggs that are an alternative. How about a farm visit to see all the baby animals that are around at this time of year too.

Does it have to be sweeties? Maybe you could get them a game or a dvd, or take them out for the day instead.

You can try to find some marshmallow bunnies? If lollies aren't an option, try to find his favourite toy...make it the brightest, happiest thing you can find!!

When my kids were learning to read, I'd put a basket by their bed, with a clue in it. They had to figure out what it meant, and there'd be a plastic egg and a new clue there. Things like, to find an egg just for you, see the light and get a clue. And there'd be an egg and a note by the lamp. WARNING: do this just once, and it's a tradition. I had to keep it up until my youngest was in High School. I'd put nuts, raisins, cheese crackers, etc in the eggs. They'd eat breakfast, and not just chocolate, because it had been left by the Easter Bunny. They always got a toy and a book in the basket, too. Socks, a new toothbrush, anything that fits in the basket will do. My son has food allergies, too. It's amazing how exciting a toothbrush is, if it has a picture of Bugs Bunny on it, and it's left in a basket on Easter morning. Before they could read, I'd put different stickers on the eggs. His had stars, hers had flowers, etc That way they each got to find the same number of eggs.

Check the dairy/soya content of white "chocolate" and marshmallow "peeps". Easter basket ideas: small toys w/ Easter theme. Shaped crayons, colouring books, paint books, story books. Small games, glitter bendables, puzzles, stickers, paper dolls, small musical instruments (slide whistle, recorder, harmonica, Zills (finger cymbals), castinets), homemade egg-shaped cakes, coloured eggs, bracelets, rings, small lego figures. (Note: many of the latter will fit in plastic eggs from the dollar store). Happy Easter!
