Are you finished filling Easter baskets for the little ones in your life? With only 2 week until the bunny makes his annual visit, I am just putting the finishing touches on this year's Easter baskets.
We try to go lite on the candy/chocolate; and I am always looking for creative ideas for Easter goodies. You don't have to spend a ton of money to put together a really fun Easter basket. I like to start out with a few must-haves like a sought after toy, book, and one piece of candy. Then I fill the basket with fun inexpensive items (Target's $1.00 section is great for these items!)
Here are some ideas for creative Easter baskets for both babies and toddlers/preschoolers.
