It’s hard to believe that Easter is only a few days away. Tomorrow is April 1st and it hardly feels like it. Last year we had ‘Easter Light’ but this year we are going all in. It’s going to be nice to celebrate a holiday like normal again.
Over the past year, we’ve taken steps to get healthier as a family. So naturally, I am focusing on some non-candy gift ideas, though we are also going to enjoy a little candy, too!
Nearly Natural
$89 | Buy hereWe had a hard time choosing a favorite plant from Nearly Natural. They all look so beautifully realistic but never need to be watered! Sansevieria aka snake plants are so beautiful and I love this one so much that I can't decide which room I want to put it in. They may be nearly natural, but they're 100% gorgeous! This would make the perfect gift for a teenager or adult!
Shore Buddies
$19.95 for Emma the Whale or Reusable Straws Having grown up living on a barrier island, the mission of protecting our sea life is important to me. Now you can give adorable gifts that help support the cause! Emma the Whale is made from 6 recycled, cleaned and shredded plastic bottles. When pressed, Emma plays the authentic whale sound. $1 from every purchase helps to SAVE marine life. The company also sells amazing clickable open reusable straws. I love how easy they are to use and clean!
Super Impulse Toys
$10.95 | Buy it hereNo Easter basket is complete without some World's Smallest toys. Your favorite toys and games have gone MINIATURE and kids love them! strong text
Wacky Packages Mini
$5.49 | Buy it here Instead of rotting their teeth on sugary candy and chocolate, get your kids laughing with Wacky Packages Minis. These 3D puny products are parodies of items you find around the house and right now they're a TikTok sensation! Each Wacky Packages Minis cup comes with 5 Mini collectibles, a trading sticker and a collectors guide.
Tea Towels
$12.99 | Buy it hereThese are the cutest tea towels we've seen in a while. They're perfect for the kitchen, but sometimes I use them in the powder room as fingertip towels. These towels would make a great hostess gift!
Super Mario 3D World. + Bowser's Fury
$49.99 | Buy it here This is definitely on my son's wish list! Pounce and climb through dozens of colorful courses! Mario (and his friends) can use a variety of power-ups like the Super Bell, which grants catlike abilities like climbing and scratching. Team up with up to three other players locally* or online** to reach the goal and see who can get a high score.
These are all wonderful ideas. I’m sure my daughters would love getting some new games in their baskets.
Plushies and board games are always great ideas for Easter baskets, thank you for giving me the idea of a video game
These are great! I love the plant idea! Give them a little responsibility too!
These are great other options gift ideas. I love the shore buddies my kids would love this too. Everything is very useful and thank you for giving such a great ideas.
We’re trying to reduce the number we gift, it’s gotten a bit crazy over recent years. Just a few this year thankfully.
We are trying to avoid candies for Easter gifts and these are great lists of gift for the kids. I am sure they will love this, thanks!
I always love to include non candy options, especially for older children.
This is great. A little candy is always nice, but I’ve never been a fan of putting 10,000 calories worth of sugar high in front of the kids for a holiday. LOL
There is only so much candy a kid can eat and it is gone that day. Non-candy gifts make so much sense a nd usually last a lot longer.
I won’t lie, we have a ton of candy on Easter. But I do include other things like gift cards and makeup.
