Saint Patrick's Day is tomorrow, which means it's time to start getting serious about those Easter Baskets! I don't usually have much trouble filling O's basket each year, but sometimes it can be hard to reign it in on things to fill it with that don't involve sugar.

Great ideas! :) I know Charlotte loves chocolate, but I need other things to fill her basket besides sugar. Thanks for the suggestions, Colleen!
Thanks, I was just thinking this weekend, what am I going to put in their Easter baskets this year...
GREAT suggestions! I plan on getting Scarlett one chocolate bunny or kinder eggs but then the rest I want to be non-candy items. I'm definitely pinning this one! :)
great list! I'm doing a small chocolate bunny, but the rest are usually coloring books, crayons/chalk, bubbles, and some other $1 items. I got a jump rope and play pearl bracelet, might try to find a cute little stuffed animal for each girl too.
