Easter is right around the corner. Here are some fun Easter basket ideas thanks to our friends at Spin Master. We received free products in order to facilitate this review. All opinions are our own.
As our kids get older, the same old Easter basket items aren’t going to do. They’re past the stuffy phase and although they would like a basket full of sugary treats, I’m not cool with doing that. So, I’m always on the look out for new and fun things to put in their baskets. Toys are an easy solution, but there are some rules. First, I make sure they are good quality and not break the moment they use them. Next the toy will need to be something they’ll want to play with year round, not just at Easter. Lastly, they have to be inexpensive. I don’t want Easter turning into another Christmas.
