I've had such a hard time with Easter this year! I don't quite know why but it's felt like such a long way off. Then, I looked at the calendar and it's only a couple weeks away. Cue a little bit of panic and a little bit of pulling my lists together. I anticipate that we will still mostly be at home this spring/summer so I'm thinking about what kinds of things would be helpful to make that the most fun.
Here's a little look at our Easter Basket lists for this year. In addition to what's listed, I usually add some sidewalk chalk and bubbles to the basket along with some sweet treats.

Teddy (18-months)
Little Wagon - We have no little outside pull toys, so I think this will be perfect for a busy summer in our garden
Helmet - Ted is starting to ride toys, and I anticipate he will be on a bike by summer, so he needs some protection
Gus (4-years)
Geoboard - I think Gus will love this, and it's great finger work.
Treasure Jar - Nora and Gus will each get one jar from this set. They are constantly collecting so many things and I just think this is a beautiful way to display. I think I'll fill with some candy in the basket.
Scented Twist-Up Crayons - Just a fun art supply, Gus loves some smelly gel pens the big kids had.
Nora (6-years)
Grimms House - Another little lovely creative Grimms piece for our collection. Nora loves this type of open ended play.
Treasure Jar - Again, she will get one jar.
Neon Watercolors - A twist on the normal watercolor paint we usually have.
Henry (10-years)
Illustrated Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - Adding to Henry's collection of illustrated H.P. books.
Lego Budgie - this combines three of Henrys favorite things - the color yellow, birds, and Lego!
Metallic Color Pencils - just another fun art supply.
