Now that St. Patrick’s Day has passed, my mind is on all things Easter. Truth be told, I’ve been picking up things here and there for the past month for fillers for the littles Easter basket. The Target dollar spot has definitely been my go to for goodies for AG. They don’t have as great of a selection for babies, but I think Luke will be happy with a bunch of teethers. For AG’s basket this year, I’ve decided to go with a gardening theme. She’s been obsessed with going outside and watering the flowers lately. I know she’ll love to have her own rain boots, shovel, gardening gloves, a bug catcher and more. Now, I just need to order and embroider her Easter basket…mom fail!

I always love the idea of including things that will keep them active outside, since Easter is usually the start of warmer weather, so things like a bathing suit, bubbles, chalk, all the things like that you suggested, awesome! And sunscreen, great idea!

love this list! my daughter will be 16 months this year and is OBSESSED with accessories so i picked up a cute bracelet and necklace from Crazy 8, sunglasses, a sun hat, bubbles, an Easter book (Biscuit), a sippy cup that looks like a cute chick, and a little stuffed bunny. i could keep shopping and shopping for things but i have to stop myself!
That list sounds a lot like what Avery’s basket looked like last year. Just wait for the day when she puts on a pair of fake heels with her jewelry, grabs her purse and gets in her little car to go!
