Non-Candy Easter Baskets

Can you believe Easter is almost here? What do you do for Easter? My family and I hunt for baskets and eggs then if the weather is nice we go for a hike.

This is my family last Easter 2016!

 Hunting for an Easter Basket full of goodies is such a fun activity kids look forward to! Did you know that it’s estimated that Americans spend 2.4 billion dollars on Easter candy each year according to data from the National Retail Federation? WOW, that’s just crazy! I had no idea.  And we wondered why the obesity rate in kids keeps going up!  My kids love sweets and are definitely allowed to indulge on occasion, I  wanted to suggest some fantastic candy-free Easter basket ideas that your kids can actually use this spring and summer. From chalk to books, these ideas will encourage your kids to get outside and have some fun. PLUS, you get to avoid that sugar rush meltdown. #momlife This is a win-win Easter plan for parents and kids, so happy hunting!
