does the Easter bunny still come to your house? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays2 years ago

hello all of my good friends here at Mylot!

Does the Easter bunny still come to your house each year? lol lol

the Easter bunny still comes around to visit each year at my house. each year, my boys get an Easter basket filled with lots of chocolate and decorated easter eggs.

so tell me, also, what is a good idea to put in the Easter baskets besides that bagged colored grass that you can purchase everywhere at this time of the year? i pick up that colored grass months after Easter has gone.

thanks for sharing and have a beautiful day today!

Absolutely. I have a two year old and a husband that thinks he is two years old. LOL. It is amazing how much more energy is put into holidays and how much more they mean now that I have children of my own. Its sad because I had almost lost perspective on what all these great days like easter really mean until she came along. As far as what to use other than grass that is a toughie. I know someone who use to do cotton and dye it. I just use a very limited amount of the grass. More room for goodies that way anyways lol. Happy Easter!


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello babykeka

lol and thanks for the tip about the cotton in the easter baskets. never heard of doing that before. it sounds less messy than the grass does. and i know what you mean when you said that holidays are now very special since that you have a daughter. same here...i have three sons.

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

Yes my daughter is four. So he may show up for a number of years.He tries to keep too much chocolate from my kid. She really ounces off the walls with too much. My daughters preschool came up with a good idea. large white paper bags cut and stapled with a hole at the top to put the eggs in. The kids decorate them themselves. No grass. So no grass cleanup.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello ersmommy

i hear ya about the Easter bunny being around for several more years...how old do teenagers get before that they do not want an Easter basket any longer? never? lol thanks for the tip about making the easter egg holder out of white paper bags.

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

We don't use the baskets anymore because we're all grown up. My daughter and her hubby take turns exchanging them, though.

We just have Easter dinner and I get each person a chocolate egg or whatever tht person's favorite is.

I know what you mean, the colored grass seems to cling onto the house afterwards. I don't know what else you can use except maybe pastel tissue paper?


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello anhedonia

thanks for the tip about using the pastel tissue paper. that is a neat idea and less messy as well. i hate finding that easter grass on my carpet still somewhere in the middle of July.

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

No Easter Bunnies around here, but there are some wild rabbits running around from time to time.

Here in Florida the Easter Bunny doesn't fill kids' baskets with candy and eggs as much as with fireworks. (Can you believe it?)

I'd like to take some of those fireworks and shove them up the parents' arses!They scare the hell out of my dog.

Memo to self: RJ, maybe you can convince Floridians that Easter is about re-birth, renewal, not about $#%A@Q$%#%% fireworks!

No Easter Bunnies at our house either and never has
been..lol

Just a nice Spring..oh so happy Spring is here feeling.

I just place some candy in a bowl for all to share.

I don't get the fireworks thingy..???

Really..on Easter? Wow that is odd.

Rebirth=Fireworks
Rebirth=Fireworks

Nope..I still don't get it..lol

I enjoyed reading your post, thanks for the smile.

Poor dog:( that is really a bad thing for pets that
some people don't seem to think about while letting those stupid things off.

I personally hate fireworks..on the 4th of July they start popping them off early in our neighborhood and
don't stop till mid-month..there is nothing like a good bang to jar you out of a deep sleep.

SO silly.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello rjscott

and so sorry to hear that the parents in Florida put fireworks in the easter baskets. i have never heard of that before. and i am so sorry to hear that the fireworks scare your dog. my dog chases them. stupid dog. haha i do not know what she thinks that they are. lol

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

The Easter Bunny only comes to my house if the grandkids are here or going to be here. Right now I am still not sure if my grandson will still be here Sunday or if we will go to his house Saturday, either way I will get to see him on Easter but I'm sure the Bunny will find him. happy


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello tyc

lol. i sure hope that that Easter bunny finds your grandson on Easter Sunday. haha when my boys go to bed Saturday night, i will fill their Easter baskets for them and hid them both somewhere in the house for them. lol

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

yes he does! i wish it could stay that way forever,its so much fun to see their faces. my 7 year old has asked some things because of kids in school but we covered it and hope we can keep it that way for awhile longer at least until hes 10. i think i get more excited then them but how much fun would it be if they knew.
we don't put much for candy in the baskets cuz they never eat it and they don't need it. plus we have an eg hunt for them which is where they get what candy they need.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello aretha

lol. i hear ya, it is so much fun to watch the children as they search the house to find their Easter baskets that the Easter bunny left for them the night before. and what i do is just put only the candy that my sons like in their baskets. have a beautiful Easter Sunday.

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

We are retired, so the Easter bunny does not come to our house. Also our granddaughter is not even a year old yet, does not have all her baby teeth, so the
Easter Bunny does not come to my son's house either. We were at Superstore, one of the places where the Easter Bunny puts his or her EAster eggs and chocolates, but did not buy anything. For some reason, the store was quite crowded and my husband did not feel like buying anything. Besides if we did, it would be gone before Easter.

I have a 4 year old little girl so the Easter bunny still comes to my house my 11 year old helps out as he knows the Easter bunny personally hint hint.
I don't like my kids to have alot of candy for Easter so I get things like coloring books and crayons, hot wheels cars, bubbles and little toys for them to play with that way they don't rot their teeth.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello luvstochat

and i hear ya, i like putting the same things in my boys Easter baskets as well. and i just put just a few different kinds of candy in their basket. mine like to get some play dough in their baskets also.

The Easter bunny always came to my house when I was young and I remember the excitement I would get so I am going to continue that on to my son. He is only four months old but I made him a little basket with little stuffed animals that chirp and quack. He will love the sounds and love feeling the softness of the animals.
An idea instead of grass, I curled up some ribbon and laid it down in the basket. I mainly did that because he would love the bright colors. It turned out really good.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello bethyboo

i hear ya, the Easter bunny always came to see me and my brothers when i was younger growing up and i continue that on with my sons as well. and awww, how cute that the basket is that you made for your little baby. whoo hoo! you did good. and i love the idea of the curled ribbon in the bottom of the Easter baskets.

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.

I don't think the Easter Bunny knows where wolfie lives, either that or the bunny is too afraid to come knocking at my door in case I eat him up! But don't worry bunny, I don't eat bunnies! But the bunny only comes to your house if you have been good, I have been good honest, you'll vouch for me won't you? Mmmmm chocolate, must have eggs, must! Have a great Easter my friend!


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5721)   ranked 1 out of 51 in celebrating holidays  2 years ago

hello wolfie

lol and i hope that you and your family have a great Easter Sunday this weekend. we are going to go to my sister-in-laws house to eat. we are having an Easter dinner with all of the fixings. yum then later on in the afternoon the children will hunt their Easter eggs.

thanks for responding and have a great afternoon.
