doi you give easter basket to your kids?  

My children are very much so looking forward to finding their Easter baskets in the morning. We started off giving them Easter baskets when they were babies. My daughter is now seven years old and my son is now three years old. When I make their baskets I fill them mostly with toys and trinkets and just a little bit of candy. They will also have an Easter Egg Hunt at my mother's house in the afternoon where they will find some eggs filled with toys, some with change and some with a little bit of candy.

I used to always fix Easter baskets for my daughters, and like you I recycled the plastic eggs the next year. I did fix up an Easter basket for my granddaughter, even though she is only two. I even colored real eggs for her basket, which I haven't done in many years, it was fun to do that again. I also put in some sidewalk chalk, she loves to play with that.

I don't know if it's right to celebrate Easter that way, I mean the true essence of Easter is lost when we celebrate it with eggs, isn't it? I'd rather explain to my kids(if I ever get to have them) the death and resurrection of The Christ in relation to Easter and celebrate it in a Christian way, that's just me.

Yep... and my youngest is 27! They'd think I didn't love them any more if I didn't make up an Easter basket for them. I enjoy it because I can get them silly things that I wouldn't otherwise. This year it's keychain bunnies made from twisted metal.

hi i make my son to think about things as they have to think about things beyond limit..
