As you all know, Leighton can’t have sugar because of her teeth defect. So, I’m always looking for different ideas for holidays. Until I had Leighton and then we found out about her missing some of the enamel on her teeth, I honestly didn’t notice how many holidays were geared towards candy and chocolate, but they really are! So…in an effort to try to keep the sugar away, I wanted to share today some great non-candy Easter basket ideas. And I have plenty!
Warning – don’t be like me and go WAY overboard spending way more on non-candy things than you would have bought if you were just buying chocolate and candy hahaha! You know how it is though, you cannot get out of Target without buying almost the entire store, and that’s basically what happened when I went shopping for LC. It was so much fun picking out stuff for her Easter basket though. We only ended up putting one food item in her basket – these Annie’s Cheddar Bunnies. She loves these, and I thought they were too perfect for Easter. A couple of my other favorite easter basket ideas is a candy scented little clutch from Moonlit Lullaby and this little personalized book by state. I was also SO happy to finally find some Easter egg decorating kits that represented the true meaning of Easter. This little decorating kit will be so much fun to play with on Easter day, and it is says He is Risen.

This is such a fun idea! My Easter baskets as a kid always contained fun things as well (though usually a chocolate bunny too). So much better than just a basket full of sweets!

It's really cool how you were able to think up so many awesome ideas that don't involve sugary sweets! I know that even for kids who don't have the same struggles as her, parents often look for healthier options or things that aren't even food-related at all, so this basket is fantastic and so creative!
