    You have baskets full of Easter joy for everyone! Its important to have some candy but I sure do like the other items you are including for hours of creative activity and memories.

    Lovely Easter baskets to make the kids happy and loved ones feel special.

    I love the idea of an art basket instead of the usual candy Easter basket. Although kids love candy, I think that they love drawing even more - plus the gift will last so much longer as the candy will be gobbled up in a few days.
    When our son was younger we always tried to add a few artsy type things to his basket along with a video tape or two. This gave him less candy to eat but months later he still was able to watch his videos & play with his play-doh & other toys.

    Yes, and I better get going on them soon. Thanks for the creative ideas!

    Holidays seem to come around all too quickly - seems like it was just Christmas, doesn't it? Thanks for stopping by and for the blessing.

    Lots of great ideas here for kids baskets.

    No grandchildren here yet, so I think I will probably donate a small basket to the food banks for one lucky child.

    That sounds like a great idea - I never thought about donating a basket like this. I bet the kids would love it!

    My kids love getting art stuff and things to play with outside ... and of course they love the chocolates too, but they love the toys and paints and things we usually get them. I love that you included gifts for boys and girls separately. When you're in the stores shopping it seems like a lot of the seasonal items are geared towards little girls and I have four boys!

    This is actually a great idea for birthday presents too. Kids love the idea of having lots of little presents, and a basket certainly supplies that!

    I agree.One basket I saw had several holidays listed including Valentine's Day. Works well for any gift giving and kids love to unpack the whole basket. I know my grandson gets so excited when there is a number of items packed together. It's so cute to watch him look at everything.

    Nicely done, Gail. I really like the first Easter basket because it is unique and full of wonderfully useful items. Feel free to submit your lens to my group, Easter Time Headquarters.

    What a super idea for an Easter Basket which encourages creativity - well done!

    My mother was a 2nd grade teacher with a master's in art education. She would love this type of gift basket. Thanks for the support.
