25 Easter Treats That Won’t Rot Their Teeth

25 Easter Treats That Won't Rot Their Teeth

As I walked through the aisles at the store the other day I enjoyed all the fun, colorful Easter baskets, fake grass and eggs. Then I cringed at all the candy. Loads, and loads of sweets.

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE sweets. I send treats to family and clients, and I eat chocolate on a daily basis myself. Usually multiple times a day, in fact. (Don’t judge.) But the thought of giving the kids a basket full of candy made my own teeth hurt. Probably because we are currently trying to wean Kayden off a bucket full of candy we used to bribe her while potty training. She seems to think she needs a sucker every single time she uses the restroom. EVERY single time. It was sooooo worth it in the beginning, but we might rethink this method when it’s Miss Elliott’s turn.

I got to thinking…I don’t want to take the fun out of the whole Easter Bunny and Easter Basket thing, but what else can we put in there so the whole basket isn’t full of just candy?

Here’s my list of 25 things for our kids, which are 2.5 years, and 10 months old.

  1. Bubbles
  2. Play Dough
  3. Fun socks
  4. Toothbrush and toothpaste featuring their favorite character
  5. Underwear with their favorite character
  6. Juice boxes
  7. Puzzle
  8. Baby poof treats
  9. Variety of baby food (hey, babies don’t know any different or care, they like anything!)
  10. Stuffed animal
  11. Bath crayons
  12. Finger paints
  13. Coloring book & crayons
  14. A new Signing Time DVD
  15. Construction paper & child-safe scissors
  16. Wooden train tracks and battery operated train
  17. Chenille stems (pipe cleaners)
  18. New set of felt pieces
  19. Set of foam letters and numbers
  20. Books
  21. Hair accessories
  22. Plastic pail & shovel
  23. Puzzle
  24. Flashcards
  25. Bag of balloons

You can find a lot of these things at the dollar store. The kids will enjoy most any of these items just as much as candy, but the fun will last a lot longer.

What other ideas do you have?
