  2. Planting kit
    Seeds, soil, and a pot to grow flowers or herbs—a gift that keeps growing.

    Tickets for a zoo, farm, museum, or botanical garden (spring themed!).

Learn & Create

Practical & Fun Gifts

  1. Eco goodies
    Reusable snack bags, beeswax wraps, or a fun water bottle.

    Spring stories, nature guides, or activity books tailored to their interests.
  3. Outdoor play gear
    Chalk, skipping rope, frisbee, bug net, or kite for sunny days out.
  4. Cuddly Toy
    A cuddly toy can last a lifetime, a chick, duck or even an Easter teddy is a perfect lasting gift.

Treat Alternatives

  1. DIY Bake Box
    Ingredients and decorating bits for making seasonal cookies or cupcakes.
  2. Healthy snack basket
    Dried fruit, trail mix, popcorn tin — tasty but not sugary.

Thoughtful Touches

  1. Handmade coupons
    Vouchers for fun activities like “one picnic outing,” “movie night,” or “bake together.”
  2. Photo memory set
    Printed photos with a small album or scrapbook supplies.
  1. Storybook & cuddle time
    A new book with a promise of reading together.

Whatever you decide to give as an Easter gift, we hope your little ones embrace it!
