Easter is on its way!

All of these items were found at Target and this is #unsponsored. So I promise I just picked these things out of love and convenience (Target is pretty close by). All photographs are used in effort to describe the product and are linked below.

It’s always been a long-standing tradition to include other things thank just candy and junk in our Easter baskets. Since we have a large family, we often use holidays like Easter to get necessities that we would buy anyway (new swimsuits, crocs, flip flops etc).

*we have had years of plenty and years of few and we know we are super blessed to be able to fill out kids Easter baskets this way. This post is in NO way meant to make anyone feel some type of way. But it is meant to help with ideas if you’re stuck!

Here are some go- to items that we are looking at to fill the baskets this year.

1) Sidewalk Chalk

If there’s one thing we LOVE to do, it’s be outside. We also love using chalk, but have a really bad habit of leaving it outside to get rained on and ruined. This adorable set is affordable, but comes in an awesome carrying case so you don’t do the rain/ ruin tango like us. Click here to grab yours Here.

2). New Swimming Suit

This one is a need that we can check off the boxes. I’m absolutely loving these suits with the puff sleeves, as my kids have officially started to boycott rash guards, but are pale as heck. This my friends is what we call compromise. Grab your cutie swimsuit here.

3) Sunglasses

I mean, are there any other options for a fabulous 4 year old?! HEARTS ARE THE VIBE

4) Flip Flops

We all need shoes. Controversial opinion, my kids have always loved these but demand as royalty for me to cut off the backs so they make the “flop” sound. You can be the judge of how you destroy the value of a product, but I’m here to say that these do have the allure of “big kids” flip flops with one snip of the scissors. Just a PSA. Grab yours here.

5) WET BRUSH MINI

As a former hairstylist you think my life would be together in our brush game. But guess what. It’s not. We can never ever find a brush. So that means we’re all using the same one. Luckily we haven’t had to battle lice, but if you want to take down the Strickers, that would be our Achilles heel. Because we would all have it in 2.2 seconds. So in order to correct my ways, I’m turning over a new leaf in hopes we can find a brush. This one is perfectly sized for little hands and heads. And detangles like magic.

6) Toy of choice

Ariel is always a fan favorite. And can easily become a pool toy. You’re welcome.

7) Lip Gloss

This one tingles my millennial spidey senses. My 4 year old wants to be just like her big sis. So Lip Smacker is a perfect go to. Add unicorns and it’s everything.

8) CANDY…DUH

Lastly, we know we will be adding candy, because we aren’t heartless humans, and let’s face it, Easter candy is top tier.

Hopefully, some of these ideas are useful, and can translate into a great Easter basket that serves multiple purposes getting us ready for summer! If it’s not your vibe, that’s okay! Leave a comment if I forgot anything, or if you think a 4 year old would vibe with better!
