It only feels like we had Christmas 5 minutes ago, but Easter is already upon us.
We all know that kids love chocolate, but when the whole family buys them Easter eggs, it can mean that there is a chocolate overload in the house, so here are some of my favourite alternative gift ideas.
STABILO Woody 3-in-1
The STABILO Woody 3-in-1 are perfect for decorating for Easter as they draw on all surfaces including glass and coloured paper.
They are crayons, watercolours and pencils all in one.
Dino Yogurt Eggs
Fruit Bowl are on hand to help you celebrate Easter with their cracking Dino Yogurt Eggs!
Excavated in Britain, Dino Yogurt Eggs are made from juicy raisins covered in a creamy yogurt shell with red, green or blue speckled yogurt dinosaur eggshells made using all-natural colours.
Perfect for bringing some prehistoric egg-sploring to your little ones Easter Egg hunt or for topping eggstra yummy Easter baked treats for the whole family to enjoy, Fruit Bowl’s Dino Yogurt Eggs are available in Morrisons and Waitrose stores nationwide, as well as on the Fruit Bowl website, (RRP £2.00, 5 pack).
Personalised Puzzles
Book Block have teamed up with some amazing children’s illustrators to create two ranges of personalised puzzles:
Classic puzzles are aimed at 2-5 year olds, where you can add your child’s name and character to the puzzle.
‘Find Me’ puzzles where you can put your child in a busy scene so they make the puzzle then find themselves like Where’s Wally!
Do you prefer to give a chocolate based gift or a more practical gift at Easter?
I love that puzzle! Our kids get too many eggs as family tend to buy for them so often end up with 5 each! I prefer them to have something else, arty stuff always goes down well.
