Basket of goodies.

I feel bad that I think I've waited too long before I shopped some Easter goodies for Caleb this year. Most of the Easter display shelves at Walmart were literally empty, lol! I couldn't find egg coloring kits anymore. I had to go back the following day because I thought I may have missed it. But then one of the associates there told me they ran out of stocks. So we didn't get to color eggs this year. Instead, I opted to get the colored plastic eggs and just stuffed his favorites in there like jelly beans, cheerios, teddy bear grahams, peeps, banana cookies for toddlers and pop rock candies. I did get him a cute blue bunny as well, he didn't seem to much care for that. He went straight to the basket as soon as he wakes up this morning. It was fun watching him enjoy his Easter basket. He loves playing his little badminton set. Well, he loves drumming the coffee table with it, that's what I meant, lol! How about you, guys? What kind of goodies did you put in your Easter basket?

Too bad that stocks ran out. Maybe you could have used colored plastics or watercolors. I don't know though if it will work.

Caleb still looks as curious as he is, Jenn! He still got a lot of stuff after all!

No easter basket in my house but we make sure we instill in our kids the significance of Christ's resurrection. :)

Lucky little boy Caleb, he got a lot of Easter stuffs! I bet he's very happy with it. BTW, I love colorful plastic too. As for my baby boy, he did not get any since we decided not to celebrate it. Maybe next year when he's a little bit older...:-)

Although we'd like to think otherwise, Easter is still very much different here as it is in the US, so no, we didn't get the kids an Easter basket. :P

Your son looks like he loved everything that you put in the basket. :)

Bless said...

He is curious as he can be :-) You still did good mami Jen. We don't have easter basket too, though my girls were able to do egg hunting at their Dad's work place.

Lulu said...

we bought our coloring kit at cvs and other easter stuff because hubby was the one who shopped. if it was me it will just be in the dollar store.

well, though you didn't have color egg kit caleb still got a lot and I am sure it was just alright.

thank you for joining bpc.
