A "Family" Easter Basket




This year, the Easter Bunny went with a Family Easter Basket. As much as I could picture 4 cute little Easter Baskets on our front porch, the less looked forward to:



individual greed



junk in the house



toys that quickly turn into junk, that I hurt my foot stepping on and eventually throw away







So, the focus on toys as a FAMILY ended up being the concept. It really worked.





I'd meant to purchase a new soccer ball and a new scooter but honestly forgot. Other than that, we got horseshoes, a slide whistle, a couple of wooden things to hang artwork on, some candy, and some toys to share including sidewalk chalk.





It worked!



No crying.


Bonding.


Focus: Family. Love. Sharing.



Other items: New universal remote control, notecards and a new basket for Mama's new orange bedroom! All family members got something - including Mama and Memae!
