So far my 5 and 7yo boys are getting a book each, paddle balls from $ store, magic 8 ball, Matchbox color changers cars. I will probably throw in a small lego kit, new markers, Pokemon Cards, maybe one other small card game or the like. And of course the candy.

So far, I have balloon balls for each kid.

Thanks for posting this! I've never seen anything like that, my DD and DN love playing with balloons!

best bubbles ever are gymboree bubbles. i think $6.50 but so so worth it! great for indoors too even though sometimes they leave a tiny film

DD will be getting two "Songs and Story" CDs that I saw at Target last night. One is Cinderella and the other is The Little Mermaid. Each one has 4 songs, and then an audio storytelling of the story. (There was also Toy Story, and Up, in case anyone's interested. Each one was $4.99.) DD loves stories on CD, and is also into princesses (although she hasn't seen the movies), so these should be a hit. I also got some Tinkerbell pens from the $1 section, a stuffed bunny, and a Reese's peanut butter egg, and a water color paint activity book.

For DS, a board book, and I'm not sure what else yet.

I like putting character bandaids in the baskets. This is something it really bother me to pay extra for but is easier to justify as a gift.

I might start a new thread about these, but I discovered Seeds Family Worship CDs yesterday and I LOVE the music. The songs are straight from scripture (verses put to music) and you can listen to them on the site. Each CD comes with a second identical one to give away, to plant as seeds of the gospel. I'm definitely getting some for the girls and if they come in time will go in the Easter baskets. Here's the site: http://www.seedsfamilyworship.net/index.html
