Fun Easter basket fillers (non-food)

If they're old enough, coins

I usually do a couple smaller toy type things. I need help with the boys!

DD is set with a horse/purse, Hexbug, and stick on nails.

DS1 is almost 9. So, far, he's getting a 3DS game. Then, I'm stuck. And, really, the DS game is more expensive than I'd like.

DS2 is 4.5. So far, he's getting a Captain America button thing.

DS1 is hard. He likes math, Minecraft, Mindstorms, reading, coin collecting, Rubik's cubes. He blows through books and I don't have an idea of what to buy, so we're sticking with library books.

DS2 likes superheroes, dress up.

We are set with outside toys. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Here are some things I've gotten (some may stay in the gift closet for another time):

Water beads
Dino bones that you "excavate"
Sponge animals in capsules
Punch balloons
Whoopie cushions
Japanese puzzle erasers
Sidewalk chalk
Sunglasses
T shirts
Small kite
Frisbee
Seeds to plant
Play dough

We don't do baskets (mostly just the Easter service and Resurrection Eggs) but for egg hunts at preschool, I sent in Dollar Store sports ball eggs filled with Dollar Store dice. Those should be fun.

DS is 9 and will be getting a Dr. Who book, Design-a-pony Rainbow Dash and an xbox points card.
DD is 6 and will be getting an art set I got at the Disney store, a book she wanted on King Kamehameha, and Design-a-pony Fluttershy.

Each will be getting a snap apart chocolate bunny and I'm planning to fill plastic eggs with dollar bills.

The pony is really cute! I totally want to add that for DD!


I added Minecraft T-shirt for DS1 and a Nerf football for DS2.

Today we had to send in plastic eggs with a treat inside to DS2's preschool. I found some little pull back cars in the Target $1 spot. They were 2 to a pack. I got some of the last packs at my Target so YMMV. (They fit in the larger plastic eggs. Not the standard size.) Out of 7 kids, I was the only one who did non food items... Lots of gummy snacks came home.

These look really fun. If you have prime and order today, you can get them before Easter.

I just wanted to post to recommend the eggs are that I linked to. They have been in water for about 2 days and one of them has hatched. They are really cute and fun. I paid $10 for the pack of eggs.
