I made her basket up the beginning of March but have taken it apart and put it back together probably 3 times now. I decided to do a Doc McStuffins theme since she really likes the show and I wanted to get her a Lambie. Here's how it turned out:
This is before I started messing with it:
I thought it needed something so I pulled out my stash of ribbon and tied some around the top. Also, I had saved some tags off of some Doc McStuffins tees, trimmed one up and glued it to a ribbon on front. I got the basket, grass, eggs, candy, peeps and chocolate bunny from Walmart for around $9 total (the bag of Easter candy was $3 and only some of it went into the basket). I put the candy inside the eggs with the plan to hide them for her after she opens her basket. The clear wrap and purple glitter bow (which was a pack of 3) came from the dollar tree for $1 a piece. I got the Lambie from Amazon for $11.95 which was too much since I've seen these at Walmart for around $8 and at Kmart for $7 recently. I ordered a stuffed Doc for her off of Kmart for $7 but when my order arrived it was Chilly. I kept him since I was already looking for him (the website said out of stock) but I just didn't feel right putting a snowman in an Easter Basket. I found a Doc McStuffins coloring book on Amazon for $4.49 that had double-ended crayons attached to the front. I was really surprised how well made it was and I'm thinking *maybe* my toddler won't have it torn to shreds within minutes. Next up I found a Doc McStuffins Little Golden Book on Amazon for $3.59 (I've seen them at Walmart slightly cheaper). It's the only one they have right now but I see another one is being released in July and is only $2.30 for pre-order. I'm glad to have found the Little Golden Book since all the Doc Mcstuffins books I've seen are paperback. The large plastic egg in the basket is something I actually already had laying around. It's got tiny markers and egg decorating decals inside.
I was really happy with how it turned out and can't wait to see her face Easter morning! Here's a picture of her last Easter which was her first:
What's in your kids Easter basket this year and did you have a theme?
