This year, I'm really excited! because my kids is now at perfect age, were they expresses their excitement and thoughts about Easter, and that makes me so happy.

Also, I'll be sharing some sweet recipes, tips, and ideas for awesome Easter celebration. Are you excited? Let's go!

Shopping for Easter Basket: I shopped a week before Easter, where mostly are on SALE. Yes! saving money on things you buy is so much FUN.

Tips: Use coupons, rewards cards, and take advantage on store sales and discounted products. Seasonal products like Easter candies, basket and eggs usually go on sale, paired that with coupons. Awesome!

A Perfect Easter Basket: Aside from sweet chocolates and candies that you put on your Easter egg. You can also put some cute little things like hair ties, nail polish, lip gloss, and coins. Make it FUN!

 
My Kids Easter basket in the MAKING:
Now that we got everything we need for Easter Basket. Let's start!
- Lay piece of paper on the bottom of the basket, to avoid Easter grass from falling out. I used two color of shredded paper on mine as my Easter grass. (Blue and White)
- Put a piece or two candies on the each plastic eggs.
-Once the plastic eggs is all filled with candies. It's time to start putting them on the basket.
- Whoala! Easter basket for kiddies is DONE
Tips:
Used travel size lotion, body wash and hair clips to make more fun. Also used your kids favorite CANDIES.:)

Easter Egg-hunt Ideas:

- Invite your family and friends 3-4 weeks before Easter.
- Scatters the eggs before the egg hunt begin. I suggest hide it all over the house, or if you have big backyard that would be great as well. Make it fun and colorful by using different colors of eggs.
- Make the Easter gathering fun, easy and stress free by letting your friends and family bring some dish to share. Yum!
-Enjoy the moment with your family on Easter and have fun watching the kids hunting for their eggs.
