    Easter is fast approaching, and many people are looking for fun Easter basket ideas. Unfortunately, we associate Easter baskets with chocolates and other sweets, but Easter candy is not the healthiest of treats. Fortunately, there are many ways to easter baskets that are fun and healthy.

    Here are some of the most popular Easter basket ideas and top candy alternatives

    Top Candy Alternatives

    Easter is the second largest candy-selling holiday next to Halloween. While children love sweets, many parents want to limit their children’s candy consumption. So here are a few popular (and tasty) candy alternatives:

    • Dried fruit (banana chips, dried pineapple, dried sliced mango, raisins, etc.) 
    • Nuts (almonds, walnuts, pistachios, pecans, etc.)

    Another option is to create a trail mix for the kids with peanuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, raisins, and dark chocolate (which is healthier than milk chocolate). These items contain antioxidants, vitamins, healthy fats, and other nutrients, making them an excellent replacement for traditional Easter candy.

    Instead of the traditional sweets, consider adding nontraditional items to your Easter gift baskets that are fun and encourage kids to play. Here are a few ideas:  

    • Holy/devotional cards
    • Puzzles

    • Stuffed animals
    • Coloring books
    • Stickers
    • Kites
    • Card games
    • Sports items (baseball, football, etc.)
    • Outdoor games
    • Legos
    • Materials for arts and crafts

    Assorted Easter Basket Themes:

    Here are a few specific Easter basket themes to try:

    A gardening-themed Easter basket is an excellent way to get kids interested in gardening and nature. Garden-related items to include in the basket could consist of the following:

    One of the most popular Easter traditions is the Easter egg hunt with real or plastic eggs. Here is a natural way to color your eggs and fun items that can be added to plastic eggs.

    • Toy cars
    • Finger puppets

    Instead of using artificial colors to dye Easter Eggs try the following instead:

    • 1 tsp natural food coloring
    • 2 tbsp white vinegar
    • 2 tbsp water

    Dip eggs in mixture and let dry.
