Baby Hints & Tips

Is there such a thing as a chocolate-free Easter? Lauren helps out families with some gift tips to reduce the sugar hit this Easter – let’s prove that chocolate free can be fun!

Non-chocolate Easter gifts for kidsYou’re standing there at the front of the grocery store and you’re confronted with brightly coloured sugar hits as far as the eye can see! Your kids are sugar high on the very sight of it – but what if you’re looking for some non-chocolate alternatives? I’ve got some great gift ideas for babies (because babies are too little for chocolate), toddlers (because we don’t want to give them too much chocolate) and preschoolers (because have you seen a four year old on a sugar high?). Keep on reading if you’re trying to avoid the chocolate overload come Easter Sunday morning.

More ideas?

  • Anything from the Peter Rabbit range (you can get the entire set of books from Big W).
  • Books about Easter – I love the Very Hungry Caterpillar Easter Colours book.
  • Plastic eggs to find in the garden with small “treasures” hidden inside   These make an excellent Easter Sunday treasure hunt option – fill them with sparkly craft items, fill them with trinkets, lego, jewellery, animal figurines – whatever your little one loves – and send them off on a chocolate-free Easter Egg hunt they’ll adore.
