This year we are doing sugarless Easter Baskets (at least at my house. What happens at their grandparents is not up to me!). Seriously though, they get plenty of sugar and snacks in their baskets over at my parent’s house so we don’t feel like they are missing out if we skip over here!! To go with my theme of mindful gifting this year, we have picked our favorites for their baskets this year!

Cool Maker KumiKreator Friendship Bracelet Maker Activity Kit

Remember making friendship bracelets as a kid? Well, this fun kit takes it to a whole new level! The worst part of making bracelets was trying to get those knots to stay. This fun kit takes the hassle out of knotting the bracelets. You simply load the string colors you choose and turn the handle to create your own designs. They even come with clasps that make changing your bracelets even easier. Each kit includes:

• 1 Cool Maker KumiKreator
• 88 Spools,
• 10 Clasps
• 20 End Caps
• 26 Clasp Stickers,
• 1 Design Booklet
• 1 Measuring Guide,
• 1 Storage Case

You can find your Cool Maker KumiKreator Friendship Bracelet Maker Activity Kit online or at your local Target just in time for Easter! You can also grab thread refills while you’re at it… I know we will be making a crazy amount of bracelets this Spring Break!!

Kinetic Sand – Sandcastle Set

I love Kinetic Sand. There is something about the way it feels, so calming. It’s also amazingly not messy… which any mom can appreciate. We use Kinetic Sand for sensory play in my classroom as well as at home. It’s a perfect activity for a rainy day or when you’re thinking beach but the weather is reminding you it’s New England!

This set is a ton of fun. It comes with a cute little “sandbox” to play in, solving a huge problem I sometimes have when buying sand. The little molds make it even more entertaining. This is perfect for anyone’s basket this year. Give yourself hours of inside fun that doesn’t involve a crazy clean up process! You can find this kit at your local Walmart. If you don’t have time to hit the stores, you can always grab it on Amazon.

For the Preschooler
