Easter Basket

Will u or did u do an Easter Basket for ur twinfants? Mine will be 4 months old soon and wondering if I should make a basket for them...one for both to share or two? What will u put in the basket?

DH said that they won't even notice if we do one or not....true but I don't want my 4 yr old asking why the bunny didn't bring one for brother & sister.

Suggestions appreciated....thank you!

 

I just put some toys in it or some Gerber puffs for mine for their first Easter. They clearly had no idea what it was about.

 

I was going to say "why bother" until I ready your post. If I had an older child I would def do a basket. Probably just one, but that's b/c I can be lazy. Maybe you could get them each a board book (they have some pretty cheap at B&N) and a stuffed animal. I like Rachel's idea of Puffs too. You WILL be using them in about 3-4 months, but they have a shelf life.

 

I agree with Megan, ours were about 3 months for Easter last year and we did not do a basket for them. But we also do not have older children. I would probably do a basket with a stuffed animal, some puffs, maybe some baby food for the future and/or some baby toys and books.

 

I've got mine a stuffed bunny a piece and some rubber duckies for the bath and some yogurt bites LOL (mine are almost 8 months though)

 

I did Puffs, sippy cups, pacis, board books, and various little toys for their first easter baskets. They were about 8 or 9 months old.

 

We're going to do one more for the photos so that when they are a little older we can show them the photos and say, "see, the Easter Bunny knows all about you!"

I bought a few stuffed toys and a couple of small cheap baskets from the dollar store.

 

Mine will be almost a year and we'll do something. Probably an outfit and stuffed animal or something. But we also have an older child that would question them not getting a basket. And we have done separate gifts for the girls since the beginning. I think it's very important to treat them as individuals from the beginning and have our family see the same.

 

I think last Easter (they we're literally weeks old), we did rattles, stuffed animals, hats, socks, & stuff of that nature!

 

For my son last year I just put stuff in it that he needed in the future. Like sip cups, socks, puffs, etc. He didn't use them right away but I was going to buy
them anyway and since I had older children I needed stuff for an Easter basket. I will do the same this year for my 1 1/2 month old twin girls.
FYI...target has sesame street board books and little stuffed bunnies in their dollar section.

 

thank you so much for all the great suggestions!
