For Easter, I molded candy melt suckers for my grandchildren. It was very simple and I painted the details on them by mixing food colors to the melted candy and painted them on with a fine tipped art brush.
These crayon rolls are so easy to make and you can use any theme fabric that kids like such as Dora, SpiderMan, etc. Here I have made an Easter Theme one, great for the easter baskets.
These are little easter jars. The first was filled with preserves and the other with spaghetti sauce. I got a dollar stamp from Michaels and some spring paper and made these jars for Easter for the grandkids. They were very easy and I love recycling the jars
Jellybeans are expensive when you only need one color, except black. And the kids already get enough candy at parties. So I made 25 carrots out of clear party bags (taped at the bottom corners) filled with Cheetos and tied with green Christmas ribbon (the kind already curled for gift bows). My daughter will take these to school for her second grade Easter party.
It's that time again when we need to be creative about what goes into that Easter Basket so that we don't put our kids on chocolate overload. Personally, I like to put inexpensive toys like crayons and books in their baskets, but recently I was asked by my grandson William if I could get him some coloring pages to color when he had to spend some extended time here.
