Candy Free Easter Basket Ideas for Ages 1-9 (Under $20 Each).

Each year, the Easter Bunny brings us candy free Easter Baskets. The reason why I request their baskets are candy free is because the kids get plenty of candy in the Easter egg hunts we attend or have at our home.

I also requested that the Easter Bunny not spend more than $20.00 each child for their baskets this year.

Please note that the our Easter Bunny searches for and buys items on lightning deals, clearance, and on sale and usually gets them 30-60% off.

He also uses the baskets and Easter eggs that I’ve had for years. I usually buy Easter baskets at thrift stores for .50 cents.

Here’s what he’s packing my kids’ Easter baskets with this year… 

9 Year Old Boy Candy Free Easter Basket

Candy Free Easter Basket for 2 Year old Girl

My 3rd child, 2nd daughter loves her play kitchen. It is the pink wooden KidKraft version. I got it on a local classified with a bunch of food items for $25.00. She spends hours each week playing with it.

Amelia also loves baking with me! Whenever I begin cooking and especially when I get out my KitchenAid Mixer she says, “Let’s play in Mommy’s Kitchen and do baking”. It is perhaps her favorite thing in the world to do. She’ll sit and play for hours.

I’m so excited for her to receive this Melissa & Doug wooden kitchen mixer!
