Easter Basket Ideas for Little Kids (Age 2)…

….

Putting together gift baskets is a favorite of mine especially since having Emilia. Finding cute little kids gifts is so much fun and she is always so happy and excited when she gets a basket for a holiday.

So since Easter is next week already I am in full force preparing Easter content for you and this post might be one of my favorites so far. We don´t want to go overboard for Emilia´s Easter presents cause it was her birthday a week ago and she got so so many gifts plus in my opinion it should have good size to hide outside.

What to put into a kids Easter basket

I always try to add as many different things as possible to my baskets so for Emilia´s Easter basket I went with a bunch of cute little things:

Sidewalk chalk // This might be super fun for Spring and Summer. She loves to draw and paint and this way our little artist can draw outside as well.

Stuffed bunny // A little bunny is a must in my opinion so I got her this cute little fellow. It is super soft and so sweet.

Easter books // Emilia loves books. Any kind of book she goes crazy about so I went with these two Easter themed books she will really enjoy.

Chocolate lamb // Of course we need some chocolate for Easter. I am not going to fill the eggs for our Easter egg hunt with chocolate so this little pink lamb will have to do the trick.

Peter Rabbit Tonie // Listening to music or stories on our Tony box is always a huge hit. A Easter themed Tony like Peter Rabbit who is telling all the stories of the characters from the Peter Rabbit Easter book I got her last year will hopefully be as cute as the book and bring some Easter spirit.

Doll clothes and sleep sack // Emilia has become a real doll „mom“ recently and loves to care for all of her dolls so I got her a sleep sack to put her favorite doll to sleep as well as a surpise egg with an outfit for one of her little dolls.

Easter themed cookies // I have found these little carrot shaped cookies at our local drug store and thought they would be great to fit the theme and also a great alternative for chocolate.

Other things which are great to add are little figurines from Schleich, Duplo or Playmobil 123 or clothes. For Spring themed things are really nice as well as pieces for swimming. Sandbox toys are also always a big hit. 

Are you already done prepping for Easter or are you still looking for the perfect pieces for your kids Easter baskets ? The basket I am using here is the same I have used for the Valentine´s Day things. I got it from an Etsy shop. You can order it here.

Knits and Denim for Spring…

….

Getting dressed has become a little harder over the last few months but I am still finding cute things and am managing to style it properly for the season.

A dress is my number one choice these days as it is super comfortable and easy to style. Hopefully the weather will get warmer soon so I can get back to wearing dresses every day. We had lots of snow over the weekend and it´s still cold out. 

Spring has never been my favorite season to dress but with all the cute colors out there it is definitely easier. A knit dress is a favorite of mine and so easy to style plus it will keep you warm on those colder days. The zipper style is quite sportive so I went with the flow and added a pair of white platform sneakers to the look. The denim jacket and the blue straw handbag add another casual vibe to the look. Overall it was a very cute and comfy everyday style. 

Continuing with Easter inpso tomorrow. I still have a  lot up my sleeve to share with you. See you soon.

Delicious Bunny Bait as an Easter Treat…

….

With Easter right around the corner I just can´t wait for all the delicious treats that come along our way and also for our big Easter brunch. I still have some other recipes I wanted to share with you but I couldn´t wait for the Bunny Bait cause it is so easy, funny and yummy plus it is amazing to gift to your family and friends. 

Colorwise there are endless possibilities but to make it Easter appropriate I went with green, yellow and orange. It looks so beautiful and springy I just love it. 

For our Bunny Bait I have used:

– mini pretzels

– macadamia nuts

– oat pillows 

– sprinkle mix Easter themed 

– crunch balls 

– M&M´s 

– white choclate

Quantities aren´t really that important here. I have used one cup of all the main ingredients and the sprinkles and M&M´s just to cover the crunch.

You can add and take away as many as you want. I have also made a Reel that you can watch on my Instagram account if you are interested. 

First I mix all the dry ingredients, then I put in the chocolate and stir, stir, stir. After that I spread the whole batter on a sheet pan and evenly distribute the sprinkles, crunch balls, M&M´s and everything else you want to use to decorate. Now you have to wait until the chocolate hardends. It can take up some hours. 

Then I break it into little pieces to put into Weck jars to keep it fresh or if you want to gift it you can put it into little paper or plastic bags. Also if you want to gift it for Easter you can definitely put on some bunny shaped tags.

What I wear in a week #reallife – #26…

dress H&M / denim jacket C&A / handbag Katie Loxton / block heels New Look

….

It is incredible I got a fourth blog post up this week. The last two weeks have been a total doozy. I got Emilia´s cold and was super sick. Couldn´t sleep from coughing at night and from ear pain and a sore throat during the day. Emilia has been at her grandma´s most of the days and I still couldn´t get better but there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel. I have gotten so much better the last two days!!

Anyways let´s have a look at the last looks I have been wearing. They are in no way all from this week but collected over the last two and a half weeks. All themed Spring (although it has started to snow today and will do so through the weekend) and colorful and light.

Obviously I have a thing for reds and pinks cause these have been my most worn colors throughout the last few weeks. People always think because of your red hair you can not wear corals, red and pinks but that is just not true. It always depends on the shade of your hair and then you can choose which hues work for you or not.
