Easter is a time of celebration and joy, but it can be difficult to come up with creative gift ideas. While chocolate Easter eggs may be the traditional choice, there are plenty of non-chocolate gifts that can be just as meaningful and fun. With a bit of imagination, anything can become an Easter gift!

Chick and Bunny Sewing Kits
I love giving a gift that will keep them quiet and relaxed for a little while (kind of the opposite effect to chocolate), and this one is a great gift for working together for some quality fun time. My Beans love a craft kit or two and always have such a huge smile of pride once they have completed it.

Rabbits Don’t Lay Eggs Chunky Board Book – Pan MacMillan
What can rabbits do?
Rabbits don’t belong in the farmyard. So it creates quite a stir when Rupert pops up. He tries to make himself useful, but he can’t cock-a-doodle-do like Cockerel, and when he tries to lay an egg like Dora, the duck, it’s a disaster! Luckily Rupert is good at digging, which soon leads to the most unexpected farm job of all . . .
