Worked on finalizing our Easter Basket loot over the weekend and wanted to share everything that made our list of ideas. I try to keep my baskets around $50 per kid, but don’t include things that are already on my shopping list for them, in the total. For instance Poppy’s basket costs $93 however, I would’ve bought the rain boots and graphic t-shirt regardless, which brings her basket down to $53.50. The older kids get to $50 a lot quicker, but I wanted to include the same amount of ideas for them, too (it was hard to narrow it down!).
If you’ve already finished your Easter shopping, head to J. Crew for all the adorable kids items that are on sale right now, including swim!
