Non-Chocolate Ideas
Not everyone is in love with chocolate (including me). So think outside of the Easter basket for non- chocolate ideas: pens and pencils, stickers, cute post-it notes, flower and vegetable garden seeds , gummies and jelly beans, fun socks– the list is really endless!
The possibilities are limitless and many of these ideas can be bought/ordered and shipped from dollar and big box stores. For adults, fill their Easter Baskets with beautiful plants, garden seeds for growing vegetables and flowers, tea and coffee, or gift cards.
But Remember , if you live with a cat or gifting to someone who does , DO NOT GIVE AN EASTER LILY. EASTER LILYS ARE HIGHLY POISONOUS TO CATS AND EASTER LILYS KILL CATS
