I like to shop small when possible, so I tend to shop very early &#8211; some of these items I bought last year (lol).  I find that if I shop early and shop for future holidays, I&#8217;m able to combine orders and save on shipping.  It also spreads out the spending and makes things a little more budget-friendly for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both my kids LOVE the egg hunt, so I save most small-ish items to put in the eggs.   I found that the smaller items got lost in the basket and my kids found them more exciting when they discovered the little gifts in eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"824\" src=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"easter basket 5 year old\" class=\"wp-image-824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06324-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"825\" src=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"easter basket 3 year old\" class=\"wp-image-825\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DSC06323-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Easter Basket Stuffers &#8211;
