Whirly Pop
Blow your kid’s mind on Easter morning. Three days later, find a half-eaten, five-inch lollipop stuck to the dog.
Awesome party favor, by the way.

Old-Fashioned Paper Easter Grass from Germany
It comes in all kinds of crazy colors, which will satisfy your desire to make everything just so. Because, let’s face it, you’re the kind of person who orders a specific type of Easter grass online.
You and me? We should go have tea or something.

The Original Rubber Duck
Enough of these bullshit rubber ducks that don’t squeak. They’re stunting our children. Particularly the part of their brains that perceive squeaking noises.

Sugar Egg
I have lovely memories of peering into the miniature worlds inside sugar eggs, but they’re nearly impossible to find now. Perhaps it’s because they taste terrible.
And yet, it’s impossible to deny my kid the magic of hoarding his sugar egg, until he finds it covered with ants.

Vintage Sand Sifter & Shovel
Once the candy bacchanalia and egg hunting is through, this Easter Basket heads to the playground or beach for sand sifting.
Update: This basket is wee, maybe big enough to hold six eggs or so. Opt for a bigger version if you like to stuff the basket full of goodies.
