This weekend will be Easter which has come around pretty quick.
Last year I shared with you what was in Blake's 1st Easter basket,
I have done one once again for him this year as I love the tradition.
Last year Blake was 4 months old at the time and I picked out bits that I knew he
would get use of. He still loves the books and the ball set we had got him.
The only things he doesn't use anymore are the inkless print set as it was a one off thing and
the sock on's as he out grew them and are longer needed.
So here is what is included in Blake's Easter basket this year:
As Blake loves books it is why I chose for his basket to have mainly books.
He loves to sit on my lap and snuggle up as I read him a book or two.
I picked out the Dvd as I love peter rabbit when I was younger and want Blake to enjoy
Beatrix potter too.
The cute little rabbit in a carrot is cute little gift idea which I had to include.
I'm looking forward to giving Blake his Easter basket on Friday and then snuggling up with him reading his new books and watching some of stories from the DVD.
We didn't include chocolate in this years basket as Blake tends to be fussy and
sometimes he likes chocolate and will get it all over himself. Other times he's not
keen and just chucks it on the floor so it would be a waste.
If you have kids will you be doing a basket this year for them?
If so I'd love to see what you have included.
Aww that's a sweet basket. He is going to be well and truly spoilt this Easter! Fab that there is a selection of books and a DVD rather than just eggs.
ReplyDeleteI love making up goody bags or baskets instead of just handing over an egg. It makes it so much more special X
ReplyDeleteThats a great selection of books, my kids love them too. We have the Beatrix Potter books which we love and have been meaning to get the dvd, enjoy your snuggles, books and dvd! :)
ReplyDeleteAw you got some lovely books. I've since bought a pepper pig Easter egg Hunt book from Amazon to add to Rosalie's basket x
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely Easter Basket. I keep seeing them around, now I'm feeling a bit left out ;) Must make one of those too. x
ReplyDeleteAww I do love a good Easter basket. I've made it a tradition too. For my babies first one which is this year I've got her a teddy, a buggy book, a book and a dress. All Easter themed x
ReplyDeleteI love books so no doubt when i have kids I will make a basket too and put those in - especially as I don't necessarily want to include just chocolate (if any)!

Your Easter basket looks so good! I love the selection of books you've chosen.
ReplyDeleteI am doing an Easter basket this year, although haven't decided what I am putting in it yet
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this version of an Easter basket! We love books here and always prefer getting books or a good DVD over sweets! Hope your little one enjoys it all!xx
ReplyDeletePeter Rabbit is my absolute favourite too! The basket is lovely I especially love the amount of books, kids really can't have too many. We love story time
ReplyDeleteGreat selection - I love that you have included so many books :) H x
ReplyDeleteI love the choice of books for the his basket, my little girl loves Duggie x
ReplyDeleteWe've not got a basket but we have got them eggs, nighties and books. We're not organised enough for a basket!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable basket. I'm afraid my poor kids seem almost deprived in comparison. They get one chocolate egg each. That's all. Maybe I should make a bigger deal of it?
ReplyDeleteI like that you have included books in the basket and Peter Rabbit is an absolute classic as the others said!
ReplyDeleteBOOKS!! An Easter basket isn't a basket without a great selection of books. I love it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute selection of items! Hope you have a lovely easter!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely Easter basket for Blake. The Beatrix Potter DVD is such a lovely addition. I hope he loves it :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a lovely idea, I have never done an Easter basket for the kids. I think this might be a tradition we will jump in on. All those lovely items will definitely last longer than any eggs! x
ReplyDeleteI've not even thought about putting an Easter basket together for our little boy. We did one at Christmas. I love what you put in the one you've made up for Blake.

I love the inclusion of The easter story, what a fabulous basket x
ReplyDeleteI love this idea, and the books look fab. My fave bit is the rabbit in the carrot though, so cute! x
ReplyDeleteI love your basket. I think the Beatrix Potter DVD would be great, I love the old fashioned version
ReplyDeleteA lovely basket - Pickle is 3 now so did have rather a lot of chocolate! As well as some clothes and a gorgeous soft bunny and personalised book. Happy Easter! Kaz x
