Easter Basket Goodies Without the Sugar Crash

Easter Basket Goodies without the Sugar Rush

Since becoming mom, I’ve become less than a fan of “candy” holidays. And now that I think about it, it seems every holiday has become a candy holiday. When Brooke was little, it was a little easier to avoid candy because for one, she didn’t know what it was and B, she didn’t know to be expecting anything.

It’s gotten a little more challenging as she’s gotten older and the influence from TV, other kids and remember years past but I’ve come up some ideas to keep your kids’ Easter baskets from being a sugar crash waiting to happen.
