What are ya'll doing for your kids for Easter? Do you do the same things for your little ones as you do for your bigger ones?

I give all my kids a chocolate bunny and a bunch of candy. The older ones will get a few bucks and the little ones will get a little toy. The quandry I'm in this year, is where to classify Quin :para He's in fourth grade so I kinda think he's big enough for the candy and money routine, but then I think he'd also like a little toy.
:confused

Pretty much.
We get them all baskets full of candy and a toy. Then they get a big chocolate bunny that they will never finish and it will get all over the house. :newmom

When it was just my oldest I would usually get together with my sister and her two children and take the kids to a movie and then to eat. But the babies are not going to be able to sit through a movie and it is going to be cold in NYC so my sister and I decided that we will get together at her house and have the children make their own easter baskets together it should be fun I am looking forward to it

I've always gotten mine a lil candy (they aren't big candy eaters), a small toy or 2 and some clothes. I haven't gotten them a toy yet....I'm at a loss this year :newmom

I found some kites at Wal Mart for $1 each! There weren't enough styles to get all the kids one, so I'm on the lookout for the older kids a different kite.

I got Zach a couple of inexpensive toys for his basket and some candy. I just got the girls a stuffed animal as they don't have a clue what is going on. :lol

Well mine are all older now so they all get the same amount of candy and I get them a toy and a movie or sometimes a game for their game boys or whatever. When the boys were smaller my son may get a little more or maybe something more expensive. Last year eveyone got an outfit but I was working at Old Navy then I went crazy with my gap discount.

Mine only get their Easter Basket for the Easter Bunny. I give them all the same thing in their baskets. Candy and a few dollar tree toys. They always get a chocolate bunny and a stuffed bunny in there. Nothing major or I would be broke :para
When it was just Caleb and Morgan we went nutts and would put nice $$ toys in their baskets but learned real fast once Shelby and Hanna came along :lol

usually i do a basket with some candy and $1 toys for ALL the kids and then get them each a small thing (whether a toy or a movie) age appropiate.
I have my 3 girls and my niece to get for i do try to keep it with in a small budget
we also usually goo to the beach on easter sunday my entire family and have a bar-b-q but i don't think we will this year as it is raining here and it's supposed to rain ALL weekend...
oh and we do an eater egg hunt and in some eggs we put candy others have money (like 25 cents or pennies)
