10 Things to Consider When Buying an Easter Gift
In search of the perfect Easter gift? Be sure to keep these 10 things in mind while you shop and you will be sure to end up with the best gifts!
1. Respect someone’s religious beliefs
If you are shopping for someone who is not religious, don’t make them potentially uncomfortable by giving them a religious gift. There is nothing wrong with religious gifts, they are wonderful, just be sure to share them with your religious friends and family who are sure to appreciate them!
2. Upgrade Easter baskets
Do your children, grandchildren, or nieces and nephews go on an Easter hunt each year? If so - they need a good basket to catch all their eggs! A great gift idea is to each get them their own nice basket that they can use year after year.
You can even step it up a notch by getting their names added to them! Perfect for remembering whose is whose, and it also makes the gift that much more special!
3. Head outdoors
Once Easter rolls around the temperature outside is finally getting nicer. A great gift idea is something to encourage getting outdoors! A new game, a bicycle, soccer ball, or other similar gift is a great way to start off the season of warmer weather and days spent outside.
4. The adult gift basket
Who said Easter baskets have to only be for children? Why not consider having some fun making adult gift baskets for all the adults in the family? We think a wine and cheese basket would make for a great gift- don’t you? Just make sure you keep your adult and children baskets clearly marked and separate!
5. Encourage spending time together
The best way to do this? With a joint gift! Why not get a gift for the entire family that way they all have something they can enjoy together for Easter. A new board game or deck of cards can help encourage spending time together doing something other than just staring at a TV or smartphone!
6. Shop for the perfect Easter outfit
For many, Easter day is the day to get dressed up in a nice outfit to either go to church or attend a family event. A great gift idea is to get someone a new outfit (or part of an outfit) that they can wear on Easter!
A nice new dress, hat, or button-down shirt makes for a great gift that they can use right away! Plus, this is a great idea for both adults and children!
7. Help record the memories
Yes, everyone has a smartphone, but we all know our pictures just end up sitting in our camera roll and that is it! Are you shopping for someone that loves taking pictures on Easter? A great gift idea is either a Polaroid camera or a printing device that allows you to print photos from your phone.
Their memories will no longer be confined to their smartphone- they can now have print copies that they can display or share with friends and family!
8. Go back in time
No, we don’t mean literally! We think it is a great idea to dig up an old photo from years ago and have it blown up to give as a gift this year. This is great if you are shopping for a family with children who are growing up- try to find a picture from when they were little! Everyone will love looking back and reminiscing.
9. Get creative with sweets
If you do want to give something sweet as a gift (and we don’t blame you!) why not go with something a bit more unique than just a chocolate egg? You can either create your own Easter Bunny cake (for example), or come up with some individual sweet treats- say cake pops in the shape of carrots, or little bird nest cupcakes!
10. Give the gift of decor
Most families have plenty of Christmas decorations, but we find a lot don’t have a lot of Easter ones! A great gift idea is to give someone some Easter (or spring) decor that they can put up and enjoy each year.
This could be a sweet spring wreath for the front door, inside decorations, or even yard decorations- who wouldn’t want a giant Easter Bunny?
