Those are great baskets and I love the umbrellas! I did that when my oldest was young. I wanted hers to sit up straight so I found a short, sturdy bowl and put the umbrella in that. It held the umbrella straight and you couldn't even see the bowl underneath.
I love all the books! and now at the end of the video. Judy Bloom and Miss Parent got me to love reading in the 80s. I was in 4th grade. I was 10. Miss Parent read to use every day and on Friday we got to sit on the carpet and she read, "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing". I started to read Ms. Blume's books on my own. At 50, I still love to read. WAY TO GO, Mom!
I love using something that can be used for a basket rather than a basket. Umbrellas are a great idea! I remember when I was little my Easter basket was ridiculously huge filled with candy! It was like Christmas lol. I would get one from my parents, 2 aunts, and grandparents.. I had way to much lol. Also you’re so funny and honest, I LOVE that 😂 "It’ll just get thrown away" SO TRUE! No one ever talks about how most of these Easter basket things get ruined the first day and get thrown away... buts it’s true lol. It’s still always fun to get the little eater type things though! My 2 year old is ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED with toy story!!! If he sees anything toy story in stores he has to have it lol. He has both buzz and woody pjs and always wants to wear them I have to wash them everyday 😂 Books are always my favorite thing to put in eater baskets, it’s the one thing that makes it through the first day! (I got my oldest daughter the level 1 books and I couldn’t read half the words) 😂
OMG I saw my favorite you tuber in the wild. I saw our Kim where you ask. Wait for it ..... at Costco. I spotted her and wasn't sure at first but she was rocking her blue purse. She is sooo beautiful. We all know she can talk, but in my excitement I don't think I let her say anything lol. I think i've might have squealed. She gave me a hug and everything. She is so sweet. I think I told her that I watch her all the time and she makes me so happy. I swear I was getting teary eyed. I didn't want her to think I was a crazy person so I just said some stuff and walked away. I don't even know if I said bye. So Kim if you see this it was so nice to meet you and I swear I'm not a pyscho I was just so excited to see you. Next time if I see you i'll control myself. I told my kids as soon as I got home. My son asked me if I took a picture. uh no look at me I look like a hot mess lol. Awe and she is really petite.
Oh my word Maria! You are just the best! I'm so glad that we ran into each other! Thanks so much for your kindness!! You are so awesome I sure we will see each other soon!!
First time watching your channel and I just love your personality! Also those Easter “basket” ideas are super cute and reester bunnies are where it at!
I literally don’t have kids so this video doesn’t even apply to me in anyway. and I’m not even sure how I found your channel a while back. But there’s something about your videos and personality that calms me and I enjoy. This video makes me want to make Easter baskets for my dogs lol.
Fun baskets! My kiddo's much older (16) so we normally just do a big chocolate bunny, but she's also on a health kick, so I wanted to come up with something not-candy. She's pretty artistic, so I ended up getting a pair of white canvas shoes and a set of fabric paints.
Love that you got books and activities instead if just crap... Ourselves usually ends up with a bit too much crap. 😂 I try to steer away. I got some jumpy bunnies and fairy garden stuff. I have a bunch of " crap" that I got in clearance last Easter for like 10¢ each... Actually some was 5¢ no joke. Crazy... There is a paddle ball thing. Some eggs that I think hatch dinosaurs. Erasers and other crap we don't need. 😉 We always try to do things like gardening stuff for fairy gardens since it's outside things. The girls have fairy gardens they add to every year. we actually have seeds of fairy garden stuff that never even made it outside last year. 🙄
Love the idea of using umbrellas and everything you have included. My kids are adults and I do have a granddaughter, they still get Easter baskets. With reference to all the pieces you included, will keep them busy over the Easter Holiday and you have included books. Here in England they are off school for 2wks, I don't know if it is the same for you. If you are stuck for your eldest and she is creative, why not get her a craft project. They are all over our shops at present, sewing, paint a birdhouse or moneybox, something like that. TFS. xxx
Reasons for this being the one and only video of hers I watch: 1) Said she has a favorite child. 2) Got a lot of stuff for her younger kids, not as much for her oldest.
Only reason my kids got bubbles it's bc of cat loves them . toothbrushes are great ideal !you really did good Kim .lots great stuff just right amount of candies i would think ,kids are going to be so excited keep them busy till they go back to school.
OMG..... I had those Judy Blume books! The original books...... Takes me back! I remember Are you there God its me Margaret the most. Good books to grow up on. Hope she likes the book.
Those are cute ... they are very lucky kids to have a mom like you ... I used to go crazy on my kids Easter baskets when they were younger ... they're too old for them now ... I still do get them a chocolate bunny and some other candy and a gift card ...
My parents always filled our baskets with a mountain of candy, I only give my kids like 3-5 pieces of candy cause I’d rather buy things for them to enjoy and yes they get even more candy in the egg hunt. We did tooth brushes for our kids too! Love your “baskets”
So cute these books are very nice with a great gift's you're so sweet I know that your kids are going to love everything you get them eat one of the candies for me
How do you spell your oldest's name??? I 💗 it....have you ever done a video telling how you chose the names for your kiddos?? Would love to hear about that. TFS!!!!! Floam is a brand name for the play foam😉
We are ALL your friends and we expect to be invited over sometime soon so start planning. haha Seriously though, you have no idea how much happiness you and your videos give! :)
So we are doing umbrellas this year too but we are also doing rainboots. Talk about overboard. Whoops. I'll probably just fill the boots with candy and then try to avoid eating it all. These are adorable!!!
I love all you got for their Easter umbrella’s. Great ideas!!!! I wish the Target $ spot was around when my kids were little 😂. Have an awesome day!!! ☺️💕🌷☂️
I literally watch you everyday multiple days in role I can't stop I hope we can meet up one day I love seeing what you get your littlest oneines the Same age and it's easier
Love this as usual! Your hair is getting so long! When I first subscribed you had your short little bob. It looks beautiful. I’m totally and completely done with my girls baskets but you’ve convinced me to take another trip to target because why not?
What a great deal on the books 😍😍 I'm always looking for a great deal on books ill have to check there ! Love the umbrella idea I told my husband this year I want to do the boots and clothes 🤣 kids can always use clothes right ! Dont get me wrong they will each have one little bunny lol. They just dont need anymore toy stuff 😭🤣🤣🤣💖💖💖 great video it is a mouth full for sure to get the kids ages out 😂 i do it all the time !!
My MIL did the kids baskets in cowboy boots this year. I just went with a basket and mostly toys. It's her first celebrated Easter. I think I'm gonna have to go back for some bigger eggs or smaller egg stuffers though.
So many cute things! I crack up everytime I see the 'Reester bunnies' because I for some reason want to call them reefer bunnies, for when you get the munchies haha!
A toy that ends up in the garbage 😂😂 Your so funny just discovered you not that long ago and I am Obsessed!! Also love How your changing it up Instead of A traditional Easter basket!💗
Your Cadbury creme eggs have the original foil packaging and old school colors from back in the day?!!! So cool!! Maybe it's just in Canada, but they've swtiched to this hard-ish plastic cover, and I haven't seen the original primary colored ones in years! I'll check my stores, maybe they're going with a retro theme this year. :)
Gee willikers!!!! Omg I said that the other day and my son could not stop laughing! Hahahaha Fantastic Mom'ing with the easter "baskets" ready almost a whole month in advance!!! You go glen coco!!!
Hey Kim great job I loved the basket just as much as last years basket I’m struggling to decide between the rain boots or umbrella 🌂 🧐 I am do both 🤷🏽♀️
Awesome Easter basket ideas! I am so late to game with getting my kids’ Easter baskets together. I just loaded my recent Dollar Tree haul on my channel and I am scrambling to get everything together in time. I love your channel and its content, such as inspiration. Keep up the great work on your content!
Growing up I had Easter baskets but they were empty. My mom never filled it. We would just go to my grandparents house for Easter egg hunts. And if you found the large white egg you were good! Because it had money lol it wasn’t a big deal for us kids.
Love the umbrella idea! I would have loved that as a kid. I used to play monopoly by myself too. But I would set up the whole board and play different pieces. Lame!
Good morning my funny friend!! I don't have little ones anymore, so sad!! When they were young though, I always went way overboard!! It was kinda traditional for me because my grama did that for me when I was young. I am definitely a Reese girl!! The white peanut butter eggs are life!!! Love the idea of all the toys and the umbrella is so stinkin cute. Such fun goodies!! Have a great week friend!!
Easter is so late this year! You have plenty of time.I got a new jump rope every year and a little candy, not a lot. Now no jump rope, just candy!!!! Cadbury mini eggs!!!!
Video for this year? I'd love to see! These are very adorable though! I heard of Umbrella baskets but my favorite is rain boots but my kids all love rain boots..maybe together would be a huge hit! lol But I have 6 kids to buy for..Wowza lol
Love your ideas! About the library issue though... A lot of places have an app you can download for free to read ebooks from the library. You should ask your local librarian about it. Then you can save money and not worry about returning the books.
Is that a Nicholas Cage pillow in the background???? Am I seeing things?? I CANNNNTTT LOLOL!! The little sheeps are so cute!!! You did a great job!! I'm excited to get my girls baskets together... and I LOVE the umbrella idea!! So cute!!
