Its not your normal easter basket!

First of all both of my girls an my nephew find something else to do! Don't read this please!
Hopefully they listened to me but I doubt it!
Any how I have a few ideas for Easter baskets that aren't your usual baskets! I tried to find items that wouldn't end up in the basement with all the other baskets from the last 18 years!
For my husband I used a fold up cooler! I filled the bottom with rolled up socks. ( I think he must eat his!) Then I added grass I filled the rest with his favorite candies. Red jellybeans, Swedish fish, lots of peanutbutter eggs, an of course a chocolate bunny.
For my teenage girls, I bought Easter bags. They already have plenty of containers! I filled them with Easter grass added lots of candy an gave them toothbrushes, an something to do! Yes teenagers have a funny way of being bored at 2:00 in the morning! Books an even cool puzzles work well for the I can't find anything to do problem!
For my nephew who has decided hunting is cool. I found a camouflage bucket. I filled it with olive green grass. You know I just decided orange would have been better. Oh well. I filled it with lots of candy an put in a toothbrush, floss picks ( this way mom is happy. Sugar an a way to fix the teeth. Yeah right!) I also found a really cool sports ball to add.
For a 3 week old baby I found a bright colored bucket. I filled it with dresses at the bottom, added pink grass, and put in a really really cute duck. Then I added some hair ribbons and a hair brush. No candy yet! That's next year, but shhh that's our secret. Mom isn't going to like that.
If you have any ideas for a basket that isn't a basket please let me know. I think these are some fun ideas!
