Easter is definitely probably my favourite holiday? Maybe because it’s in the springtime, or maybe because I LOVE gift baskets, cookies and chocolate? Well, this year - I obviously got the kids matching jammies again for the night before the easter bunny comes!

One of my absolute favourite traditions is to host a little “bunny brunch” every year at Easter time. This year was our 5th annual! I always pick up some tulips from the grocery store, and we never forget our bunny ears!

What’s not to love about rainbows, green smoothies and lucky charms?! We celebrated St. Patricks’s Day this year with a little breakfast party featuring a rainbow of balloons, green pancakes, green fruit skewers, and doughnuts with lucky charms sprinkled on top!

For Valentine’s Day this year, we decided to celebrate with an ice cream party! I made a little sign that said “we all love ice cream” and made a little pink and white striped awning out of poster paper to add a little ice cream shop feel to our set up!

Christmas season is in full swing and we are feeling festive in our christmas pyjamas already! We decided to make some Christmas tree ornaments and decorate cookies for a little holiday fun! 

I’m always surprised how quickly Halloween approaches after school starts in the fall! We decided to have a little halloween party on the weekend to celebrate with friends. It was fun to eat treats, play games, make a few crafts, and enjoy all the halloween silliness that comes with it!

another sweet and springy bunny brunch! my favourite Easter tradition!

Oh hey it’s just me again with another FUN easter basket! This year I am using these colourful crates from Urban Outfitters - I loved the bright orange and mint green colours, and they will look super cute in the kid’s rooms after Easter too!

we had a simple and sweet “little love letters” party for Valentine’s Day this year. We each wrote special notes to our family members telling them what we loved about them! It was so fun to read our letters out loud and eat cookies and as always - throw confetti!

Sitting by a warm fire…Christmas tree glowing…decorating gingerbread houses and cookies wearing matching checkered Christmas sweaters? Sounds pretty delightful if you ask me!

sharing a little halloween fun with cute ghosts, magic potions and treats!

I’m not sure what the rules are for how many times you need to do something to make it a “tradition” - but this year we held our third “bunny brunch” before Easter and it also happened to be my birthday as well! This simple little springtime brunch made me so happy - the perfect party!

So here are the items I have gathered for their baskets! I hope this gives you a few ideas for your own little’s, or even gift ideas for another occasion! I always challenge myself to follow these guidelines for their easter baskets: something to wear, something to use, something for spring, something to play with and something to read!

I think i’ve started like 3 blog posts with “I love putting together gift baskets” … but i TRULY do! I love picking a colour scheme and finding little items that go together to create a fun little collection of goodies! I just love watching my kids pull everything out and get excited about each item too.

A fun little all-things-pink-hearts Valentine’s Day party with my 2 little loves! Let’s eat yummy treats, drink strawberry milk, make a donut craft and celebrate love day!

Here are a few things I am loving this year for Valentine’s Day - and what I am planning for a little party at home!

Let’s decorate christmas cookies! We decided to make it special with a few sweet decorations from A Little Confetti, and kept it easy by getting a cookie decorating kit from Blue Eyed Baker!

a sweet little pastel halloween party featuring cute ghosts, peachy pumpkins and mini witch party hats! I love celebrating halloween a week before - the kids get to wear their costume, eat treats and enjoy the halloween excitement, while still getting to do all of the actual halloween festivities on the real day!

our second annual bunny brunch was THE cutest! I have been wanting to do a Peter Rabbit themed party for a while - I love the idea of decorating with fresh garden florals + vegetables. Our sunny dining room transformed into Mr. McGregor’s garden - even if spring hasn’t fully arrived yet!

here’s everything I put in our kiddo’s easter baskets this year! I love finding fun and useful things that the kids can play with! We used these fun sun jellies baskets this year - and I loved the bunny bath towels!

we celebrated St. Patrick’s Day with a little lucky charms party! featuring green smoothies, green pancakes, green balloons, and of course RAINBOWS!

Lauren needed some valentine cards to share with her preschool classmates, so I made these little cards for her to pass out, and packaged them up with these sweet tic-tac-toe cookies from Blueeyed Baker!

I loved putting these baskets together for Valentine’s Day! Some cute snacks, pajamas, an outfit, socks, a book, and a few fun little things to play with all tucked into some useful crates that we will be able to use again and again!

we had a fun heart party to celebrate valentine’s day this year! We had a big stack of heart waffles with a heart sparkler candle, heart shaped sugar cookies, and of course - conversation heart candies! we decorated with heart and x+o balloons, made valentine cards and bracelets.

Here are 16 of the cutest valentine's day books for children (in my opinion!) I had to stop myself at 16, but there are so many sweet books about love, hugs, kisses, hearts, and friendship. My kids love books and I love giving them books for special occasions - and I always include a book in their gift baskets!
