Stop, and listen. If you listen closely, you may hear the Easter bunny hopping all about getting his eggs and goodies ready to bring to all the boys and girls. I know, with all the craziness of the Covid 19 virus, Easter is the last thing on an adult's mind. But, we need to try out best to try to keep things as normal as possible so that we don't scare young children or make them feel worried. Even though my girls are 8.5 and 9.5 years old, they are watching the news and reading news about this virus and have so many questions. And, just the other night, they found out a friend's grandfather passed away from the virus. So, it really is scary times for everyone, especially having to be under self quarantine. This isn't going to be our new normal, but something we all have to pull together and do to keep the numbers down. Because Easter is on the minds of so many kids, including my girls, I wanted to share a dozen gift ideas for kids and even some for adults (who are kids at heart -- or just need something to boost their moods). All of the gifts I will be sharing are available for purchase online, so you can simply order and have them shipped directly to your door to add your child's Easter basket, or ship to family and friends.
So, without further ado, I wanted to share my first fun gift idea for kids, which also makes for a great "just because" gift as it will keep your kids (of all ages) busy for hours -- I know as my girls have been loving the assortment of goodies that Crayola recently sent, and that have been keeping my girls busy and not feeling so bored. :-)

If you are planning a family movie night to see the new Trolls World Tour, this coloring set would make for a great pre- or post- movie activity.
Available at Crayola.com and retailers nationwide for only $7.99
My youngest daughter was super excited to see the Crayola Color Wonder Mess Free Trolls World Tour foldalope coloring set, as she is counting down the days for the movie's digital release. If you are planning a family movie night to see the new Trolls World Tour, this coloring set would make for a great pre- or post- movie activity.
The set includes 18 coloring pages and 5 Color Wonder Mess Free markers, which makes this a great item to pick up and have your kids share.
Rock out with a Color Wonder Trolls World Tour coloring experience! Parents will be delighted that the Color Wonder markers only appear on specially formulated Color Wonder paper, making this the perfect mess-free creative activity for kids who love the Dreamworks’ Trolls.
My girls are fans of these mess free coloring pages, and I love not having to wipe down the tables trying to get marker marks off. These "magic" markers will not color your child's skin, furniture or fabric -- which makes them a win for both kids and parents. :-)
In addition to the new Trolls World Tour Color Wonder Mess Free set, Crayola is also offering ones for fans of Paw Patrol, Puppy Dog Pals, Frozen II, Mickey and the Roadster Racers, Peppa Pig, and so many
more.

They haven't stopped playing with this playset and the cute pets that come with the set and can be colored, washed and re-colored time and time again.
And, they ended up gathering up all their other Scribble Scrubbie play sets and pets they already owned to create a fun little village for their pets to roam about, visiting the vet and salon, before heading to the palace for a pet party. :-)
I loved listening to the girls make up stories and bring their colorful Scribble Scrubbie pets to life.

With Easter fast approaching, now is the time to place you order online at Crayola.com to receive Easter basket fillers for your kids. I ended up placing an order right after I received the goodies shared above from Crayola, as I knew my girls would love coloring more Color Wonder pages from the other sets I mentioned above, as well as want more Scribble Scrubbie pets to color and play with. They have also been asking for more art kits and crafts to do while stuck at home, and I know Crayola has me covered with affordable products for my girls, to keep them busy while we are laying low at home. It isn't Easter in our house without the Easter Bunny leaving the girls Crayola crayons and activity sets, and this year will be no different. So, what are you waiting for?
