I remember making Easter baskets for my kids when they were little. I would go to the health food store & get them some healthy candy & snacks like Panda Bars & yogurt covered raisins. I’d hide the baskets in the living room behind the chair & in the coat closet; they would always find them right away!
I stopped at Whole Foods the other day to find some ideas for Healthy Easter Baskets to share with you. I wanted baskets that your kids would enjoy and yes, have some sweets.
I came across a few ideas and most do not have dairy or corn…
- “Panda” Bars, a Raspberry or Licorice confection
- “Endangered Species” extreme dark chocolate, 88% coco (does have milk)
- “Coombs Family Farms”, 100% Pure Maple Candy
- “Honey Sticks”
- “Citrus Sparx”, berry & fruit
- “Enviro Kidz”, Organic crispy rice bar
- Dried fruit (check out the bulk bins at whole foods if you don't have a dehydrator)
- Carob chips
- Cindy's Famous Granola bars, (recipe on this web site)
- Good Old Fashion Stuffed Bunny!
- Gift certificate to the movies, to go indoor rockclimbing, or some other fun activity
Did I forget to mention…
My kids are now 23, 26 and I have a 28 yr old son-in-law; I am still making Easter Baskets for them!
Happy Easter,
