Happy Eostre and Vernal Equinox!

I was just reading my post last year about the Switch Witch. This year, Arianna received a craft basket full of stickers, 3 horse friends, and various art supplies. She LOVED it! There wasn't any candy in it at all and she didn't say a word about it. Some of our old neighbors gave their children fruit baskets for Easter and they thought it was the coolest thing. Another friend sets out some of the hard boiled eggs her children decorates and the next morning, the real eggs are gone and the "fairies" leave a few plastic eggs filled with mini M&Ms. No huge chocolate Easter bunny. No jelly beans. No marshmallow peeps. Just a handful of chocolate is all a little kid needs.

Say NO to the Easter tummyache and the sugar crash! Find out what your child really enjoys and fill a basket with some brain candy instead!
