Chocolate Free Easter Presents Ideas for Children!
Easter is such a fab time. Hope and promise and Spring and New Life- all parcelled up into a weekend. I love how it’s a holiday of anticipation- anticipation for Summers and of outdoorsy times and of a season of new life and expectations. I’ve popped some of our favourite Chocolate Free Easter Gift Ideas for Kids so you can enjoy celebrating the seasons.
It’s also a two week holiday, which totally rocks. Half terms are just too short.
How do you do Easter? We do church and hot cross buns, an Easter Egg hunt in the garden and chocolate (obviously)!! although recently we have been giving the kids a smaller Chocolate Easter Egg and a gift, which makes it more meaningful as a gift lasts longer than chocolate.
So, if you’re looking for some cute Chocolate Free Easter Gifts to make Easter last that wee bit longer, or maybe your kiddos don’t like chocolate (do such children exist?) then here we have some gorgeous Easter Present ideas for Children.
Chocolate Free Easter Present Ideas for Kids
Easter Gift Bags
I love these cute Easter gift ideas – bags from Not Just a Print. They make beautiful gifts that can be re-used every year, I’m hoping ours will become a lovely Easter tradition. They are big enough to fit an Easter egg in or plenty of other Easter treats! They are a cotton 30x40cm heavy weight sack which is lovely quality and built to last. They can be personalised and can come pre wrapped with chocolate gifts inside. I also think these would make a dreamy gift bag for a newborn at any time of year! Buy the Gift Bag here.
Make your Own Farm Kit
If you’re looking for chocolate free Easter Gift ideas, this colourful and brilliantly designed set contains everything you need to make a farm from a house and stable, to horses, pigs, piglets, cows, bunnies and much more! Simply unfold the box to reveal the farmyard, pop-out and assemble the pieces – no scissors or glue required – and let your little farmer’s imagination come to life. I really love the colours and beautiful illustrations and I would think any child aged 2-6 would have great fun popping this together.
Cute Lopsy Bunny Wellies from Chipmunks!
I love these adorable Bunny wellies! They make a perfect chocolate free Easter gift ideas for outdoor adventures. The Lopsy wellies have an adorable bunny print, great for hopping in and out of puddles! I also love that they have a fleecy pink lining which is super soft for little feet and handles to help pull them on (or off!!)
Bunny Rabbit Dress Up Puzzle
For a brilliant Easter toddler gift that lasts way longer than chocolate – this dress up puzzle is a perfect exploration toy for boys and girls. The bunnies are cute and kids can use their creativity to experiment with fashion, colours and emotions. Each bunny has different facial expressions on the bunnies which helps kids to identify emotions – it’s a great way to help kids promote empathy. The puzzle is 100% FSC approved and features water-based paint for hours of safe play. What I love is that all toys from Jaques of London features their signature gift wrap, featuring hand tied ribbon, which makes such a pretty gift. Buy it here…
Chocolate Rabbit Sylvanian Family
I loved Sylvanian Families when I was a child and Elodie has just past the set she had which was given by a family friend down to Orla so it’s clear the brand is still going as strong. I must admit, I’m a great fan of nostalgically arranging our Sylvanian families when they’ve finished playing. The little details in the kitchen equipment and even a little telephone – it’s all so very cute! So, a beautiful rabbit family would make a perfect chocolate free gift for Easter – they even have very cute fluffy tails!
LittleLife Animal Toddler Backpack
If you’ve got little ones that you’re looking to buy a chocolate-free treat for this Easter, you could try LittleLife’s extensive range of cute toddler back packs which include a whole host of loveable animal characters. I love this super-soft and seasonal bunny rabbit back-pack and I love the detachable safety rein even more, as my son is a little wanderer! But this will be a perfect gift to prepare for lots of summer adventures!
Rabbit Coding Toy from Learning Resources
An awesome Easter gift for kids is this Learning Resouces Coding Critters Bopper Hip & Hop toy. This is a perfect educational but fun toy for kids My daughter and son (aged 5 & 8) absolutely love playing with this cute toy. It’s a great introduction to coding, I love that they need to use the code and buttons to control the bunny’s movements. They had so much fun and didn’t even realise they were actually learning at the same time! It’s a great option for an Easter gift for siblings too as the bunny can be coded together. You can from Amazon here.
Katie Slippers from Chipmunks
How about a pair of cute bunny slippers? I love that these also come with a name and are beautifully soft and snuggly. You can also get them in pink and there are boys varieties too!
Yippee adventures design and make awesome activity kits themed on the greatest childhood adventures! With both tools and inspiration included, children can create something playful or wall-worthy, or enjoy an action-packed adventure. The kits can come as Mini Kits which would make unique party bag alternatives or Bumper Kit Box with at least three themed activities for a whole ton of play and fun – our box has lasted two kids two weekends – there’s plenty to keep kids busy and learning! We reviewed the Bug Hunting and Greenfingers Box – they have loads of lovely activities for kids. Planting seeds in bags, growing seeds, making a flower press, flower chromatography and light experiments. They include lots of imaginative activities that I’ve not seen before such as making a wool web and setting up a nectar cafe! Having everything to hand in one box means it’s perfect for taking on holiday or using at home to keep little people busy. We loved our activities in the Yippee Adventures Box – you can buy your box here! And look out for your chance to win a Yippee Adventure Box in the next few weeks over on our Instagram.
Beatrix Potter Bamboo Dinner set
Flopsy Bamboo Egg Cup Dinner Set and the Peter Rabbit Egg Cup Dinner Set make lovely Easter gifts if you have little ones to buy for. They’d look very cute on Easter morning with egg and soldiers! But they also make perfect new baby or Christening Gift. They’re environmentally friendly, made out of bamboo but also dishwasher safe. These are adorable and just the thing for a baby or toddler Easter gift.
Herbal Tea and Dried Fruit Snacks
If you have children who have allergies or perhaps you’d like to gift a healthier Easter present – a lovely idea is to package up some alternatives to chocolate. I love this Small & Wild herbal tea for children which has been carefully crafted to perfectly suit little taste buds and tummies. There are lots of yummy flavours and they are naturally caffeine free and contain no added sugar. My older two are always asking to have ‘tea’ like the grown ups and now that they can, they love the Jolly Croc Tea with Banana, Strawberry & Apple and the Merry Tiger Tea with Pear, Mango & Raspberry. Or how about filling a basket with yummy dried fruit and snacks? There are some lovely varieties such a dried banana chips and dried mango from Crazy Jack (found in Sainsburys)
Easter Present Book Ideas
Books are always wonderful gift ideas and there are some really lovely Easter book titles around. This is one of our favourites ‘Rabbits Don’t Lay Eggs’ which is a silly farmyard book that our youngest two find really funny! Have a look at Books and Pieces for some lovely Spring and Easter book titles.
Beautiful Biscuits from Biscuiteers
If you’re looking for a change from traditional Chocolate Eggs – you could try these beautiful biscuits from ‘The Biscuiteers’. Nothing says I love you more than food. Especially the sweet kind. These are stunningly decorated biscuits in a hand-illustrated tin which makes a perfect pretty storage box once the biscuits are gone. They make very special gifts and can be personalised. They really get the wow – gasp factor from children when they open the tin!
Baby Sensory Hand Puppets
Another chocolate free Easter gift ideas for kids are these hand puppets! These are such lovely snuggly puppets – perfect for a little ones Easter present! The lettuce unfurls and there are cute mini insects that curl out with them so this is perfect for interactive play for young children.
