We mainly give eggs but my mum likes to buy the grandkids new winter PJs or a dressing gown as well. I really like that idea and it's a practical gift from a Nanna who just loves to spoil her grandkids.
My kids get a pair of winter PJs each and an egg hunt with small eggs. The PJ's are a tradition my parents did with me and my siblings and we always loved it so it was a no brainer to continue it with my kids!
Well my two have ended up with a little bag each to use for the easter egg hunt and it has 3 of those kind of medium sized hollow eggs in it. And DD1 got an activity book too. And them we have just a bag of little eggs to hide around the place.
Easter eggs and a new toothbrush here! I can't give him the chocolate without the reminder to protect his teeth The twins get nothing.. Mean Easter bunny
I do know a fair few people who give winter pj's as well.
my mum doesn't like going overboard with chocolate so we often got the eggs transferred into a present usually something useful like ear muffs or a cheap cordless drill
I always do a new pair of slippers and some winter Pj's ;-D then some chocolates. I don't think it's over the time. It's the things that I need at this time of the year anyway and the kids always thing it's special that they get it for easter ;-D
My DS got nothing other than the egg DH boss got him. He is still so little he doesn't get it and I won't see nephews till next week so will get them tomorrow for 1/3 of the price.
