Ooby's Easter Basket Equation

(Basket Basics)+(Comfy Cozy) + (Practical Play) + (Sensible Essentials) + (Tasty Treats) = A Healthy Easter Basket

1. Basket Basics

I'm all about reusing a trusty basket every year. Just add a cute name card and let your little ones proudly place their basket out for the Easter bunny's visit. Save money and create lasting memories with a sturdy, reliable, and timeless basket to kick off your Easter celebrations!

2. Comfy Cozy

Get ready for all the cuddles! One of my favorite traditions is opting for a comfy blanket instead of wasteful plastic Easter grass. Easter is also the perfect time to refresh those too-tight jammies and find a new plushy for your little one’s bed.
