Easter baskets/presents
I pretty much know what I'm doing for Marron's basket for Easter -- nothing that won't fit in the basket, other than 1 toy bunny that hops.
But for nieces and nephews, I bought SMALL tin baskets at the dollar spot in Target and was going to fill them with a couple of little toys & candy pieces. Does this seem cheap? Should I be doing/making something more? I guess I'm a little worried that I'll be embarassed if my relatives get Marron something much bigger or more elaborate.
What is everybody else doing?

Re: Easter baskets/presents
I always buy things on the smaller side - coloring books, bubbles, books, candy, etc. I like to add one bigger item - but nothing too crazy. I don't think it is Christmas and try not to turn it into Christmas.
For my goddaughters (ages 1.5 and 2.5) - this year I got them an easter lollipop, a new big bath towel, a book, sunglasses and some easter playdoh to put in an easter pail I bought at the drug store. I wanted to add something chocolate but haven't bought it yet.

I got it from KB Toys, at the Tanger Outlets. They probably have it at the regular KB as well.

Re: Easter baskets/presents
I've never made a basket for nieces or nephews so it sounds generous to me.
I don't expect Ale will be getting baskets from aunts & unles either - although one aunt did get her a basket. She doesn't have kids.
