need help with Easter basket ideas

[gottaluvPluto]

We try to give toys in the Easter Baskets with some candy and this year I want a Disney theme. We are going to Disney in May and I would love to give my kids some Disney items they might need or like to have. However, the Disney store closed where I live and I need to find Disney items and I don't know where to go to find them. I also need ideas of Disney items to put in their baskets. Can you guys help me? I was also thinking of putting a Disney bottle strap in the basket, where can I get one? I have two DD's one is 4 and the other one will turn 7 in April.

Thank for all your help!

Linens N Things had some cute Disney Princess suckers last week. The stick was a picture of a Princess. They always have different goodies than most places.

I've seen Disney Pez at Wal Greens and Wal Mart. Also Mickey playing cards. Kids always like those.

Wal Mart seems to have a few things. Check out the book section for coloring books. Look in the school supply area also.

Target may have something too. You just have to wander around the stores.

I got my DS Mickey shoes for his Christmas trip basket! They were at K-Mart, $9.99....lasted really well! I already picked up a pair of Mickey sandals (kinda like Tevas) for him for the summer

Besided TDS, I've found Disney stuff at Wal-Mart (clothes, toys, playing cards, etc.), Target (toys), Eckerd's (candy, small stuff, paper towels and paper bathroom cups) , TJMaxx (chocolates in the food section), JCPenney (clothes), Big Lots (occasionally gets toys), and Dollar Tree (coloring books). You could also order from Disney store online, but personally, I hate paying shipping! You could also do non-Disney stuff like princess dress up stuff from any toy store/discount store toy section, coloring books, pads of coloring paper, etc.

Oh...you could do a Leap Pad with the Disney books in it! My DD-3 LOVES it, even though much of it is a little advanced...there's only 2 or 3 books for her age, but there are lots more for 4-8!! Bonus is that it keeps her busy in the car on the way down, and she can play with it by herself!!

My parents would always pre-order a movie for me before Easter and it would wind up in my basket. It was so nice because I had the movie and the lithographs. We ussually went to Disney shortly after, so it was a good way to get me excited!

How about some Disney Dollars? I also saw mini Disney Playing Cards yesterday at our local Meijer grocery store in the party favor section.

It sounds strange, but if you have a Dollar store nearby check there. I got DS some great Disney washcloths each individually packaged to put in his easter basket and they were 3 for $1.00!!!

How about a Disney beach towel that they can use at the pool and a wash cloth for when they bathe along with some Disney shampoo or bubble bath.
A T-shirt and hat would be nice since they will be able to use it and I like the idea of the Disney Dollars.
Have a Happy Easter and a fun trip. We are also going to Disney in May-Disneyland.

I know I have seen some disposable disney cameras. I think at Target. Would be great for the upcoming trip. Also I agree with the Dollar store, I can always find something disney there. And KMart also has Disney items, maybe bathing suits or coverups.

That reminds me, I took Mickey fruit snacks (they also have Lion King, Buzz, and Princesses like above poster mentioned), Magix cereal and Pooh cereal for snacking, Lion King animal cookies, and Magix "oreo-type" cookies!! You can also do the 100 Acre Wood juice boxes if you can find them....our stores don't carry them any more, though.

Target has Disney Princess Easter Eggs for $4.99. Has a Princess in each one, and I think a little bit of candy.
