Premade Easter Baskets

What is Parentings thoughts on these?

My mom just dropped one off for Rosie. She didn't get the candy (she gets too hyper), she wasn't allowed the fake earrings and rings, and the rest of it broke within 2 minutes. Literally. Not impressed at all.

I wouldn't do it from the Easter bunny but I think as a little gift it is fine

I just don't get them. To me, they just seemed lazy.

Personally I don't think it is that hard to find small things to go in a basket though...

I'm meh on them. Some are better quality than others & don't suck so hard. I probably wouldn't get one though.

All the ones I saw where either filled with candy or crappy toys. I bought little gardening things for the same price.

The only ones I've noticed seem to be filled with overpriced junk. I think it's easy to find more personal items cheaper, but it's the thought that counts, I suppose.

We went through the Dollar Spot at Target to get goodies for DDs basket. It was probably a lot cheaper than what the premade basket would have cost. Plus, like others have said, I think it's fun to pick out the stuff for the basket.

Oddly, when I was a kid I used to look at the pre-made baskets in stores and think they were the coolest thing ever.

I also prefer to make my own, but like most everyone else, I wouldn't judge someone for going this route. I did see some really cute pre-made ones at Cracker Barrell, but I guess that's a little bit different.

I like putting my own together.

DD1 decided that she wanted one this year. I think just because it's all wrapped up and made to look cool and full of surprises. She won't be getting one though, I overshopped at Disney World. My DH also tells me that he wanted one his e

I have 3 kids incl my step son. The year DD was born I could not get my act together to make baskets and bought some pre made ones while getting wipes at BRU/TRU. They were actually cute and cheap. I was able to get my boys ones with

I got them as a kid but I like to stuff my own. I don't think they are lazy but there is just not stuff we want/need in them.

I don't care for them. I'm sure there are nice ones out there but the standard grocery store Easter basket is generally full of candy and crappy toys. I'd rather go light on the candy and buy some quality stuff.

NMS. It takes the fun out of it for me. I love occasions like Easter and Christmas where I get to pick items I know DS needs, and as he gets older, items I know he really wants.
