1. We'll do them until the Easter Bunny no longer is.
2. New one. My kids used the ones we had last year as crap buckets that are still sitting on their dressers (that's where the Silly Bandz are kept). We tried keeping the old ones but they just got shoved in the attic and we would forget we had them.
3. Target
*We don't make it a huge deal. They usually get candy, a stuffed bunny/chick etc, some baseball/Pokeman cards, and then store all their eggs they get in them.

Baby reallly loves his Peter Rabbit that we got from Pottery Barn Kids. So we will probably get a small basket from Pottery Barn Kids that matches a Peter Rabbit theme. I will probably fill it up with cool Peter Rabbit items and books.
I think this is a lovely treat basket for Easter. I may do something for our inlaws.

I got a PBK-knockoff somewhere. It's a white basket with a blue fabric lining. I intended to have DS's name embroidered into the liner, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
Do you do the same basket each year, or a new one? Same one, my sister an I had the same baskets growing up and I think it's kind of a cool special thing to pull the same basket out every year.
Where do/did you get your basket? Syd's is just one that we got from my SIL one year, it probably came from the thrift store. I need to find one for Sarah and I'll probably get that from the thrift store too.
Do you do them? Yes although we teach that Easter is about Jesus not a bunny and eggs and whatever - but the baskets and eggs and such are fun so we participate but that's not the focus of the day. You can have both.
Do you do the same basket each year, or a new one? Same basket, new little things (books, a bath toy etc)
Where do/did you get your basket? My mom did them from PBK

Same one. Rye does not have one yet, as last year, I just used one I had in my Easter bin.
I love the PBK ones, but they are so $$$. I think I found a cute lined one at Target for Miss A. I forget what they look like when they have been stored all year. Lol
I do want them to be fairly match, matchy though, so I will be on the hunt just after St. pat ricks day for Easter stuff.
Last year I got Blake a blue and orange bucket from target and filled it with a bunch of gardening tools, rainboots, and then an easter book and a little bit of candy.
I think I am going to get the boys baskets from Pottery Barn this year that we will use every year.
For us, Easter is all about Spring. He'll have the same basket every year (wicker, got from Ben Franklin, going to have my friend monogram it with her fancy sewing machine). Also, it will get hidden (age-appropriately) and will have a few small toys and treats.
I have the same basket from my childhood (and stocking) and it brings back wonderful memories. My Mom STILL hides our baskets, love it. Picture 6 x 25-38 year olds running around my parents house searching...this year we can add one more "kid"

I almost bought my first Easter basket item today, but I didn't.
Do you do them?yep! And he's already talking about how the Easter Bunny will bring him eggs at Easter. I need to get more Jesus in there.
Do you do the same basket each year, or a new one? The same one, but other relatives have brought baskets for him as well.
Where do/did you get your basket? His basket is mine from when I was little. My mom made it. Macrame! We bring a cheapie basket to the egg hunt.
Sure! I think I kept getting Easter baskets from my parents until I was about 20.
Same one, although she gets other store bought baskets from grandparents.
I got M this one from Personal Creations, it doesn't hold a ton but it's adorable in pictures:

Do you do them? Yes just for Tristen though.

Where do/did you get your basket? I like Targets because they have theme ones. Last year we did a bucket and I liked that he still plays with it.
