Alternative Easter Gifts For Kids – Treat The Kids This Easter Without Chocolate!

For whatever reason, be it food intolerances or just personal preference, more and more people seem to be veering away from the traditional chocolate eggs at Easter. Instead people are opting for a chocolate free Easter. There are so many alternative Easter gifts for kids so it is possible to celebrate without chocolate.

Instead of gifting sweet things, why not try these chocolate free Easter gifts?

An Easter book

A book is a perfect chocolate free Easter gift. There are so many great Easter story books for young children. They’re a particularly great gift for younger kids who perhaps are too young for chocolate.

Lego Set

The perfect chocolate free Easter gift for any Lego fan. My son loves the Lego Brick Headz and we’ve found this cutie on Amazon!

Craft sets

There are so many great craft sets for kids, and there are lots of Easter themed ones on Amazon. For something that can be used all year round though, how about Aquabeads? My youngest two are obsessed with these! Plus with Aquabeads they’re only limited by their own imagination so they can make Easter themed creations if they wish!

Colouring books

Something that will keep the kids entertained over the Easter holidays is always a bonus! Colouring books are always a hit with my youngest too. They don’t need to be Easter themed but this Unicorns Love Easter colouring book looks amazing!

A jigsaw or game

Again any jigsaw or game that keeps the kids entertained is a winner with me. However if you are looking for something with an Easter connection how about Funny Bunny? Suitable from ages 4 and up, can you help the rabbit reach the carrot at the top of the hill?

Treat them to a day out.

The National Trust have some great Easter themed family days out. Spend the day as a family in the outdoors and get back to nature. Spring is the perfect time to explore the many gardens the National Trust has to offer.

  • Who says Easter is synonymous only with chocolate? I agree with you 100%!

  • These are all awesome ideas! I know everyone thinks candy when they think Easter, but I think any kid would much prefer a LEGO set or coloring book over candy.

  • Great ideas! I love the idea to treat them with something different. We have been trying to eat better in my house, so these ideas are great! and they will love them just as much.

  • Those are innovative ideas but I don't know how my students would take to them... I'm thinking of doing an Easter treasure hunt so it gets them moving!

  • Every year I say I'm not adding candy to their baskets and then I fail miserably. This year I'm sticking to it!
