Slacker Mom’s Guide to Easter Baskets
Some moms put me to shame with the thought, care, and time they put into building their childs’ Easter baskets. I’m too tired and busy for that Pinterest-y stuff. Besides, looking back on my childhood, I have very fond memories of the Easter baskets my mom put together. I have NO memory of what was in them or how they looked other than CANDY, CANDY, CANDY! That’s all kids really care about, right?
In previous years, I’ve just gone bought baskets, candy, and a bunch of trinkets in a hurried trip to the Dollar Tree. This year, I’m not even leaving the house. I’m going to order awesome, pre-filled Easter baskets with Amazon Prime and have it arrive on my doorstep, ready to go, in two days.
Slacker Mom’s Guide to Easter Dinner
If at all possible, go to someone else’s house for Easter Dinner! That will solve the problem of you having to plan a meal, clean your house, and host a bunch of people.
If you go to someone else’s house for Easter, the most you’ll be asked is to bring dessert. I’ve got you covered there. Have you seen my easiest carrot cake recipe video?
If you absolutely must host Easter dinner in your home, cut out a lot of prep, planning, and work by ordering a pre-made dinner to be delivered to your home. I did some the research for you.

Stop the Fighting. How to Keep Peace on this Day of Peace
Once kids go into all-out sugar high-mode, the acting up begins. If at all possible, try to limit the sugar. Have an expectation going in that they may have ONE item from their basket today and the rest is saved for another time.
Easter egg hunts are super-fun but can also go super-wrong. If you are hiding real eggs, it is VITAL that you count them before hiding so you know if you found them all. (Better yet, jot down where you hid them.) We’ve made the mistake TWICE of finding a disgusting, stinking rotten egg weeks later in the sofa cushions.
A better bet is using those plastic Easter eggs. (Again, you can order some in your pajamas from Amazon.) Have nothing to fill them with? Go find that jar you’ve been throwing all your loose change in. You know which one I mean. The jar of coins you are too lazy or too busy
