Easter is right around the corner, and with it comes the excitement of baskets, pastel everything, and all the cute seasonal fun. Now don’t get us wrong—we’re not here to cancel the Easter Bunny. We love a good basket surprise. Even as adults, that little bit of spring magic is still something we can all appreciate.
But let’s pause for a second.
Every holiday is a choice. A choice about what we bring into our homes—and what we let stay.
It’s easy to fall into the trap of the Target “deal” aisle. All those cheap little gadgets, stuffed animals, and Easter-themed games are designed to feel like a steal. But come September, do you really want to be picking up broken plastic eggs, random puzzle pieces, and headless bunnies from under the couch?
We get it—candy isn’t always the go-to anymore. Some parents want to avoid the sugar overload, and that’s totally fair. But would you rather deal with a sugar high that fades by bedtime or months of clutter that sticks around long after Easter is over?
This isn’t about being a buzzkill. It’s about being intentional. If you’re building a basket this year, fill it with things that truly mean something to your child—books they’ll love, craft kits they’ll actually finish, or experiences that make memories instead of messes.
Because here’s the truth:
A cluttered home will never be made better by adding more clutter.
Let this be the year we choose peace over chaos. Mindfulness over madness.
Let’s celebrate Easter with magic that doesn’t come at the cost of our sanity.
Happy spring, friends—may your baskets be thoughtful and your homes calm.
