At Miss 8's new school it seems the done thing is to give every child in the class an egg for Easter. I have to say I'm a bit concerned about how much chocolate will be coming home with her on Friday. It's hard because I really don't want to go along with the crowd but I know that Miss 8 would like to give something to her friends. So I thought along different lines and bought a packet of
organic lollipops and decorated them for her to hand out. I know they are still full of sugar but I'd rather her hand them out than some of the yukky chocolate I know she'll end up getting. I found the inspiration
here for the lollipop covers.
To see what others have been creating, don't forget to stop

What a great idea Catherine and they look so lovely. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, they look lovely. And, so much more personal.
ReplyDeleteThey look gorgeous. I'm getting Brian to share his eggs (received from others) with Kevin and I. I can't out and out take them away because he'll notice, but the sharing means he is eating less. You could bake a treat using the eggs as the chocolate component?!
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea and a great alternative to all that fake chocolate out there. So pretty. I want one too ;)
ReplyDeleteThey look great Catherine - so good to think of something different. If the kids all gave out those tiny size Easter eggs it wouldn't be so bad I guess, but all those bigger ones start to accumulate :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic idea! and they look just lovely... Lisa xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea...you continue to astound me with your creative skills!!! What a lucky daughter you have!!
ReplyDeleteWow Catherine - awesome! She will love giving those to her friends!! Is the pink egg a stamp? You're very clever, that's all I seem to ever say on this blog. You inspire me constantly.
ReplyDeleteThey will definitely be the most beautiful Easter gift in the class. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I love the egg stamp.
ReplyDeleteThey're super sweet!
ReplyDeleteLast Christmas I was shocked by the quantity of red candy canes my son bought home from kindy. It was totally ridiculous... and very stressful for me as he is particularly sensitive to the red food colouring. Ahhhh!!!
I was actually thinking the other day that I'm going to make gingerbread men for him to give to the children in his class this year.
That's such a cool idea - what a fabulous mum!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! A very clever solution.
ReplyDeletethey look so beautiful and are a wonderful idea!!
