This weekend the kiddos and I took a minute to assemble some Easter treats for their cousins. I saw this last year somewhere (I wish I could remember where) and thought it was a darling idea. Hopefully all 3 eggs will end up in the right place.
We started with Jumbo Plastic Eggs - these we had on hand from last Easter. Then we filled each egg with goodies: candy, stickers, balloons, a hair bow, and dress-up gloves (thanks Target $1 Spot).
We taped around the center, added labels, and slapped on some postage. Since these eggs weighted less than 2 oz. it only cost about $1.45 to send these little cuties. See that nice roll of postage stamps in the tin box? Those are from my WEDDING! Yes, my wedding nearly 7 years ago. They're only worth about $.37 cents each. This project seemed like an easy way to start using up some of the stamps!
This kids had fun helping me assemble and stamp these. I can't wait for the the postman to deliver these eggs. I guess in a way it makes him a little like the Easter Bunny!
