Easter Basket Gift Ideas - Video Review

Guys...I love everything about Easter besides all the religious aspects. I love the start of Spring, the pastel colors, the candy, the bunnies, the baby chicks. Mostly I love the rebirth of color to my monochrome world. Flowers, Grass, and more time outdoors.  I also love Easter Baskets. Over the years the kids Easter Baskets have changed based on their likes and interests.

Here are some ideas for your Easter Baskets.

My Top Pick goes to a game from Goliath called Jumping Jack

Included in the box

• 1 Hill with carrot holes
• 1 Jumping Jack Rabbit
• 12 Carrots
• 1 Spinner
• 4 Baskets
• 1 Instruction Sheet

Jumping Jack is a great game from Goliath Games which is perfect for ages 4+ and can be played with 2-4 players.

 Set up was very quick. We just had to open a few bags and were ready to play.

Give everyone a basket, pop the carrots into the holes, set Jack in the middle and spin the spinner to see how many carrots you get to pick from the bunny hill. You get to pick one or two carrots based on the spin but there are also a spot that makes you take one out of your basket and another space which makes you lose a turn.

The fun part beside the satisfaction of pulling a carrot out of the hill is that one of the carrots will make Jack jump off his hill. Don't worry Jack is soft enough to give to a newborn so he can't hurt you if he accidentally bops into your head of face (hasn't happened on the 50+ games we've played so far but I guess it is a possibility).

If the carrot you pull makes Jack jump you want to try to catch him. If you catch him you win!

If no one catches Jack, the person with the most carrots in their basket is the winner.

You can change the rules so that anyone can try to catch Jack and they win the game too.  We play this way!

Not caught on camera but I pulled two carrots at once and caught Jack too! FELT LIKE A BOSS! LOL. Even our Cat Luna likes to try to play.
