Peeps, Duh

Although almost every holiday has its designated sweet companion—Halloween has candy corn, Christmas has candy canes, and Valentine’s Day gets the box of chocolates—perhaps the most iconic are Easter’s marshmallow Peeps. Keep to the season's best: fluffy chicks or bunnies. H-E-B, $1.30 for a 10 count

Creative Carrots

This set of four carrots holds just as many surprises as your typical candy-filled plastic eggs, making each ready to hide with no additional late-night prep from you—surely this will up the stakes of your egg hunt. Emerson Sloan, $21.99

The Classic Tale of Peter Rabbit

If the story of Peter Rabbit is one you enjoyed as a child, and if you want to share this nostalgic tale with your little ones, then hop on down to Brazos Bookstore and pick up Beatrix Potter’s timeless story. Grab a hardback copy so it won’t get ripped up on the car ride to Grandma’s house. Brazos Bookstore, $4.99

Bye Bye Bunny

Personalize your baby’s Easter with a Bye Bye Bunny, a special monogrammed blanket and bunny combo they’ll keep forever—available with six different fonts and in three colors (baby pink, pink and brown). Mine Gifts & Monograms, $26.99
