Presentation Tips

1. Layer Thoughtfully - Place larger items like plush toys at the back, medium-sized gifts in the middle, and small treasures at the front where they're easily visible.
2. Add Natural Elements - Incorporate real grass (grown in a shallow container a week before Easter) or eco-friendly paper grass rather than plastic alternatives.
3. Personalize Each Basket - Include a handwritten note "from the Easter Bunny" that celebrates something special about your child.
4. Create a Hunt Sequence - Number small items for an additional layer of Easter morning excitement as children discover each gift in order.
