Crayola’s washable sidewalk chalk is egg shaped so it’s easy to hold, and of course it’s seasonally fun. It’s a nice way to decorate your driveway or send socially distanced Easter greetings to the neighborhood. When you’re done, the rain or a spray from the garden hose will clean it up easily.
Drop Dots Light Up Balls from Kess - For ages 6 and up - about $14.99
What family doesn’t need a ball to throw around on Easter? The Drop Dots Light Up Balls have a cool, soft/spiky texture that makes them great to handle and throw. Plus, the flashing lights are just fun and cool.
Squeakee Mini from Moose Toys - For ages 4 and up - about $9.99
Based on balloon animals, these whimsical creatures–a bunny, a puppy, a monkey–will repeat what you say but in a helium voice, squeak when you rub them, and even pretend to blow up and pop.
Escape This Book! Tombs of Egypt from Random House - For ages 10 and up - about $7.49
It combines game, puzzle and reading all in one immersive experience. Here you can play as the Pharaoh, Archaeologist, or Pyramid worker to try to escape the tomb. You can play all three roles, one after another. You’ll fold, tear, and draw on the pages as you figure out the puzzle. It’s really fun, and for kids interested in history it’s got an added dimension of interest.
