Looking for the best non candy Easter egg fillers for your plastic eggs this year? Whether you have toddlers or teenagers, you’ll find tons of awesome Easter egg stuffers that your kids will LOVE here!
The arrival of your annual Easter egg hunt usually means that your kids are about to experience sugar overload! I don’t know about your Easter bunny, but ours typically stuffs the plastic eggs with chocolate, jelly beans, gummy candies, and all sorts of sweet treats.
But my kids get enough sugar and candy, so we recently decided to fill our plastic Easter eggs with small items that won’t cause our dentist to cringe! And we were pleasantly surprised that our kids were more excited about these small toys and other mini items than they usually are about opening a bunch of candy!
If you want to try some new non candy egg stuffers this year, then here’s a huge list of ideas that are all kid-approved! (Especially the printable Easter Bunny Money – that’s our daughters’ favorite!)
