<\/p>Did you know that Easter is the second top-selling candy holiday? It\u2019s second only to Halloween. If you want to go in a different direction\/stay away from the sugary treats, why not fill your kids\u2019 baskets with one of the following treats? (They are all recession-friendly\/affordable\/less than $10.)\n

As a special treat, one lucky Mom in the City reader will receive six of the items (the starred ones).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Books<\/u><\/strong>
\n1. Barefoot Books (Varies):<\/strong> Recently, a Mom in the City member gifted two of this company\u2019s books to my sons (thanks Junnie!). They had me read the books over and over again, especially Bear on a Bike<\/em> ($6.99).
\n\"bearonabike\"<\/a>
\n
\n2. *Good Egg <\/em>by Barney Saltzberg ($9.95):<\/strong> This hardcover book is so adorable. See for yourself:
\n<\/object>
\n
\n3. *Only Hearts Club \u2013 Hardbound Books($4.00):<\/strong> These hardbound book are 4\u2033 x 6\u2033 and are illustrated with real color photographs of the Only Hearts Girls\u2122 acting out various stories. (The winner will receive Dancing Dilemma<\/em>.)
\n\"dancing-dilemma\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Games<\/strong><\/u>
\n4. *Milton Bradley Junior Puzzles ($1.99+):<\/strong> There are a variety of images to choose from including animals and popular characters. (The winner will receive a 24 piece puzzle of 2 chicks.)
\n
\n5. *Littlest Pet Shop Go Fish Card Game<\/a> ($4.99):<\/strong> Kids will enjoy playing this classic matching card game featuring LITTLEST PET SHOP pet images.
\n\"gofish\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Toys<\/strong><\/u>
\n6. Mr. Potato Head Spud Bunny ($4.99):<\/strong> There\u2019s something about a Mr. Potato Head\u2026 I gave one of these ones that change into a bunny to my little nephew while he was over our home visiting. It was interesting seeing how everyone (grown-ups included!) kept playing with his new toy. In fact, I might need to get another one, because Sean kept trying to \u201csteal\u201d it up until he left claiming that it was \u201cmy toy\u201d.

7. *Only Hearts Pets ($3.99):<\/strong> These little (they are only 2\u2033 tall!) pets are very soft and cute. There are a lot of different ones for kids (of all ages) to collect. (The winner will receive Wooly the Lamb.)

\n
\n8. *PLAY-DOH Spring Chicks 2-Pack ($1.99):<\/strong> Each of the chick containers comes with two ounces of PLAY-DOH inside. They also have stampers with cute baby chick designs.
