Stacking Cups
Stacking cups are great because they stand the test of time. When you have an infant, you can let him reach for the cups during tummy time. Once your baby can sit in the tub, these make the perfect easy-to-clean bath toys. And as a toddler, he’ll love knowing over the cups that you’ve stacked. This is one gift that will be just as popular on baby’s second Easter as his first.

This board book does just that, with colorful and engaging illustrations that show all types of families expressing their love in everyday actions like finding a missing ball or baking a cake. Plus, it’s hearty enough to withstand your baby’s love of books.

While you’re shopping for baby’s first Easter, remember that while a Pinterest-perfect basket is adorable, having a nice day with your baby and creating family traditions that work for you are what matters most. So enjoy your little bunny this year, no matter what your basket might hold.
(But hopefully it holds some Reese’s peanut butter eggs while you’re at it.)
