Let’s be honest, I may not be a dentist like Annie but I need only to envision Augustus Gloop to know the consequences of filling my child’s Easter basket with a lifetime supply of chocolate. Lesson learned: Too much of a good thing will leave your child stuck in a Wonka chocolate extraction pipe…or (more plausible) Dr. Annie’s dentist chair. Neither one is too appealing in my book. (No offense, Annie.) This Easter leave a space between the Bunny Money and Peeps for a little education. Here is a list of our favorite Bunny Classics, Fun & Multicultural, Christian-focused, and Parent books perfect for Easter! If you want to purchase them online just click on the link. There is still plenty of time to get them before the big holiday. We did all the work for you!
P.S. Pick up a few at your library to read prior to Easter morning. The kids will love the anticipation.
