In our family, we would get the same things in our Easter basket. Our parents would hide our baskets, and my sisters and I would have to find them in the morning. It was so magical to see the candy, toys, and eggs scattered around. One sister (not to mention any names) would eat her entire Easter basket before church and end up sick.
