Non Chocolate Easter Gifts

Are you fed up of chocolates? Christmas was only 10 weeks away and I am still working off the tins of Quality Street and After Eights! I am sure most other people feel the same way, but are just too polite to say it. So why not buy some non-chocolate gifts this Easter instead?

Read on to see my hand-picked selection

Remote Control Rubber Duck

Rubber ducks. What were they all about? Yellow rubber ducks that bobbed about in your bath a bit whilst you washed your hair – never very interesting, but now things are about to get very interesting.

The remote controlled duck has arrived. He’s still yellow and still rubbery, but now you can finally get him to do something. Drive him around your bath at super speeds, get him to do dazzling u-turns and tricky manoeuvres, all with the twiddle of a knob.

Create some splash action in the bath. Oh and he also reminds us that it’s Easter.

Buy for £12.99 from Play.com

Hatchable Chicken

Whenever you fancy a giggle, this clockwork egg can be wound up until it can be wound no more. Then sit back and watch as the egg splits in 2 and out pops a cute, cartoon style chick who proceeds to waddle off into the distant sunset.

He doesn’t do much else, but he is fun to watch and makes a great little present for somebody this Easter instead of an Easter Egg.

Buy this cute chicken for £4.99 from Hawkin’s Bazaar

Egg Cup Timer

Those brilliant people at Suck UK (the guys that brought you Sun Jar) have come up with another ingenious invention. An Egg Timer that also doubles up as a stylish Egg cup. The yellow sand will time your egg cooking to perfection, whilst the clear holder will hold your egg like a work of art and ready for you to eat.

What better way to spend Easter Sunday morning, than having real eggs for breakfast – eggs that haven’t been overcooked by 5 minutes. A brilliant non-chocolate easter gift idea. Unfortunately eggs are not included.

Buy the Suck UK Egg Cup Timer from Find Me A Gift for £14.99

Towelling Rabbit

Easter is also associated with Easter bunnies and this cute rabbit made from natural towelling is an adorable gift for a baby or little nipper.

The rabbit is clutching onto a Doudou, and I can’t quite figure out what this is. I think it’s something your baby can grip onto, kind of like a security blanket.

It comes complete in a gift box for £7.95 from Amazon.co.uk
