Easter egg v....

[Buzzybb]

Pinata. I have gotten nieces/nephews pinatas this easter instead of eggs, put colouring pencils little colouring books dinky cars, little ponies and some small sweetie pks and choccie bars and creme eggs into them. DP came home tonight and was that I was giving them pinata instead of an egg [Got him 2 eggs big baby] and is gone off out to try buy some So who is being unreasonable Him or me
Your wisdom before he comes back plse

both of you imo you should have spoken of it together for some easter eggs are a big deal and a part of their traditions for others they mean little

if it was me I would take it as an opertunity to learn about each other perhaps start a new easter joint thing you do pinata and easter eggs springs to mind right now..

He did not even get me a lollypop never mind an egg and it was me who took 5 kiddies to an egg hunt today so figured with all the other eggs they would get it would be something different my nephew toldme he has 5 eggs and will be getting more tomorrow, it is madness my DD 10 months has 4 eggs never mind what Aunties etc will give her tomorrow,

I think your idea sounds nice, agree that children usually get far too many eggs anyway! Eggs are overpriced and mainly packaging anyway and they are getting chocs with your idea anyway

That is such a lovely and thoughtful thing to do! He is being a bit silly IMO.
I wish my DC were'nt gettin as much chocolate as I know they will recieve sunday! Much more fun bashing pinatas than having to hold back on the eggs (I really don't want DD being sick from it all so she won't get it all in one go - I forsee arguments and DS is only 11months dont want him to have any at all TBH!
I think and would hope your family will be very grateful for your original take on easter enjoy!

And they are Chicken pinata's so still seasonal for some strange reason could no let them bash a little lamb one
It is crazy only he easter bunny gave us eggs we must have been deprived Actually I thik my Mum used to just hide them.
DP still not back might have to eat one of his eggs

p.s. am stealing your idea for next year
go eat that egg you deserve it for your hard work

I got them in Tesco steal away I must say I love giving unusual gifts

i don't give my DS's easter eggs either. This year they have millions of arts and craft stuff and because they have their birthdays around easter (and only a fortnight apart) they also get one big present between them. This year they are getting a trampoline.
