Easter activities/games for 6 year old boy - no chocolate required!

Thinking ahead - what to do with a 6 year old boy, who doesn't eat chocolate! Want to do something crafty, but making fluffy chicks seems too young for him, need ideas...

is there anywhere I can buy empty plastic/cardboard eggs that I could use to fill with sweets that he does eat, I don't want him to feel left out when his cousins are muching their way through a mound of choccy eggs.

I think I've seen such eggs in a catalogue (an arts and crafts one) but I can't remember its name (it gets sent from school and the school gets a % of orders, anyone remember the name?)

would making an easter tree be of interest?
Some large twigs, painted, then pushed into some florists foam or modelling clay in a pot or tub ( a big dollop of blu tack works if you are desperate!)
You can then decorate it with eggs, etc, and put shreds of green paper around the bottom, etc etc. Fluffy easter chicks can be added if they are not too girly!

Try the Usborne Easter Activities Book Jodee.
We also made and decorated papier mache Easter baskets last year. Ds' Spiderman one especially gruesome!
