Save the Bunny!
Mattel has come up with the most brilliant giveaway for Easter! They want us to “Save the Bunny”. How? Instead of loading those Easter baskets full of chocolate and candies, Mattel is promoting “toys instead of chocolate”, encouraging parents to fill those baskets with surprises that inspire hours of creative, healthy, and sugar-free play.
This adorable video heartily endorsed by our kids explains it ALL!!!
It’s like this campaign is speaking to Ellen. Behold the drawer in her daughter’s room where chocolate bunnies go to grow old. That is LAST year’s bunny, folks!
Jellybean doesn’t so much like to EAT the candy as to HAVE the candy.
And what about Erin? She has FIVE kids. If those basket were filled to the brim with chocolate, her dentist might be able to put in that custom fieldstone fire pit. It’s no wonder that we are both fans of filling those baskets with toys.
Need some inspiration?
Look at these adorable basket ideas from Mattel.
Need more inspiration? How about FREE toys!
Enter below to win a Mattel Easter Basket filled to the brim with Hot Wheels, Barbie, Thomas & Friends, Fisher Price, Monster High and more!
PLUS there are 10 Second Place prizes of either a Hot Wheels multi-pack or Barbie Madison doll. How cool is that? What are you waiting for?
Winners will be picked March 29th and your prize will be delivered directly from Mattel.
Good luck to everyone mine are too old for baskets and my grandbaby is too young for the toy one.. Sighs..

Brilliant idea, although I could have a very sad 4yo if there’s no candy!
There could be a little candy. 😉 Ellen
Wonderful prize and great Easter basket idea!
I adore this! Toys instead of candy! so will my kids & their orthodontist! What a wonderful way to market & promote! I’m a fan!!!! Good luck everyone!
What a great promotion!
Fun! We definitely try to do toys/games/movies instead of candy, too! So much easier than the sugar fueled insanity of too many Peeps!

What an awesome giveaway. Crossing my fingers for a great Easter basket!
Such a great idea!
I’ve always done toys and very little candy so I’m super excited about this give away! I haven’t soon my shopping yet so I hope I win!
My 3-year old boy would love one of these baskets! Thanks.
My kids would love this!
I love the idea of not-candy easter basket, especially for my boys (no brightly-colored easter candy for us.)

I think my grandkids would love this. Wouldn’t miss the candy at all.
Absolutely! Erin
