55 Candy Free Easter Egg Filler Ideas

A few years back, I wrote a post on 55 candy free Easter egg filler ideas.  At the time, this was a must for our family because my son was diagnosed at 4 years old with a soy allergy.  It was a scary time for us and he was so incredibly sick.  I wanted to keep his childhood as normal as possibly despite the fact that he couldn’t have most candies.  Chocolate was especially out of the question since soy is used as an emulsifier in almost every affordable brand.

Last fall, I thought it would be a great idea to delete some old posts and in deleting, I mistakenly deleted the post I had written on this topic and several others.  That’s what happens when you bulk delete things.  It was a good post, but many things on that list aren’t so readily available or so popular anymore.  Like those rubber band bracelet thingies.  I don’t even know if they sell those anymore!  What were they even called?

I figured a 2017 edition of the candy free Easter egg ideas was in order.  Happily, I add that I don’t have to do candy free Easters anymore for our family.  My son has outgrown his soy allergy!  We do try to keep the candy to a minimum for behavior issues around here.  I hope the rest of you can enjoy this post and even comment to tell me some other things to add!

    Bracelets were called silly bands! I just found some of the girls and put them in the trash! They were all over my house!

    Thanks for the ideas!

    We like to do a new toothbrush/toothpaste, soap, etc. Kaiden is asking for Pokémon cards and more figurines for the Infinity video games. Usually do a tshirt, jammies or flip flops too. We try to avoid candy, the “Easter bunny” brings all this candy usually and we usually end up throwing it all away because we don’t eat a lot of it…oh but we do like our gummy fruit snacks
