SHOPPING

Now, every Easter you will find thousands of chocolate bunnies and eggs and man other forms of festive candies in stores. But what should we really hide in the garden for kids? How much chocolate can we consume during 1 Easter weekend? It has become some sort of custom to also add little gifts to the baskets. I just found this sweet little item at Monaco's 'Joue Club' in Fontevielle, which in my opinion makes for a great Easter gift, as it is not edible and also not just another small toy that gets forgotten to quick in a corner. And it looks great hidden in a little basket with some colored eggs.

It is called 'Basilic The Basil' and is a little 'grow-yourself' plant for children.  It is in small green round pot. The kids get to water it and see it grow. A little gardening experience. And , with some luck, mom can cut and put the basil on top of some mozzarella a few days later :)
