    Easter baskets in America 50-60 years ago when I was a child: colorful grass, one chocolate bunny, one cream egg, possibly one of those panoramic eggs with the scene inside, a few colored hard boiled eggs, and jelly beans. And I loved it! Did I miss anything?

      @@sodapopmermaid7897 Ah yes, the little plastic eggs! Those weren’t common in my day, but my mom did use the L’eggs pantyhose eggs when those came out. We each got one and she would put some change, maybe a chapstick, and some other little trinkets in there. I guess I’m officially old now because I keep thinking of those times as “the good old days.” 😂

      @@ellengrace4609 I’ve never heard of that but I looked it up and they’re so funny!! it’s cool to have like a beauty themed Easter thing though, I love that! honestly, we didn’t spend much for Easter (though we got some cheap chocolate, and my grandparents often spoiled us a bit) because our ‘nice’ sweets happened on sinterklaas day! we would put our shoes outside the door and when we woke up we’d have Dutch chocolates and lindt truffles- I would try so hard to make those last all year but they always ran out within a couple months 😂

    The British Version in your short is like it used to be here in Germany when i was a child (i'm 34 now) and your American version is how it's like here today.
    When we were kids we also got the traditional Easter Baskets with coloured hardboiled eggs, a chocolate easter bunny and some other sweets (mostly "Kinder" chocolates like the "Kinder Surprise Eggs" and "Kinder Schokobons") and my sister and i considered ourselves lucky to also always get 1 or 2 additional small gifts, like a plushie and a book or a board game, a CD or something like that and that was it and we were more than happy with it. 😊
    Nowadays the gifts children get on Easter are just as numerous and expensive as birthday and christmas gifts...it's crazy to me! 😅

      I got like, two or three small things on easter, easter for me was always finding eggs with either some small candy or a dollar, and the cascarones, that's it.

But now, it's like all the holidays are just an excuse to buy jewelry or other expensive things for the kids. I'll never understand.

    Easter basket in Poland:
    A piece of bread, meat, salt, pepper, mustard, cooked eggs and an ( edible ) easter lamb figurine ( the basics, but you can show off here 😅 ) in a wicker basket, decorated with boxtree branches.
    The whole thing is brought into the church and put on a long table there ( with other baskets ).
    Then the priest will consecrate it with holy water and you can eat the now sacred food with your family then.

    As a Brit, I never had an Easter basket. I just received eggs. I had no idea people got baskets full of sweets and other gifts.
    I found out that Build-A-Bear do baskets on their website, where you can put a regular plush with accessories, a small plush, and assorted extras like scrunchies and slap bracelets into a basket as a gift. I'd have probably made one for myself if it wasn't for the fact that I'm actually satisfied with my Build-A-Bear collection.

    Britain definitely does Easter baskets. But just with a large egg and a bunch of small ones.
