  • AboutBrisbane Kids Creative was created by me! Ngaire Stirling. I wont pretend to talk in the third person about myself, instead let me tell you a bit about me and how 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came about. At the time the domain name 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for purchase I was a stay at home mum in the middle of a degree centred around journalism and PR. a couple of years earlier I had been contemplating returning to my previous career in marketing management and for a while I even tried. 3 months into a new role and it was clear that I had no passion for my old life and to make the decision to quit easier, my almost 2 year old at the time was not coping with childcare. So, as a family we made the decision for me to return to becoming a stay at home mum. About 1 years later or so.. 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for sale. My friends had often commented on my ability to know exactly what was happening in Brisbane for kids. I had my son enrolled in some awesome activities and we often visited some great destinations. I loved finding fun things for us to do…

Ultimate Guide | Non Chocolate Easter Gift Ideas

Last Updated: March 6, 2020
non chocolate easter presents

Finding chocolate alternatives to Easter is a necessity for many families and a desire for even more. For some it is about taking away the focus of chocolate and food and for others it’s about remembering what Easter is all about. If you DO want to buy your child a gift for Easter that is not related in anyway to chocolate then we have found the ultimate for you. Infact, of all of our 30 Non Chocolate Easter Gift Ideas only one is food.

Non-Chocolate Easter Gifts

  • Buy plastic Easter eggs from the $2 shop and put little tiny trinkets inside them
  • New Bunny Slippers which you will find at most major clothing stores
  • Easter is an ideal time to buy chickens if you were thinking about it
  • Easter-themed clothing (check out Big W, Cotton on, Target etc)
  • An Easter Hamper
  • A Dinosaur hatching egg
  • Playdough rolled into eggs wrapped in clingfilm and placed in an egg carton
  • If chocolate is the main problem then cupcakes may be a nice alternative with little candy eggs on top
  • Your time. Take a picnic, get offline- enjoy the day with your children in the outdoors.
  • Easter stickers

Other chocolate-free Gift Ideas

Pull along Duck

Ok… so ducks aren’t strictly Easter, but it does remind us of new life and sunshine and happiness and all things that remind us of Easter so why not buy your little one a pull along Duck this Easter! We found an Ever Earth Duck at Knock on Wood Toys

Nanoblock Rabbit

If you have a Brisbane Kid who loves lego then they will LOVE Nanoblocks. This bunny themed Nano creation will probably sit at no more than a few centimetres high making for the perfect on shelf display that will last forever. We found this one in one of our favourite Brisbane Toy Shops- Flying Fox’s Shop at Everton Park.

An Easter DVD like Hop

An Easter DVD is a great way to wind down after a day in the outdoors. Other popular Easter DVD’s include Peter Rabbit, Rise of the Guardians and the Dog who saved Easter.

An Easter Book

The Country Bunny was and is one of my favourite books of all time. It tells the story of a mother rabbit who dreams of becoming the Easter Bunny.

An Easter Nightlight

The Woodland Easter Bunny offers a lovely glow and is portable (as it is battery powered).  If a battery-powered nightlight worries you, My Night Light has other corded night lights (including a range of the Hello Kitty bunny). See the full range of bunny night lights at https://www.mynightlight.com.au/

Easter Jewellrey

This Oobi Easter Brooch is just way too stylish! How perfect for Easter brunch!

A Bashful Bunny

This Jellycat Bunny from Lime Tree Kids is just looking for a lovely boy or girl to call its own

BASHFUL BUNNY

A pair of new socks

We love these socks from local Brisbane business Lili Life. Bright and cheerful socks are always a fun gift alternative especially for family who would otherwise not want chocolate. These socks also come in matching adult and kids sizing which we love!

    Is a “pajama” anything similar to half a pair of pyjamas? Brisbane is in Australia, not the US.
