| Is it OK to give children outside my immediate family a gift of candy? Some parents don't mind an added indulgence to the Easter basket. Others feel that candy should be limited. We recommend asking parents in advance. If you are looking for an alternative to candy, there are many wonderful games, plush animals and toys that will provide long-lasting delight. A gift certificate is also a thoughtful way to extend holiday enjoyment long after the chocolate bunnies and eggs have been consumed. I'm attending an Easter brunch at my neighbor's home. Do you have a gift suggestion? With this holiday's emphasis on springtime and renewal, a beautiful potted plant, lily or a gift for the garden is always welcome. But any hostess gift with an Easter theme or springtime colors would be a nice touch.
