Jesus has risen! Here's your tank...I dunno, just sounds tacky ;)I agree totally.
Whatever happened to the simple Easter baskets with multicolor grass, an easter egg, jelly beans, colored hard boiled eggs and maybe a chocolate bunny? Why do their have to be toys in everything?
Toys aren't fattening, perhaps? What ever happened to Easter Baskets with hand decorated hard boiled eggs in them? Does candy have to be in everything?

Oh come on. Candy doesn't have to be filled to the brim in the basket. It's a sweet treat and nothing more. Yes, we too had hand decorated hard boiled eggs that we colored after we deocrated by hand putting our names on the eggs with wax. We also had tissue transfers of Easter lillies and bunnies and other things.
We have gotten away from the really simple things in life. A little candy for children is not harmful and neither in my opinion are plastic soldiers. However, the plastic soldiers SHOULD NOT be in the Easter basket. I dont' see how they are relevant to the holiday of fun and spring and eggs and candy for children to enjoy.
Adults need to go back to the simple things of life for their children and get off this toys, trips, etc. ride they ahve been on for way too long.
Corporations too. It's out of control!
