You'll Want To Make *All* Of These Adorable Easter Treats

During the spring season, my kids typically have some sort of Easter celebration at school. Whether they call it a spring fling, spring party, or an Easter party, the theme usually involves plenty of pastel colored decor, candy, and a few snacks. Teachers often request that parents bring spring or Easter-themed snacks for the class to enjoy at these parties, but finding an Easter treat that is fun and tasty for kids, and also easy to put together at home can be a challenge. Luckily, this list of Easter snacks for kids to take to school features plenty of recipes and ideas to inspire you.

While most of these Easter snacks for school are homemade, I know as well as any working mom (or even a tired, busy stay-at-home mom — I've been both) that making a school treat completely from scratch is not always the most convenient option. So, when time is of the essence, feel free to get creative and assemble some store-bought, semi-homemade goodness to pass out at your kid's school. That is most definitely my go-to move when classroom Easter celebrations pop up, although I do love enthusiastically attempting the homemade options once in a while as well. Regardless of the route you choose, these Easter snack ideas for school will have your kid hopping for joy as they share the deliciousness you create with their classmates.
