Two Days Before:
Make sure all food for
Easter has been purchased.
If you are making Easter baskets for the
kids, make sure baskets, candy, and treats have been bought and
well hidden until you need them.
Prepare any food that can be prepared now
(chop any vegetables and put in crisper)

The day before:
Make any fruit or Jell-O
salads on your menu and refrigerate.

The night before:

morning.

silverware, and china (in stacks)
Help your children set out their dress
clothes for church and check to make sure you have everything you
