If cookie dough isn’t for you then why not try their brownie ones instead.

They are not only dairy free but also vegan friendly and absolutely delicious with lots of choice from lollies to the classics like love hearts and parma violets.

Not only is Pabobo the Mimi Bunny adorable but its also soft to touch and can be machine washed as the projector is removable. The perfect gift for those too young for chocolate.

A great idea for a dairy free Easter gift for an under 5 is a board game and what better than the Peter Rabbit Rabbit Race. Orchard Toys have created some incredible games for children that are both fun and educational and this one is no different. Designed for those aged 3 and over and for 2-4 players the Peter Rabbit Rabbit Race will have you and your child competing against each other in battle of memories as you simultaneously try and match more than your opponent and avoid Mr. McGregor!
Egg themed toys
If you are looking for a dairy free Easter gift for a little one then how about an egg themed gift. The Tomy Toomies Egg Bus is perfect for those aged 12-36 months. It comprises of a movable bus that your little one can push along and 6 eggs that can e “cracked” open to reveal birds waiting inside. This toy is great for colour matching, counting, fine motor skills and simply having fun. As your little one plays with all the characters they will also discover that the driver spins and the passengers squeak, perfect for encouraging some imaginative play.
Gabby’s Dollhouse
Of course if you have an under 5 then chances are they already have a favourite show, book or theme so you could get them a themed magazine or toy connected to that. One of the Easter gifts that we have got our daughter this year is the Gabby’s Dollhouse Kitty Camera as she just loves the program and we know she will love this too. The Kitty camera is aimed at those aged 3 and over and is super easy to use you simply insert the pre made photos in to the back of the camera, look through the hole, press the button and the pictures come out of the Kitty’s mouth in the same style as a polaroid camera. Lot’s of fun without the sugar!
Rainbow Pebbles
For a fun yet educational Easter gift for those aged 3 and over how about a set of Rainbow Pebbles from edxEducation. The set contains 36 soft, smooth and tactile pebbles and 20 double sided activity cards to get your children started. These pebbles can be used to create an array of designs, practice balancing and reinforce learning in regards to size and colour. They are great fun, versatile and will spark your child’r imagination as they try to create their own designs.
Dairy free Easter gifts for the over 5’s
If you are looking for a dairy free Easter gift for a child over 5 and want to avoid anything edible then here are some fun ideas.
The Color Addict Card Game
Card games are great fun for the whole family and the new Color Addict s no exception. Aimed at those aged 7 and over Color Addict is a fast paced card game where the aim of the game is to get rid of all your cards as quickly as you can, although things are never that easy are they?

If, like us you love a good games night then this Shadow Game from Kikkerland is perfect. You simply take it in turns and see who can create the best shadow animals using the light and instructions included and have lots of laughter in the process. Just remember to make the Easter Bunny first!
Air-ball
For the more active children how abut the Air-ball by Buzz retail? It is a floating ball that can be played on almost any surface: wooden floor, laminate, marble or even a thin carpet. It creates an air bubble underneath it so it’s actually hovering over the ground and is sure to have the children out of their seats and off the screens in no time.
