Easter gifts for your kids that won't melt

Across many Aussie homes on Easter morning, kids will be waking up early to see what the Easter Bunny has left them and how much chocolate they can eat before breakfast.

It might be the gift of choice this time of year, but what about a gift that won't melt – or give them a tummy ache and a sugar crash for you to deal with later?

As an alternative, or as well as a chocolate bunny, here are some Easter gifts that they'll enjoy just as much.
