EASTER BASKETS FOR KIDS
Kids Easter Baskets are usually the cutest and most fun to put together, and these ideas are no different! I don’t know how I’m supposed to choose my favorite!
1. Baby Swing Basket – Let’s start with the youngest “peeps” on our lists—how cute is this baby swing basket idea? The basket itself is super functional and perfect for warm weather, and you can stuff it with all the snacks, clothes, and toys your baby needs anyway!
2. Stuffed Animal Basket – I just love the look of this sweet, classic Easter basket with natural-looking, Montessori-style toys. Top it off with one of these cute animals from Cuddle + Kind, and this basket is sure to be a hit!
3. Dump Truck Easter Basket – I’m sure every little boy would love to find that his Easter Basket is a dump truck! Fill it with little toys or candy, and his Easter will totally be made.
4. Potty Trainer Easter Basket – This is just too clever for words. If you’ve got a potty trainer at home, why not fill a new potty with treats? What a great way to get your little one pumped about potty training AND knock Easter out of the park all at once.
5. Rain Boot Easter Basket – The perfect gift for springtime—rain boots full of Easter fun! These rain boots are a huge hit on Amazon, and I can see why—there are so many colors and patterns to choose from.
6. Book Themed Baskets – I absolutely LOVE this basket idea. There are so many fun book options you could use, and this is a basket they are sure to remember forever. (I was especially drawn to this one because my kids looooove the Dragons Love Tacos books.)
7. Umbrella Easter Basket – Another super functional spring favorite! Using an umbrella is such a clever idea, and this big basket is a sure way to put a smile on your kids’ faces.

9. Art Lover Easter Basket – If you’ve got an art lover on your hands, then you are in luck. There are so many quick and easy ideas to make an art-themed Easter basket. Even the classic, colorful eggs perfectly fit the theme! Try some color wonder pages or bathtub finger paint for some clean, colorful fun.
