40 Easter Basket Ideas for Kids

A-Tisket, A-Tasket, Start With a Basket

The best Easter basket ideas start with the perfect vessel. Keep it classic with a traditional rattan basket from Olli Ella, personalized with a custom bow from Winn and William you can use year after year. If you'd like a cohesive look, add stuffers with an Easter motif like florals or bunnies, and use a color to tie things together, like yellows and creams for a baby chick basket. Here are our go-to ways to keep it fresh.

An Easter Basket for Baby Bunnies

Snag sweet bloomers, bonnets, booties, and babies for the under-one set. Swap out a traditional woven Easter basket for a softer version in canvas – or use a baby blanket. We love gifts that match babies' age and stage, that just happened to feature a woodland bunny or baby chick, like an activity pad for tummy time or a rolling toy that will give crawling babies something to reach for as they explore.  

An Easter Basket For Toddlers

Celebrate spring with an Easter basket filled with whimsical, hands-on fun for curious toddlers. Instead of a traditional basket, try a child-sized watering can or a fabric tote they can carry on their own. Tuck in a set of soft floral or bunny-shaped hair clips, a wooden or fabric wand for magical play, and a pair of toddler-friendly gardening tools—perfect for helping in the dirt or playing pretend.

An Easter Basket for Preschoolers

Use the cheerful mascots of spring as the starting point for a classic Easter basket––from sunny bunny prints to silky carrots. Layer in stickers, and a Bunny Hop Mixer for aspiring chefs. Tucked it all into a vintage picnic basket. 

An Easter Basket for Bigger Kids

Fill their basket with a mix of sweet treats and playful surprises that make Easter extra special. Move beyond the stuffed animals to craft activities and a colorful puzzle they can tackle on their own or with the family.

An Easter Basket for Tweens

Skip the jelly beans and go with a few pieces that feel just a little grown-up for the summer ahead. Think: simple studs, a journal paired with metallic pens, a floral hair comb, and some spring-forward accessories.
