Easter is just around the corner and as a mom of five I like to plan ahead, so that I can create meaningful baskets for each one. I love using Easter baskets but I also love using a little untraditional baskets, such as cute bags for girls to fill them up or rain boots to fill up for boys.
I have five kids — 3 boys and 2 girls ages 1-8 years old so I am going share different basket ideas you can use too.
Easter baskets
Growing up we didn’t have Easter baskets, our traditions are a little different and while it’s important for us to keep our traditions I love the idea of a basket with small thoughtful gifts.
I am not big on filling up baskets with lots of candy, or making elaborative baskets. I go simple with the kids baskets and like to use things that are useful to each kid. I have rounded up 100+ basket fillers for you here.
My favorite basket fillers include:
— Book
— Spring/summer pajamas
— Sandals/rain boots
— A fun activity to do
— Board game
— Coloring book/coloring pencils
— Hair accessories (bow, hat, baseball cap, etc.)
— Puzzle
— Swimsuits
— Slippers/socks
— Sunglasses
— A fun craft to do
Easter Basket for my five year old

Basket filler: book, bunny doll, Easter eggs for craft, Yum Earth lollipop & fruit snack, Pez, hair bows, magnetic princess dress up activity, and spring pajama.
Full disclosure: She also has the jelly bean bag in pink that I was going to use, but she has been asking for a basket for her kitchen and she loves bunnies, so I grabbed this one for her.

Hope this helps you fill your kids Easter baskets with fun and meaningful gifts. I link so many great items here for you as an inspiration but by no means do you need to feel like you need it all. Follow me on Instagram @mrs.vesnatanasic and Tik Tok see more fun ideas and home decor!
