Easter Basket Ideas for Children
It’s just about time for the Easter bunny to fill baskets with treats and toys. These Easter Basket Ideas for Children including toddlers, tweens, and teens will help you create one of a kind basket for your kids, friends or neighbors.
After sharing the Themed Easter Baskets last year, I knew I just had to put together some fun and simple Easter Baskets to share this year. The ideas are endless, but we decided to keep it simple and do small baskets – one for toddlers, one for tweens and one for teens. Each of the baskets have a color theme, they are small, perfect for giving to friends, babysitters, the child next door, or to take to church.
For the Toddler Themed Easter Basket, we searched the store looking for yellow items that little ones would enjoy. Bubbles and a Pinwheel were a must since I used to always put those in my boys baskets when they were little. We also found some darling items in the Easter section at Walmart. And instead of candy, we made a healthy choice.
