Can you believe Easter is only about a month away?! I love Easter so much. I love what Easter represents to me, but also that it's a time for family and traditions. I usually try to fill my girl's Easter baskets with lots of things OTHER than candy! (I mean a little candy can't hurt right?) So today I'm sharing what I like to fill their Easter baskets up with, along with 30 other cute Easter basket stuffer ideas all from Amazon so you can order them quick and easy and be ready for Easter, no stress!
What's in my girls baskets this year
Baskets
I always like buying an Easter “basket” that can be re-used for cute storage solutions in our home! These little rose gold baskets were the perfect size and will be great for organizing stuff in the girls' bedrooms or bathroom.
Water bottles
My girls are always losing and needing new water bottles, so this was a perfect excuse to get them a couple new cute ones that had SUPER high ratings. I love that these are insulated so they'll keep water cold for hours, they are leak proof (v. important when packing into backpacks with homework!!), dishwasher safe and the perfect little size.
Sandals
Summer is coming and my kids grow out of their shoes every year, so I grabbed them some more of the same type of Birkenstock-like sandals they wore to death all summer last year! These are so super cute, come in tons of colors and are only $10. Perfect for beach or pool, spring break or all summer long.
Easter is Coming book
This book focuses more on the true meaning of Easter, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and I'm always looking for fun ways to teach my kids about that and help them remember the real reason we celebrate this season! I love that this book is so cute and has beautiful illustrations too.
Bunny Roo I Love You book
This is a darling little board book that I thought would be perfect for Millie!
Make Way for Ducklings book
This book earned a Caldecott Award so I knew it would be great to addition to my girls' collection of bedtime stories, and I thought the ducklings were cute for Easter.
Madeline Activity book
I'm always, ALWAYS searching for ways to keep my big girls entertained (quietly!) at church, and they LOVE the Madeline series. These activity books will be so fun for them to take to church on Easter Sunday.
Blocks
I loved that these blocks were SOFT and super pretty colors too! They'll be so great for Millie's bedroom or for baby brother to play with once he's here too.
Swimsuits
Another Easter basket idea is swimsuits! These swimmers are all SUPER high quality and crazy cute!! My girls go hard in their swimsuits all summer at the beach and pool, so I like to get them nicer quality suits when I can so they'll not only last a whole season, but hopefully survive for hand-me-downs too!
Easter basket fillers
My girls LOVE opening little plastic eggs on Easter morning and I loved that these came in cute pastels. I also added this festive crinkle grass to the baskets.
Candy
My two go-to Easter candies are Reese's Mini Peanut Butter Cups and Cadbury Mini Eggs of course!
