Like many parents, this week we will be putting together an Easter Basket for both of our boys.
Since Easter falls during spring, I love to make sure our baskets are filled with toys/gear aimed at the Spring season and outdoor play!
Some of the things I like to include are:
- Cars
- Bubbles
- Sidewalk Chalk
- Sand Toys
- Movies
- Small Stuffed Animals
- Fruit Snacks
- Sunglasses
- Hats
and - Books
This year I received four books from Silver Dolphin Books, and they are going to be the PERFECT addition to their Easter Baskets!

Thanks for posting this!! I was looking for a good bible book to give my kids for Easter.
Great ideas for the Easter basket! I need to get some of these books for my son.
We’re not doing baskets this year, but I did buy the girls a first bible!
Wonderful ideas!
We got B a Mater Easter book!
Great list of items. Thanks for sharing.
Very cute ideas. thanks for sharing!
I don’t do Easter Baskets, but everyone in my husband’s family does, so my kids don’t miss out. I only wish they would skip all the chocolates and candy and fill the girls’ baskets with books, stickers and non-food treats.
I put a combination of candy, toys, a book and a video usually. I always liked bible story books as a kid, by the way.
Great idea! I was just telling my hubby we need to think of Easter basket ideas!
GREAT ideas!! I love LOVE love including books in their gift baskets… especially with regard to the season/holiday! 🙂
Great ideas!
So cute! Play Dough is the one thing that still makes it into my boys’ baskets, even thought they’re older!
Bubbles and Play-Doh are always in our Easter baskets.
We just do bubbles, a coloring book and candy. I like to keep them very small and simple. I like that comic book bible!
These are great options! I’m doing more books, toys and art supplies than candy this year.
I love books in Easter baskets! Great ideas!
Those books look adorable — I’m purchased all of our basket stuff early this year and now I can’t remember WHAT I got!
I’ll have to look for the playdoh one!
Those are some great ideas.
Love those basket ideas, I have been trying to cut down on the amount of candy lately.
Thanks for the recommendations! We saw one a book at the store for M and it was just too realistic and vulgar for a baby book!
Thanks for the ideas! I still have to head to the store to gather gifts.
I’m all for more books, less candy.
GREAT basket suggestions and we have really cut back on the candy!
I think this is the first year that I have not purchased an Easter book. Now I am sad face momma.
This is really wonderful! I never thought to make a basket with Easter books or these fun items, this is a GREAT idea! (you should create a pinnable photo with description to go with this post so I and others can pin it, such a great idea!)
Cute ideas! Thanks for sharing!
For my little one, I put a movie, bubbles and a little candy. Oh and silly string!
Great ideas. The Easter Bunny always brings Noah books and a stuffed animal. This year he got a Hex bug and Legos too,
When our daughter was little we always put sidewalk chalk in her Easter baskets too! Am not opposed to candy either, so she got plenty of that 😉
