The cutest Easter basket ideas for your kids that AREN’T candy and your kids will actually USE!
Can you believe Easter is upon us? Time is flyyyying these days and if there’s one thing that’s for sure, these babes just don’t keep!! Easter is probably my favorite holiday of the year – celebrating our Savior’s resurrection and what that means for us! While giving gifts is totally one of my love languages, our emphasis is most certainly on the meaning behind our celebrations.

$11 Bathing Suits
Every year the kids get a swimsuit in their baskets – it’s like the official kickoff of spring here in Ohio! My kids grow so fast that we never seem to wear the same swimsuit for two seasons…so I love finding reasonably priced swim gear! When I found these adorable $11 swimsuits I couldn’t wait to share with you all – these were the most shopped link on Instagram for 2 months in a row!
Kids Sermon Notes
I’m always trying to find ways to help my kids grow their faith and relationship with the Lord. My sermon notes is such a sweet addition to those Easter baskets – and this sweet little shop even gave us a code to use!! You can use code LINDSEY20 for 20% off your purchase! While you’re there, don’t forget to grab a cutie pen + highlighter crayon, too!
$6-$15 Red Aspen Nails
Hands down my favorite press-on nails – they last 2 weeks without damaging nails AND they come in the cutest designs for the minis too! Each set has a ton of sizes so they can fit our 3 year old all the way up to our 7 years {and will continue to fit until they get to the adult size! Our girls get them in their stockings and birthdays – they take 5 minutes to put on and are SO cute!
Kids Water Bottle
Can I get a hallelujah for waterbottles without straws – I swear it’s enough to make you lose your mind! I love these – super easy to wash and great quality – grab some stickers below to personalize and help those kiddos drink some more water!!
Easter Egg Shaped Crayons
Okaaaay how stinking cute are these?! My kids will lose their minds with these sweet little easter egg shaped crayons!
Easter Egg Chalk
Tis the season for sidewalk chalk! I’ll be honest, I can’t stand the feeling of chalk but my kids certainly don’t care and we go through caaaases of chalk in the summer – bring it onnn!
Kids Water Bottle
I’ll be honest, our water bottles typically don’t make it past 2 years – either they are lost or beat to death. These, however are super sturdy, come in multiple colors and PRAISE JESUS don’t have straws! I’m hoping they will stand the test of time with toddlers + some crazy kiddos!
God is Good Sticker + Jesus Loves you Sticker
How sweet are these stickers?! We put em on those water bottles above, on notebooks, diaries, etc – literally anything we need personalized! And isn’t GOD SO GOOD?!
Jammies {girls} + {boys}
Okaay, how precious are these jams?! The coziest jams ever, buttery soft bamboo viscose that’s gentle on sensitive or eczema-prone skin. They’re also season-less fabric and helps keep skin cool in the summer and cozy in the winter!
Unicorn + Pirate Playdoh kits
We have been happy customers of Young Wild + Friedman for years – we take them on vacation and are played with at least weekly. They have full-size kits, these medium kits and also mini ones – so cute for stockings, easter baskets, and birthday presents!!
Kids Sunglasses
HOW PRECIOUS are these little glasses?! The cutest little addition to baskets – these will be so good all summer long!
Bunny Notebook
My crew is obsessed with little notebooks – from science experiments to notes to each other in the car, we go through so many notebooks and honestly, it’s a great way to get kids excited about writing and working on those fine motor skills!
Slingshot Toy
I may regret this one later but the boy mama in me is absolutely in love with these! Mills loves to set up little buddies or legos on ledges and either shoot them with nerf guns or, I’m envisioning him slingshotting these right off the ledge!
Tic Tac Toe Bunny
I’m a sucker for all things personalized and these sweet little tic tac toe boards would be so good to keep in a purse or bag for dinners out or traveling!!
Kids Flashlight
Is it just me or are your kids obsessed with flashlights?! It never fails someone’s fighting over them so these will be the perfect little addition to their baskets!!
Hopefully these easter basket ideas that aren’t candy so helpful and you can find some little additions to your baskets this Easter! Of course, the focus is on Jesus and absolutely none of this is necessary to be able to celebrate our Salvation!!
