Easter Basket Ideas for Kids & Tweens

What day is it? I don’t know. It’s motuwethufrisunday. But that’s what it feels like in my home. And I’m pretty sure in all this confusion that you, like me, forgot that Easter is right around the corner!

We’ve had quite a few unconventional Easter’s (like the one in Hawaii where we used colanders for baskets) and this year will probably feel like the most normal and grounding thing we do in the midst of everything else that is happening. And hopefully, you and your family are able to make the most of this Easter Sunday and create a little normalcy!

And I’ve rounded up all my Easter picks for kids and tweens to help keep them busy, creative, and to bring you together!

Shop My Picks For Kids

Right now my boys are obsessed with one thing: Pokemon. The cards, the carrying cases…everything! But I’ve got a few other things on my list this year that I think any kids would love like Nerf guns, Legos, and some fun supplies to make boondoggles!

• Jett loves his bug kit!

* My kids have played with water beads a ton and love them.

• And I love these small bead-art kits!

Shop My Picks For Tweens

My picks this year for tweens is a lot easier! My girls have been into the funnest things and my picks totally reflect what’s keeping them busy!

Tie-Dye is everything right now! Grab a kit and keep all your kids busy. Make sure you’ve got plenty of rubber bands, plastic gloves, and having a how-to book isn’t a bad thing to have either!

* And my girls have been into beading and even started a new business! These letter ones are the newest edition and make sure you’ve got stretchy cord!

• Nails have been a big deal around my house as well so I thought a home-pedicure spa would be fun!

• Or maybe your tweens just need something or someone to take care of other than themselves! Tamagotchis are a fun throwback and will keep them busy!

* Get something that will drive the whole family crazy like this gradient puzzle!
