Creative Easter basket ideas for all ages

Boring Easter baskets, meet your match

As we gear up for Easter festivities, there’s one tradition that always spreads smiles, no matter your age – Easter baskets! These festive gift baskets usually come full of the standard fare: jellybeans, chocolates and treat-filled plastic eggs. But if you’re tired of the usual candy craze and looking to do something a bit more creative this year, look no further.

Whether you’re putting together Easter baskets for kids, teens, friends or even yourself, make this holiday extra special for the ones you care about with these four themed gift baskets fit for Easter-lovers of any age (chocolate bunnies encouraged, but not required). From ideas for the basket itself to fun fillers to who it’s perfect for, we’ve got you covered.

1. Easter basket idea for kids: Zoo animal basket

For this themed Easter basket, look to animals for inspiration! Fill your basket with goodies featuring your little one’s favourite critter or go wild with a variety of animal-inspired treats. For toddlers, we find that the Littles Carry-AllTM Caddy and the Small Essential Storage Tote make the perfect mini Easter baskets. Plus, to make them truly zoo-themed, you can personalize these styles with your child’s name and an animal Icon-It™ – choose from elephants, fish, owls and more! 

Fill this basket with:

  • Animal stickers
  • A stuffed animal
  • Cinch Sac personalized with an animal Icon-It™ (We also love the sloth, llama and fox designs!)
  • Animal crackers

2. Easter basket stuffers for teens: Next stop, summer

When Easter arrives, we know summer is just around the corner! Your teens will be excited for summer break, so why not gift them a basket full of essentials they can use on their summer adventures? We think opting for a Small Essential Storage Tote for this Easter basket is a great choice for teens and tweens – it makes a perfect little goodie bag, plus they’ll be able to use it long after the holiday is over as a lunch sack or tote. Or, you can tuck their goodies inside the chic Felt Storage Bin, which transitions easily into a convenient room organizer after the Easter candy is long gone.

Fill this basket with:

  • Tumbler or water bottle
  • Sunglasses
  • Scrunchies
  • Gift card to an ice cream shop
  • Clear Clip Pouch (This food-safe pouch is perfect for summer snacks!)
  • Photo Key Fob (Personalize this keychain with a fond summer memory.)
  • Fruity gummies

3. Self-care Easter basket ideas for adults

Everyone loves a thoughtful gift, which is why we believe Easter baskets aren’t just for kids! Gifting a friend (or yourself!) a sweet basket full of self-care essentials is a great way to show you’re thinking of them and that you care. For an elevated take on the Easter basket, go for a Tiny Utility Tote embroidered with the name, initial or monogram of the person you’re giving it to.

Fill this basket with:

  • Eye mask
  • Lotion
  • Essential oils
  • Candle
  • Notecards with encouraging words or a thoughtful note written on them
  • Flowers
  • Notebook or journal
  • A cute makeup pouch (The Half-Moon Pouch is our personal fave.)
  • Mug
  • Tea
  • Chocolate or homemade cookies

4. Easter basket idea for anyone: Cute crafts!

This one is an Easter basket idea for all! Get creative with an arts and crafts themed basket filled with colourful art supplies and stationery. Cater your basket to crafts you know the person enjoys or choose a variety of fun supplies so they can let their imagination run wild. The Canvas Storage Caddy has all the pockets you need to tuck pencils, pens and some sweet Easter treats inside, plus it looks even cuter when personalized with an embroidered monogram.
