Aesthetic Easter Basket Inspiration for Toddlers and Kids

Pastel Easter Basket Stuffers

Cuddle and Kind dolls: As mentioned above, I ordered two Cuddle and Kind bunnies this year (size: little). I have loved them for years but never ordered them before because they are an investment. This year, I was able to spend a little more and decided to go for it because they are so cute. I also love that Cuddle and Kind supports their artisans with fair wages, and donates meals to kids for each doll sold.

Bunny shaped chalk: Also mentioned above, I purchased the handmade chalk bunnies from Twee! This is another small business and I was excited to be able to support them this year. I love the pastel colors and adorable chalk shapes.

Water bottles: Summer is coming and it seems we are always looking for kids water bottles around our house! I chose these ones by Simple Modern because they are a little larger (18 oz) and good for older kids.

Swimsuits and clothes: Always a fan of practical items, I ordered new swimsuits as well as a floral dress for my daughter.

Easter baskets: These coil rope baskets are from Target and my go to choice for kids gift baskets and organizing.

Easter treats: Finally, I chose just a few Easter treats including Partake cookies that all of our family members can enjoy (the cookies are gluten free and vegan) and candy from Target (not GF DF).

Easter baskets: I found these cute bunny ear baskets from Target a few years ago–here is a similar option from Amazon.

Spring Clothes: I included a spring dress for my daughter and a button down shirt for my son to wear on Easter Sunday.

Sunglasses: These retro kids sunglasses come in a pack of eight and are perfect for toddlers and young kids! Here is a similar set of sunglasses that are flower shaped.

Books: We love the Story Orchestra books because they play music and have beautiful illustrations! So, I picked out The Story Orchestra: Four Seasons. Another perfect kids book for Easter is The Good Egg! Finally, I got this book about the Lego lost at sea for my son.

Toys and Art Supplies: Finally, my daughter and I have been drawing pictures of Pusheen the Cat lately, so she is getting a little strawberry cake Pusheen and coloring book. Cute Easter pop it toys are budget friendly but always a “wow” gift to my kids.
