Creative Easter Basket Ideas for Kids
Baseball Cap Easter Basket
Use a baseball hat as a basket for an older boy! This genius idea is from The Resourceful Mama. She uses it as a tween or teen boy idea which I agree is a hard one to do some years! With this Easter basket idea, my boys could get things they actually want in their Easter basket.
Paw Patrol Easter Basket
If your kids love Paw Patrol, use a big yellow dump truck as a basket and fill it with all their favorite Paw Patrol toys and snacks. My toddler and preschool age boys would have loved that, but some kids might like more of a traditional Paw Patrol Easter baskets:
- Paw Patrol – Chase the Police Dog Easter Basket
- Paw Patrol – Marshall the Fire Dog Easter Basket
- Paw Patrol – Skye the Flying Dog Easter Basket
Little Wagon Easter Basket
A wagon makes the perfect basket for spring gardening! Add tiny gardening gloves and snacks, too. Frogs, Snails and Puppy Dog Tails has a really fun plan for a full wagon of goodies that boys, girls…and yes even adults will love. Any type of wagon will work:
- Grab the traditional Radio Flyer Woodie Wagon
- Or if you have someone that needs a stroller, check out the Radio Flyer Convertible Stroller Wagon…is it so cool!
- The super popular Step2 All Around Wagon
- The Radio Flyer 16.5 Retro Toy Wagon

Tackle Box Easter Basket
For the fisherkids at your house, a tackle box makes such a fun Easter basket filled with goodies! For the babies and toddlers, you can use the My First Tackle Box toy and make a basket out of that. Add in a fun fishing game! Older kids may love the Shakespeare Cosmic Tackle Box in orange or pink.
Shopping Cart Easter Basket
This sweet first Easter basket uses a tiny plastic shopping cart full of fun things a baby would love. They use this as a baby gift, but we thought that the shopping cart idea is really genius for Easter baskets! Here are a few of my favorite toy shopping carts that you could use for Easter:
- Pink Plastic Shopping Grocery Cart Toy

Minecraft Easter Basket
Make your own Minecraft creeper box and fill it with all things Minecraft! It looks like that idea used a Minecraft Creeper Head Costume “mask” which is literally a box (we have one so I recognize it) or you could use the Minecraft Creeper Storage Cubes.
