Looking for some Easter basket ideas for babies and toddlers? I mean, really, what in the world are you supposed to put in a baby or toddler Easter basket? They definitely don’t need loads of candy but yet we still want to do at least something for their first (or second) Easter.

When I started to purchase things for my son’s Easter basket, I was at a total loss of what to buy. Everything in the Easter section was either candy or toys for older children.
I remember spending hours time strolling through Target looking for things that would fit into his basket. I became desperate for Easter basket ideas for babies and toddlers – everything in the stores was geared towards older children.
I don’t know about you, but for me, filling an Easter basket for a 3-month-old was difficult. This year, I had too many ideas. I couldn’t even fit it all into Carl’s basket!
So I thought I would share with you Carl’s finished Easter basket from many years ago. I have included pictures of the items below and links to matching options from Amazon.
Check out my Curated List of Amazon List of Baby & Toddler Easter Basket Ideas here.
It has a variety of ideas from books, to socks, to cute age-appropriate toys. You can shop for Easter in your pjs (and save money on most items while doing it).

His basket is my Easter basket from when I was a child. It’s the only real non-girly item I was able to pass down to him (not sure he’d be too crazy about my Samantha doll).
What’s inside of your child’s Easter basket this year? I would love to hear some more ideas so I can add them to my list!

Let’s Take a Look Inside my Baby’s Easter Basket!

- Bubbles (this wand from Amazon would work great)
- Ollie’s Easter Eggs (Gossie & Friends) This was my oldest favorite book series, it is so sweet and perfect for little ones. (find it here).
- Bath toys (there are so many options but these are closest to what we bought).
- Shortbread cookies (these from Amazon would be perfect.)
- Chick Straw Cup (this adorable Stanely style cup would be perfect!)
- V-Tech Race Cars (these are similar to what we purchased)

- Wiffle balls (Although I was informed by my wiffle ball aficionado that these are not true wiffle balls… oops.. who knew there was a difference? (here are some from Amazon).
- Cute socks (our son was Lightning McQueen Obsessed – here are some cute toddler options!)
- Mini-chocolate bunny from Target (here is a chocolate bunny option on Amazon but it would be cheaper in store!)
- Bunny socks (I love to do holiday themed socks and Easter is no exception! Here are some cute Easter socks).
- Outdoor chalk and holder (this is a great inexpensive chalk set on Amazon or grab this adorable Egg-shaped chalk)

- Children’s books of any kind! (Easter themed books would be a great option!) I can’t take the credit for this one, my husband grabbed this one day while out. I think he may be a little tired of reading all of the baby books.
- Dr. Seuss: Green Eggs & Ham and Other Stories DVD. (you can find it here on Amazon. This or any children’s DVD (or book alternative) would be a great option. Even though we stream so much, we still find a need for DVDs at time).

- Fisher-Price Silly Sounds Puzzle (this is a new option available now and it is SO cute) I
may haveoverbought with this one…for some reason, I thought it would fit in the basket.
