Five FUN Easter Basket Fillers!

Easter is just around the corner, and my kids are so excited! I’ve been slowly collecting little things for their Easter Baskets. If you’re interested in any of the items for your family, click on the picture and it will take you directly to that item on Amazon. If you decide to make a purchase, I will receive a small affiliate commission at no extra cost to you.

  1. Socks

Do your kids go through socks as fast as mine do? This is why my kids are getting socks for Easter instead of candy. (I’m only halfway kidding) Thankfully, my boys still LIKE getting new socks, so this is FUN for them!

2. Drawing pad/sketchbook

I like for my kids to have a BLANK pad of paper somewhere close by at all times. Whether you have a child who is 2 or 22 – they will DRAW and draw and color and draw if given blank paper and pencils.  This set I’ve linked to below is a pack of four for only $7.99- perfect if you have more than one child’s basket to fill. 

 

3. New markers or crayons, or colored pencils

The erasable colored pencils below are something my son has asked for, and they are only $3.39 on Amazon right now – less than half of what they cost in the store. The twistable crayons are a great price too! I’m getting my bigger boys the pencils and the little guys the crayons.


4. LEGO Holiday Easter Egg Hunt Building Kit

For your son or daughter who loves to build – this is an Easter Lego set! My son George told me all he wants for any occasion are Legos.

5. Devotional for kids

In this post, I will recommend the best Bibles for different age groups. However, if your son, daughter or grandchild already has a Bible – perhaps you could add a devotional to their Easter Basket. Here are some recommendations:

Indescribable: A Bible Devotional for kids about God and Science:

This Devotional has amazing reviews Amazon and was written by a fantastic author and speaker: Louie Giglio. We just received ours in the mail and LOVE IT!!!! It’s got fascinating facts about Creation and such good insight into God’s word. It’s a book that my boys and I will enjoy together

3 minute devotional for boys (ONLY $3.56!!)

I just bought this for my son’s Easter Basket. 3 minutes sounds about right for my active boys!

3 minute Devotional for girls:

Purpose Driven Life Devotional for kids – Based on the Best Selling Devotional for Adults, this children’s devotional has tons of positive reviews!

And one final suggestion:

If you haven’t yet purchased a copy of “Climb, Soar, Swim, Explore!” …. then NO basket will be complete without this book! Find it on amazon buy clicking here. This book has all 5 star reviews and is a fun Colorado adventure story for kids ages 1-10. You will enjoy this story and learn some fun facts about Colorado Wildlife!

    What age do you recommend the devotionals for? I feel like my DS6 is too young, but DS8 may be ready…
