Welcome to the post that started it all!

Way back in 2013, I published the original version of this blog post - 101 Ideas For Baby's First Easter Basket. I had just started publishing my stocking stuffer ideas a few months before, & thought this would be a good follow-up post. Tens of thousands of pins and views later, I'd say that was a good idea! 🙂

What Do Babies Need in an Easter Basket?

This post has been visited so many times by new parents who have no clue what a baby might need in their Easter Basket. To sum it up - they need a lot of practical stuff.

The fact that I even published this post is kind of ironic. With my first baby, I barely even made an Easter basket. She was 2 weeks old on her first Easter and we were in total survival mode. My second was only 6 weeks old at his first Easter so that basket wasn't much better.

However, looking back, I can see that babies really don't need a lot of "fun" Easter gifts - they honestly won't use them. Of course something like a lamb or bunny stuffed animal is cute in the first Easter basket. Buy, I like to focus on the practical, unique items you might not have received at a baby shower.

Where to Find the Best Easter Basket Fillers

As you'll see with the links below, I'm an Amazon girl. 🙂 You just can't beat the selection and the shipping speed (most of the time). There are tons of great Easter ideas. You name it, you can find it on Amazon!

I'm also a big fan of shopping at Target and Walmart online. You'll find great prices and a great selection in those stores. If you're looking for a few nicer items (especially Easter outfits), check out Nordstrom. There, you'll get more quality items (but usually more expensive). And, finally, Etsy is a fabulous resource if you want some more unique gifts for Easter morning!

Let's take a look at over 100 useful, fun, and unique Easter treats you can give your baby in his/her first Easter basket!

(Of course, you are the judge of whether or not your baby is ready for any of these products. Please ensure toys are recommended for babies that fall in your child's age range before purchase. And as always, supervise your children while using these products!)

More Tips for Baby's First Easter

  • Combine gifts! Give your baby something they can wear to an Easter Egg Hunt or church on Easter Sunday. You've got to buy it anyway - make it a gift.
  • Think about what they'll be using in the next few months. Items for summer (shorts, t-shirts, swimsuits, pool toys & accessories) are all really useful things you might not already have.

FAQs

Keep it practical! A couple of fun goodies are great, but with babies, "gifting" them items they need is the way to go. I loved using bottles, pacifiers, bath toys, and even outfits in my kids' easter baskets.

Amazon is your friend. I find most of my gift ideas on bigger sites, like Amazon. I also love shopping at Walmart, Target, Nordstrom, and even Etsy for the best Easter basket ideas!

Babies can enjoy the fun items too! You could give your infant bubbles, car seat or stroller toys, sunglasses, bunny ears, or even their first chocolate bunny if they're getting closer to toddler age.
