Easter is almost here! As everyone celebrates spring and the holiday, they look for little ways to make the time special for kiddos.
Easter baskets are a major trend in some areas. While there are some really nice premade ones out there, they may not be within everyone's budget. DIYing your child's Easter basket can give you an awesome opportunity to give them not only a special gift but something that really caters to what they're into this year.
If you're stumped on ideas, allow us to inspire you. These are some awesome themes for Easter baskets that you can put together without breaking the bank.
Music
If you've got a kid who loves music, build their Easter basket around that love. You can include some books about music or musicians, a gift card to wherever they get music, or even a simple instrument. Parents love this rollup piano that is great for beginners without taking up too much space.
Art
Support your local art scene by starting in your own home! Foster your little artist with this huge art set, which includes 132 art products. The products will help your creative one explore all different kinds of mediums in a convenient on-the-go case.
Sports
Some kids are just naturally athletically gifted. Embrace that gift by getting them into America's pastime and the sport that dominates spring and summer. A baseball glove is a nice gift for a beginner. Add a few balls, some books about players, and even some Big League Chew to bring the basket together.
Board Games
Board games are a great way for families to pass the time. Some kids really take to the friendly competition. Others like cooperative board games, which are also easy to find these days. If you're looking for something to play together, try What Do You Meme? Family Edition.
Beauty
More little ones are into glam than ever before! It's easy to put together a few simple pieces to make a nice Easter basket. Tie it all together with the perfect mirror to give you the best lighting to do it up!
Video Games
Let's face it: Most kids are obsessed with some video game or another. Instead of fighting it, find a way to incorporate it in the Easter basket so kids know it's not all bad blood when it comes to screen time. Build a basket around their favorite character, and add a themed controller to tie it together.
Reading
Reading is a hobby that a lot of kids get really into. Nurture your bookworm with some of their favorite titles, a book light, and, of course, bookmarks. We love this set that lets kids color their own while encouraging them with inspirational quotes.
Individuality
Have a kid who is super into setting themselves apart from the pack? Individuality is a great thing to celebrate, and you can incorporate that into their Easter basket. One great product to add is a set of Bic BodyMark Temporary Tattoo Markers, which let teens experiment with body modification without making it permanent!
