Moms, Easter is coming up and we’re all looking for what to put in Easter baskets for our kids that’s not just the usual candy or junk.

One mom asked: What are you putting in your kids’ Easter baskets that aren’t just junk but not expensive? Mine are ages 5 (boy) and 7 (girl) and I need ideas.

What to Put in Easter Basket

Here’s our big list of what to put in your Easter basket – there are actually almost 100 ideas here for you. When you click and buy anything we link to below you support our blog. We asked moms and here’s what they said. We hope it will inspire you whether you want toys/games or to focus on the religious meaning of Easter.
