Easter was always a big celebration for my family growing up. I knew that I wanted to celebrate with my kids too.
One of the traditions I wanted to pass down to my kids is Easter baskets!
I didn’t wait until I had older kids, and neither do you. You can start a fun tradition with your baby or one year old for Easter morning too.
My son was only 8 months old on his first Easter. He didn’t have a clue what was going on since he is only a baby, but his eye lit up when he pulled each item out of the basket.
Plus it was a lot of fun for me to put together!
I found a basket at Goodwill for $2. It was the exact shape that I wanted. However, it was perfect for a little girl. So I took the beads off and spray painted it.
Now it is his own basket that he uses every single year.
The basket filler, rubber duck, bubble wand, and board books were all from Dollar Tree. The sippy cup came from Walmart.
As you can see, I kept his baby Easter basket pretty simple. I didn’t include any jelly beans or candy since he was only 8 months old.
However, if your child is a one or two year old, you might want to include some candy and crackers inside Easter eggs.

We were given the same sippy cup at a baby shower and it is Nathan's favorite! There is something about the rubber spill-proof top that makes it easy for him to drink. I guess I should start thinking about his Easter basket too…
I'm glad Nathan liked that sippy cup. So far Caleb hasn't figured out how to use the other two cups that we were given. He just chews on the tops like they are toys. 🙂 I'm hoping that this one will work. Have fun putting together Nathan's basket!
I loved shopping with my firstborn when he had no clue we were buying him presents. Now there's lots of hiding and sneaking around so Amazon has become my friend. Love your basket!
Thanks, Cat! I'll have to remember Amazon for buying gifts as my little guy gets older!
Stopping by from the link up 🙂
It's always fun to start these traditions early, even if the babies don't really understand. Such a fun and practical first Easter basket!
Thank you, Emily! I really enjoyed putting his basket together.
