With Easter just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about those adorable Easter baskets for our little ones. But if you’re like me and trying to steer clear of the chocolate overload, you’re in the right place! Today, I’m sharing some Easter basket ideas tailored specifically for 3-year-olds, packed with age-appropriate goodies that will have them hopping with joy.

With colouring sheets, activity sheets, pencils, stickers, and a stamp, this should keep my 3 year old occupied for a while!
Isabelle is desperate for her own ‘coffee cup’ so I thought this would be ideal for her. It’s lightweight plastic so shouldn’t break too easily (I hope!), with the added bonus of her being able to design it herself.
Egg shaped things are a hit in this house, and chalks seem to be loved by all toddlers so I figured these would be a hit. Plus they’re in the colours of the rainbow so that makes them even more perfect.
Easter Play Dough Pack:
I haven’t met a toddler who doesn’t love play dough! This homemade play dough is non toxic, soft and squidgy, and comes with cute little Easter accessories for some imaginative play.
These come in spring themed shapes – bunny, Easter egg, flower, and butterfly. I got these for use with the play dough pack for extra fun.
We get through so many bubbles it’s ridiculous. Isabelle has loved bubbles for as long as I can remember so these are in the basket ready for the weather warming up soon.
Perfect for sowing around Easter time, I’ve added some sunflower seeds to our Easter Basket so that we can watch them grow over the next few months
These cute little shaker eggs are great because they let Isabelle make, music with them, but they’re quite soft-sounding, meaning they don’t drive me mad if they’re used all day!
Egg shaped colourful crayons, perfectly shaped for little toddler hands to hold. What more could they want?
Peter Rabbit – The Great Easter Egg Hunt
Our Easter Basket wouldn’t be complete without something Peter Rabbit themed. This is a lift-the-flap book so that toddlers can get involved with Peter’s hunt for the Easter eggs.
