As a follow-up to one of our most popular posts years ago, we’re sharing Easter basket ideas for teens and tweens you still have time to get. We are staring Easter in the face and perhaps, if you are anything like us, you haven’t done a thing yet.
The teen/tween years are strange when it comes to holidays. The magic has died a little from the young years of utter belief and excitement, but no one is ready to give up the traditions. So when it comes to Easter baskets, we’ve come to a place of giving a few little things to recognize the holiday but let go of making it a big deal with pressure on ourselves. A few small trinkets to celebrate the best gift ever (redemption) and the promise of spring. It’s a break after the winter and a step into hope.
But we’ve still got to get our acts together and get those trinkets!
Fortunately, there are still many items available on Amazon Prime that make great basket ideas.
Easter Basket Ideas for Teens and Tweens (You Still Have Time to Get)
Looking for Art Kits for Kids?
This was a stocking stuffer and has been a HUGE hit with everyone in our house. It is a great fidget toy but requires concentration. It’s fun.
Our kids did this younger-kids version years ago and it is such a treasure to have now.
This is usually where we end up: getting a book or two from the Easter bunny. Pick a favorite (graphic novels, books on art, fantasy novels). Don’t think too hard on it, but treating books as a gift is always beautiful

They may grow out of sitting and playing with LEGO for hours, making their own creations. But they never really outgrow LEGO completely.
Maverick is always cool.
Their shoes smell. Help them help everyone!
This is a fun portable game that we will play for just 15 – 20 minutes at a time while we wait for dinner to finish cooking or in between sports practice runs.
