Whether you’re doing an outdoor Easter egg hunt with loads of family, an indoor egg hunt with a smaller crew or a virtual egg hunt entirely online, one thing is for certain: When it’s done, you need cap it off with a fun basket. If you’re looking to put together some boys’ Easter baskets, these ideas are sure to please, loading it up the basket with all his favorite things. Some are seasonal treats, with all of the bunnies, chicks and eggs you associate with Easter. Others are toys that are just for fun, little pick-me-ups that are perfectly sized to fit in a plastic egg. Of course, no boy’s Easter basket idea would be complete without a couple of sweet treats, so we threw in a couple of those, too. (Bunny farts, anyone?) Mix and match according to your family’s tastes, add a few Reese’s eggs, and you have yourself an Easter basket that any little guy will flip for.
Still looking for more ideas? If you’re overwhelmed with the idea of finding the perfect basket fillers for your family, take a look at these pre-made Easter baskets. They’re just as sweet. If it’s not enough, you can fill it out with some basket stuffers and you’re good to go.
