Non Candy Easter Basket ideas

For kids of All ages

By Alyssa Knutti April 10, 2019

This year, I am hosting Easter. I have a niece and nephew who are 18 months and 2 years old. I have a 4 1/2 year old daughter and 6 1/2 year old son. I needed things for Easter baskets that would be age appropriate for each child. Since there is quite a range in ages, I am doing  non candy items.
