Baby’s First Easter Basket

We are so excited planning for the arrival of little girl #3 this summer!

With Easter on the way, it got me thinking about what would be perfect for a baby’s first Easter basket.

I wanted our basket to be useful – filled with things that moms and babies really need. 

I also wanted our baby Easter basket to be just as cute as the baskets the older girls receive.

A quick trip to our local craft store turned up adorable see-through bunny eggs that could easily be filled with little goodies like socks. They also had carrot-shaped eggs and eggs shaped like chicks. It was so hard to decide, but we went with a bunny theme for our basket!

Update: Great Day Houston invited us to show their audience how we made our Baby’s First Easter Basket, along with more non-candy Easter baskets for kids, like our Book Lover’s Easter Basket. Click here to watch the segment!

First, we layered the bottom of our baby Easter basket with a pack of wipes and rolled-up receiving blankets until the space was completely filled.

Next, we covered our surprise supplies on the bottom of the basket with another receiving blanket. I wanted to avoid the traditional “grass” basket fillers that could be dangerous for babies.

What to put in a baby's Easter basket

We found cute see-through eggs at our local craft store that we filled with things like pajamas, caps, and onesies.

Bunny-shaped eggs were filled with socks – which you can never have to many of with a new baby! (They’re always losing socks!)

Finally, we tucked shoes, Easter-themed baby books and other little things in any open space left in our infant Easter basket.

So simple, but so useful!

Our baby Easter basket used a regular-sized basket, and we were able to fit quite a bit of baby clothing and supplies inside.

If you purchased a jumbo-sized Easter basket, you could include even more baby gear: perhaps more wipes, diapers, and memory books or keepsake craft kits!

What else would you include in a baby’s first Easter basket? Let us know your ideas in the comments below!
