March 12, 2025 · DIY Crafts and Projects

I love Easter! I have small children and they are starting to get excited with Easter ! They are 4 and 2 and get more and more excited about the holiday every year!

Easter Basket Ideas for Toddlers

I was able to find this beautiful soft bunny basket at Home Sense! Such a pretty basket with green gingham ear liners. I still may personalize the ears with my boys’ names! We will see!

Easter baskets are so fun to make! They can vary so much with the types of items you can include. Great ideas for toddlers are:

  • bubbles
  • playdough
  • bunny stuffy
  • plastic eggs with candies inside
  • chocolate easter bunny
  • coloring books
  • crayons

Personalized Easter Baskets

These baskets are adorable burlap baskets I personalized for some customers. I used glitter heat transfer vinyl for these baskets and it is so easy to do!

Personalized Easter baskets are also very fun! These particular Easter baskets I personalized myself with my Cricut machine and you can too!

Honestly with personalizing baskets you will want to take into account what the basket is made of in order to decide what kind of heat transfer vinyl you will use for the project.

The baskets below were made of a strong cotton blend so I felt comfortable to either use the regular heat transfer vinyl or glitter heat transfer vinyl would also work in this case.

You may have to do some trial and error with your baskets with the vinyl you end up choosing. I used my Cricut Easy Press 2 to press the HTV onto the baskets at a low temperature and for less than 30 seconds. You may have to press for longer depending on your basket material.

Baby’s First Easter Basket

I definitely wanted to make a Baby’s First Easter Basket for my son when he was born! It is such a special way to commemorate the holiday!

I chose a cute basket and personalized it with some blue HTV with my Cricut machine! Such a quick and easy project and makes a special keepsake for baby too!

Baby’s First Easter Outfits

My oldest son was born in March and so was a pretty little guy when his First Easter came around! As you can see he is only a few months old.

I made his cute onesie with my Cricut machine and some light blue and black HTV. I found the SVG on a free SVG site called http://www.lovesvg.com if you are on the look out for something similar!

Baby’s First Easter Bunny

As Baby’s First Easter is a special holiday, I wanted to make sure I made him a Baby’s First Easter Bunny. I personalized these myself! Its so easy to do with your Cricut machine! I also opted for white glitter HTV for this project as it kind of sparkles and also holds up very well with stuffed animals in my experience.

Peter Rabbit Easter Basket

My oldest son had Peter Rabbit as a theme for just about everything for him in his first year! That absolutely included his Easter baskets!

The first basket pictured is the Pottery Barn Peter Rabbit Easter basket! It is just so adorable. The ears are wired and you can adjust as you wish. The basket is actually just the liner. The liner can be personalized with a name embroidered on. I chose to do this and found an inexpensive basket at Walmart for the liner.

The second basket is the Peter Rabbit plush Easter basket. I found this one at my local Walmart! My son loved this one so much he packed it around the house all of the time!

It is so much fun digging in to the Easter baskets! So much fun hunting for the easter eggs and eating all that chocolate!
