Gifts for Your Easter Baskets

While the truest gift of Easter cannot fit in a basket, I always look forward to a few carefully chosen items to bless our children with Easter Sunday morn. This year I am completely excited about the stunning coloring books I’ve linked in this post. In fact, I’ve already ordered two for our home! Additionally, below are some wonderful books that speak of spring and joy and hope. It is my desire that you either find a few items of your own here or inspiration for items to add to your baskets as you create memories this Easter Season. 

Let me add, the weeks leading up to Easter find our family reading through a pile of books, many of which are listed in this post: Twelve Books to Celebrate Easter With Your Family.  The memories that we build around these books, yearly traditions, and the gospel message are ones I hope will last long after gifts in Easter baskets are forgotten and all the chocolate eggs gobbled away. 

All ages:


 

 

Two of our kids share a room, which makes reading after bedtime a bit of a challenge. These little book lights are an easy solution. One is on its way to my door to pop in a basket of our own. 


Little Boy and Girl:

Elementary to Middle Grade Boys and Girls:

Spring is in full bloom. What about some resources to explore creation?

Handicrafts:


Missionary biographies and some favorite books for spring:


What are some of your Easter basket essentials?

Five Easter Books for Your Preschooler

One of the ways we prepare for Easter in our home is through Christ centered literature. While we love the signs and symbols of spring in the beautiful flowers and precious animals that are God’s gift to man within creation, we like to keep the central message the new life in Christ.

Christ laid down His life so that we could take up new life in Him.

The book links below are targeted for preschool through second grade learners. Perhaps you would like to check these out at your local library or purchase them at your favorite bookstore. Happy Easter and may your celebration be rooted in Him.
