Easter is quickly approaching and part of the fun of Easter is hunting for your Easter Basket full of sugary snacks!
I always try to incorporate some Easter basket items thats are non-candy however, so here is a list of Easter Basket ideas that are non candy but still make a great basket!
Here are 30 + Easter Basket ideas for you to stuff those Easter Baskets with this year!
1. Crayons–I don’t know about you but I can never have enough crayons in the house. Someone is always looking for “just” the perfect color and we can never find it. Crayson are always a great addition to our baskets.
2. Coloring books–My older kids love to draw freehand but my 3 year old still loves a nice coloring book–especially one that is Mickey Mouse or Frozen themed!
3. Easter Themed books like The Easter Story
4. Stuffed Animals–my kids can never have enough stuffed animals and they are always a favorite in the basket. Plus there are lots of great Spring and Easter themed ones that are small and fit in the basket.
5. Sidewalk Chalk–hopefully the weather gets warm enough soon and we can head out with our new chalk and color the sidewalks to our hearts content!
6. Bubbles--even if the weather isn’t super warm on Easter you can still head out and blow bubbles. Always a fun thing to do!
7. Jump Ropes–again, anything that can be used outside is always a hit!
8. Zhu Zhu Pets 
9. Bathing suits–last years suit is probably too small or worn out and the new suits are in the stores. Great time to stock up and look ahead to warmer weather!
10. Swim googles
11. Pool toys
12. DVD’s such as Frozen
13. Video Games–my son loves when he gets a new video game in his Easter Basket, my kids have really been loving the new Disney INFINITY: Marvel Super Heroes 
14. iTunes Gift Card
15. Spring Pajamas–it is time to break free from the winter pajamas and get some new Spring ones.
16. Stickers/Sticker Books
17. Flip Flops–I stock up every Spring on some good quality flip flops and some cheap flip flops that I don’t care if they get wet or get ruined.
18. Crazy Socks
19. Outside Toys–now is a great time to update the outdoor toys and this makes great gifts for younger kids as well as older kids.
21. Kites–we take kites with us on our beach vacation every year and this is something that our kids look forward to getting in their baskets. It means summer is coming!
22. Play Dough
23. toothbrushes–I know, I know but what better time to update your kids toothbrush then on a sugar high day?
24. Super Soaker Switch Shot Blaster Water Gun
25. Hot Wheels Cars–these fit nicely in larger eggs and can be incorporated into your Easter Egg hunts.
26. Nail polish-now is the time to update to new Spring Colors–perfect for your Tweens and Teens.
27. Jamberry Nail Shields–Jamberry is great for both adults and kids as they are non-toxic and can be cut to any size.
28. Craft Supplies
29. Sunglasses
30. Reward Slips for things like later bedtime, movie date
31. Insect Lore Live Butterfly Garden
32. Small LEGO Sets

I spent a few Easters as a teen on a restricted diet. I could only have dairy fats (cheese, butter, cream), so no chocolate. I could only have whole wheat, so no refined flour for treats. And I had to limit my intake of sugar so much that I even had to be careful eating fruit!
My mom still put together beautiful Easter baskets for me that included a few gourmet sugar-free candies, but were mostly non-food items. This was more than 10 years ago, so the only thing that sticks out to me now is the beautiful decorative Van Gogh tea pot she picked out for me.

Love these ideas, Megan!
I bought a Snoopy clock for my 11 year old son who loves all things Snoopy. I’m hoping to find a few more Snoopy items for his basket.
Great list! We don’t put candy in my daughter’s Easter basket so this gives me a new array of ideas for this year!
Thanks for sharing on the Shine Blog Hop!
Love these ideas! I’m taking this list to the store with me!
