Putting together Easter baskets from scratch can be a real pain, especially if you're not of the crafty sort. Do you need a theme? Should it be all Easter candy, or should you mix it up a bit? What should you do for a child who doesn’t like candy or only eats, like, two things before playing Xbox all day? That's where premade Easter baskets come in.
Premade Easter baskets come in all sorts of themes that can fit your kid's interests, no matter what they're into or what age they are. Many are considered mixed baskets, including more than just candy, which is great for parents who don't want their kids on a full-day sugar high. Even though our children would be thrilled if we left them with copious amounts of sugar and called it a day, we’re fans of these assortments because variety means occupied kid brains and peaceful adult moments.
If you find yourself short on time or simply appreciate the convenience of a ready-to-go gift, these premade Easter baskets will make life easier by taking all of the work out of the holiday. They might even make the Easter Bunny jealous.

1For a Sticky Easter
A slime kit in the form of a gift basket that just happens to be in the colors of Easter? What could be better than that for your older kids or tweens? Especially ones who can't have the big, candy-filled basket or who don’t love chocolate. Recommended for kids aged 7 and up, this ice cream-themed slime kit has all you need to make multiple batches of goo in multiple colors, fun add-in scents, and more. Plus, it includes realistic-looking ice cream cones and non-edible extras like sprinkles and cherries.
2For Giving Them Plenty of Options
We love that this basket has both sweet and savory offerings — so many baskets are just one or the other, and not all kids are really into sweets. From goldfish and pretzels to cookies and classic candies, this basket has a little something for every craving, and it’s a really good value, considering that it’s overflowing with goodies. Wrapped in a box filled with that infuriating grass, it's a great prefilled Easter basket choice.
3For Their First Basket
This sweet premade Easter basket is just right for the littlest of babies, celebrating their very first Easter. A small basket filled with the softest plushes will delight your new baby on Easter morning. The basket comes with four plush toys, including an adorable bunny, as well as two soft eggs. Plus, the basket itself feels like a stuffed animal! Picture the cute photo opportunities with your baby beside the basket, holding one of the little chickens or eggs in their chubby baby fist: It's almost too adorable.

4For Sensory Fun
What a sensory delight this on-trend premade basket is. Although small in size, it’s full of pop-its, fidget toys, and sensory goodies. Perfect for when the Easter Bunny is ready to chill out. After all, the Easter Bunny has to go go go, but at the end of that? He probably just wants to relax, just like many kids on Easter after a busy day of egg-hunting and celebrating.
5For the Peeps Stan
Peeps are basically the official candy of Easter. And for the kid who devours them this time of year, there’s this wonderful themed premade Easter basket filled with not only the candy but Peeps-branded toys. Included in the gift are a paddle ball set, stickers, and even a Peeps chalk set, among other goodies.
6For a Toy-Basket Combo
For an Easter basket that your baby or young toddler won’t get bored with after five seconds, this bird-shaped toy is a great option. Not only is it ultra-colorful, but it also lights up and plays music. It comes with six different eggs and when the eggs are put into position inside the bird-shaped basket, each one has a song to play. The bird also makes silly noises when you press its beak.

7For Mermaid Fans
For kids who love mermaids and pretend play, this adorable basket features an assortment of dress-up items, activities, and treats. It comes with nail polish, nail gems, and an iridescent purple and blue hair scrunchie, plus a shell bubble wand and mermaid-themed sidewalk chalk. With a few classic candies like M&Ms and Smarties added to the mix, this basket is sure to keep any child happily occupied all Easter long.
8For the Kid (or Adult) Who Prefers Cookies
This basket includes six foil-wrapped chocolate eggs and a small bag of jelly beans, but the real stars are the dozen-plus snack-sized cookies. Cheryl's cookies are top-notch and always arrive super fresh. Plus, kids will love the sweet Easter Bunny basket.
Now, would we consider gifting this to our own children so that we could poach a soft sugar cookie? Maybe, but we can't be alone in that, right? It's the mom tax and it must be paid.
9For the Superhero Fan
Spiderman may not be the Easter Bunny but, for certain kids, nothing could be cooler than to receive this Spiderman gift bucket on Easter morning. It comes with a variety of activities emblazoned with the web-slinging action hero: a water bottle, an activity book, 50-piece puzzle, stickers, coloring pages, and more.

10For a Smaller Dose of Sugar
Easter baskets aren't always a huge deal for families. For teens and tweens, this candy-filled gift box is just enough of a treat without going overboard. It's also a great option for grandparents who like to give grandkids just a little something for the holiday. It includes a handful of sweets, including Easter classics like Peeps and Tootsie Pops.
11For Keeping It Bougie
We get it, you’re bougie. Your kids? They’re bougie. That’s why you’re getting the Jacques Torres Easter basket. It’s chock-full of high-end chocolate from the well-known New York-based French chocolate maker. You get milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel eggs, and even dark chocolate-covered Peeps, among other decadent delights in this basket. It’s Instagrammable. And, even better, it’s something your kids will show off on TikTok.
12For Keeping It Bougie on a Budget
If you’re bougie on a budget, allow us to introduce you to Lindt, the maker of this adorable basket that includes a mixture of milk chocolate, caramel, and truffle chocolates. The quality is excellent, the style screams “I’m fancy and I embrace that part of me,” and the price tag says “I'd have to choose between my family eating real eggs or Easter eggs if I go higher than this.”

13For the Soccer Player
As soccer moms, we can tell you that your soccer-loving kid will be all over this basket. It’s pretty special. It has one pair of socks, one “eat sleep soccer” bag, a pair of “I’d rather be playing soccer” stickers, a water bottle, a ball, a bracelet, and the basket itself. It’s a perfect gift for older kids who’ve matured past the Easter Bunny but still would secretly appreciate a gift.
14For Adding Fruit to the Mix
Clementines don’t seem like a natural fit for Easter, but when you combine them with tinfoil-wrapped chocolate eggs, fruit gummies and cinnamon caramel-flavored popcorn in an cute coiled rope bunny basket, it all comes together. This option is a great choice for families who don’t want a basket with a bunch of extra stuff, but don’t want a ton of candy, either.
15For a Little Bit (OK, A Lot) of Everything
This is a basket that will stun your kids with its sheer excessiveness. Billed the “Ultimate Easter Basket,” it has literally everything: plushes, chocolate, candy, popcorn, Peeps, jelly beans, and a giant, slightly ostentatious basket with more and more grass. Sure, it’s pricey, but there are enough candy to last weeks, if not months.

16For a Mix of the Classics
This basket is a bit more elaborate, with plenty of treat choices, a fun basket, and, yes, that blasted grass again. Unlike many other options on this list, this one includes a few throwback treats like Tropical Dots and jelly beans. Plus, it has classic Easter favorites, like Peeps marshmallows and a milk chocolate bunny.
17For a Sweet-Savory Mix
The milk chocolate bunny and green buttercream-frosted egg-shaped vanilla cookies are the stars of the show when it comes to this luxe Easter basket, but don't overlook the delicious Moose Munch from Harry & David. That stuff is borderline absurd in its goodness. If you're lucky, you can swipe a handful for yourself when your kid isn't looking.
18For Sticking to Good Old Candy
This premade Easter basket is a good “in-between” size option that any candy-loving kid would be happy to receive. Not too big and not too small, it comes complete with a plush toy, paper grass to litter all over your house, and an assortment of full-size chocolate bars and other sweets.
