Easter is less than a month away which means moms everywhere are searching for Easter ideas to make this year’s celebration as good as, or better, than last year’s. So, in that spirit, I’m going to up my game from last year when I shared my list of Non-Candy Easter Basket Fillers and this year I’m going to make it a printable shopping list.

Easter Basket Filler Ideas

I’ve broken all the lists down by age groups to make it easier to find age-appropriate items. I have a tween teen list for those of you who, like me, have older kids but also younger children who still believe in the Easter bunny.

    • Hi Shirley, thanks for stopping by. One of my favorite gifts when I was first married was an Easter care package from a friend. It was completely unexpected and so thoughtful. I’m sure your kids appreciated theirs even after they were grown.

  12. Corinne, you’ve just made my Easter shopping so-ooo much easier (and more organized). So helpful that you separated the ideas out by age group.

  13. I really love these Easter Basket Shopping lists. So nice to be able to print them and then head off to the store and manage to get every thing in one stop. I usually make more than one trip since I am not as organized as this!

    • Cynthia, I usually make more than one trip for the candy since it somehow mysteriously gets eaten before it’s time to fill the baskets even though I’m the only one who knows where it is. ๐Ÿ™‚
