Easter Basket Ideas For Tweens and Teens -No They’re NOT Too Big

Easy Easter Basket Ideas for Teens and TWeens

Inside:They may be growing up, but they still want to be a part of holidays. Easter Basket ideas for tweens and teens

When your home has an big age span of kiddos, everything requires a tad more thought.

Whether it’s a family vacation, game night, or celebrating a holiday, what flies for my 4 year old isn’t exactly great for my teen. Plus as our kids get older, even though they may act like they are “too cool” for these fun family celebrations they really do still want to be included.

However, coming up with Easter basket ideas for tweens and teens isn’t as easy as it is for younger children.

Easter Basket Stuffers For Teens and Tweens

My 4, 7, & 9 year olds are getting an assortment of goodies from our post on Non-Candy Easter Basket Fillers. When it came to my 13 year old daughter, it took a little more thought on my part.  While I knew it was unlikely she would want to go hunting for Easter eggs (although you never know with tweens and young teens), I wanted to make sure she still could participate and knew that we wanted her to be a part of everything.

Sometimes because our olders don’t always have the same level of enthusiasm or gratitude as our littles, we may be inclined to just let traditions go with them. But now more than ever keeping them connected to the family and family celebrations is important.

I’ll confess I think finding stuff for my girl was easier than for a boy, but once I got started, I was on a roll. I managed to come up with many more ideas than I would have thought possible for both genders and I’m pretty sure they’re going to be pleased with how hip this Easter Bunny can be when it comes to filling their baskets. Hoppy Hunting!!

Hoppy hunting!

EOS Organic Lip Balm– These are fun to collect and they seem to be the constant companion of girls everywhere. My daughter & her friends are on a quest to possess them all, which is okay I guess, but they’re no Kissing Koolers!(Yes, I had quite the collection of those in high school)

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes 25 Count (3 Pack)Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes 25 Count (3 Pack)Spongeables Pedi-Scrub Foot Buffer, Pedi Perfect Deep Exfoliation for Feet, Lavender Tea Tree Oil, Therapeutic Aromatherapy Foot Exfoliating Sponge with Heel Buffer & Pedicure Oil, 2 oz. SpongeSpongeables Pedi-Scrub Foot Buffer, Pedi Perfect Deep Exfoliation for Feet, Lavender Tea Tree Oil, Therapeutic Aromatherapy Foot Exfoliating Sponge with Heel Buffer & Pedicure Oil, 2 oz. Sponge


Simple Cleansing Wipes– These are awesome to toss in your backpack and refresh with post PE, a sports game, or a sweaty bus ride. No one wants to feel sticky and smelly so my daughter winds up passing these around and all the girls love them.


Spongeables Pedi-Scrub Foot Buffer– You may recognize these from our Favorite Things post, I confess I introduced my daughter to these and she’s a total addict now, too! Perfect to give a quick pick me up for your feet while you’re in the shower at a fraction of the cost of a salon visit!

Organix Rejuvenating Cherry Blossom Ginseng Shampoo & Conditioner (13 fl. oz.)Organix Rejuvenating Cherry Blossom Ginseng Shampoo & Conditioner (13 fl. oz.)Luxspire 2 Pack Microfiber Hair Drying Towels, Fast Drying Hair Cap, Long Hair Wrap Turban, Bath Shower Head Towel with Buttons, Super Water-absorbent, Blue & Rose RedLuxspire 2 Pack Microfiber Hair Drying Towels, Fast Drying Hair Cap, Long Hair Wrap Turban, Bath Shower Head Towel with Buttons, Super Water-absorbent, Blue & Rose RedHipsy Women's Adjustable No Slip Bling Glitter Skinny Cute Headband Gift Packs (Skinny Brown/L. Pink/Navy/Rose Gold/Gunmetal 5pk)Hipsy Women’s Adjustable No Slip Bling Glitter Skinny Cute Headband Gift Packs (Skinny Brown/L. Pink/Navy/Rose Gold/Gunmetal 5pk)

Organix Shampoo & Conditioner– This smells so amazing and my teen daughter loves it! It may cost a bit more than the kid’s hair products she’s used up until now but still not the price of fancy salon brands. Great item to teach her about great haircare and hygiene. Bonus: the bathroom will smell amazing, too!

Hair Drying Towel– Handy accessory, especially if your have a tween/teen with long hair. This highly rated towel draws moisture away from the hair, helping it to dry faster. Comes in a two pack, great gift to split or keep one for yourself!

No Slip Skinny Glitter Headbands– Every girl needs a little bling in her life and it never hurts if it serves a function as well. These fashionable no-slip headbands are understated enough to wear to dance class or a team practice, but can also add a little glam to a nice top and jeans for a night out with friends.

Creative and Artsy

Erasable Markers– These are vibrant and AHHHHH-MAAAAAAZING! Crisp, colorful and you can erase them?!?!? Perfect for taking notes, doodling, or coloring, these are a sure hit with this age group!

Mini-Journals – Inspire her creativity, whether she loves to write, doodle or draw these little journals can tuck into her school bag or purse. Pair them with the markers or the colored pencils for an artsy Easter set.

Colored Pencils – A step above the crayola colored pencils from Kindergarten. If you’ve got a girl that loves to draw or enjoys taking a break with an adult coloring book these are a more grown-up version of those old school supply ones with brighter colors and smoother finishes.

Whimsical and On Trend

Emoji Pillows– Cute accessory and might replace that stuffed bunny you used to give, these pillows are fun to have for when guests visit or to use when lounging around in their bedroom, texting with friends.

Stranger Things Charm Bracelet-It’s the hot new show all the kids are watching. Who wouldn’t want a bracelet full of fun charms to represent all the different quirky parts of this oh so strange cult favorite. It will certainly be a conversation piece.

Funky Socks– tweens and teens love to express their personality from head to toe and when it comes to their toes, funky socks to cover them are super on trend. And who can resist donuts and unicorns all in one fashionable statement.

Books

Graceful (For Young Women): Letting Go of Your Try-Hard LifeGraceful (For Young Women): Letting Go of Your Try-Hard LifeEverything, EverythingEverything, EverythingA Wrinkle in Time Movie Tie-In Edition (A Wrinkle in Time Quintet)A Wrinkle in Time Movie Tie-In Edition (A Wrinkle in Time Quintet)


Graceful (For Young Women): Letting Go of Your Try-Hard Life– I’ve heard so many lovely things about this book that it’s going in her basket this year. I love the theme of letting go of the illusion of perfection and embracing the young woman God created you to be. There’s a version for grown-ups as well, would be a fantastic Mother/Daughter book club!

Everything Everything – Another best selling YA book that recently made its way to the screen. A powerfully emotional book that speaks to the loneliness and isolation that is common among tweens and teens, but with a love story woven in that rivals The Fault in Our Stars.

A Wrinkle in Time – With the release of the movie and the hype of it’s all star cast, this is a great time to encourage your daughter to read the book that started it all. A classic that has endured for generations with a strong female lead character who isn’t perfect, but is still destined for great things.

Easter Basket Ideas for Teens and Tweens – BOYS

I went ahead and dug a round a bit (translation: offered the tween/teen boys of my sister and friends candy in exchange for their thoughts, no judging, ladies!) and rounded up some ideas for the boys as well!

Personal Care

Dude Wipes – Sometimes teen boys smell aren’t the best at keeping up with personal hygiene…at least until they become interested in girls. The wipes are great to toss in the sports bag for a quick refresher on the car ride home. If you’ve ever driven a carload of post sports boys anywhere, you get why these are needed.

Gorilla Snot Gel – Another recommendation from the 15 year old nephews. They’ve discovered girls and care about their hair these days and swear by this gel. I think they just like saying “Gorilla Snot”.

Manly Many Soap – They may or may not be excited about this but let’s face it, it’s a necessity. This just always smells CLEAN and perhaps the novelty of soap in a tin will be more fun than the bar form…it’s worth a try!

Tech

Headphones– These Sony ones are inexpensive and fine to use around the house. Seriously, my kids have trouble keeping track of their lunchbox much less a several hundred dollar pair of headphones. If someone should happen to “hide” their headphones under the bathroom sink and then a pipe leaks all over them, there are less tears over these than $300 ones…just sayin’.

BlueTooth Mouse – A mouse he can take on the go for work at school, the library or a friend’s house. Sometimes those built in trackpads and such can be a real pain to use or aren’t great for gaming.  Here’s a hip alternative.

Bluetooth Waterproof Speaker– Whether he likes singing in the shower or playing some tunes by the pool, this bluetooth speaker provides pretty amazing sound for it’s size and price. Plus, it keeps his phone away from a potential dunking.

Nike Mens Elite Basketball Crew Socks– My 3 tween/teen nephews tell me these are “the thing” where they live. Boys always seem to have some kind of fascination with specific socks. They’re totally fine with dressing questionably as long as they have the right socks… You know what your guy is into, buy him more socks, you know he looses them habitually in the locker room.

Cinch Sack– Whether he’s heading to the gym or a sleepover, this sack holds everything to keep your guy organized out of the house. My son uses these for travel, school, and other miscellaneous activities. Choose his favorite color or sport’s team colors, tons of options available.

Charcoal Shoe Deodorizers – Let’s be real here, there is nothing that stinks much worse than boys sweaty shoes. I’ve tried everything from stuffing them with newspaper, to spraying them down with lysol, but these charcoal deodorizers work better than anything. Just slip them in as soon as he takes them off and no more locker room smell taking over your car or house.

Books


Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations– This book is for boys or girls but it was written by 2 young men so I stuck it under guys for this post. This is an amazing book, written by teens encouraging their generation to rebel against the low expectations society has for them. This is a revolution you want your kids participating in, trust me!

The Guys Guide to God, Girls and The Phone In Your Pocket -combining spiritual and practical advice with humor—a winning combination for teen boys trying to navigate the ups and downs of real-life situations with confidence and wisdom.

Boy 21-A story of challenges, love for a game and the power of friendship to help people overcome even the most difficult obstacles. A top 10 fiction book for young adults.

    For girls this year I think the faith illustrated type stuff is pretty popular for for Christions and the “adult” coloring books are cool too.
    Maybe a journal, stationary, colored pens and pencils.

    I’m so glad to see your recommendation for “Do Hard Things”. We are friends with one of the young men who wrote this book, and his wife. It’s an excellent read for young people-boys and girls!

    This is a perfect post. And it doesn’t just apply to tweens and teens. These items could be great in a care package to a college student! I sure wouldn’t mind it! Thanks for sharing.

    I have a tween too and I thought I would just skip the Easter basket this year because she may not be interested in the usual kiddie fare, but after seeing your post I’m changing my mind! Now I definitely know what her Easter basket will be like thanks to your ideas! 🙂

Ever wonder what to say when your child is feeling Ever wonder what to say when your child is feeling left out?  A few years ago, I watched from my park bench as a young mother tried to console her sobbing daughter. “I’m sorry, honey. I don’t blame you for being upset.”  “I don’t know why they won’t let me be in their group for the talent show. They just said they already had enough people and their routine was done and there wasn’t anything they could do about it. I told them I would make a new one up, but they wouldn’t do it.”  I tried to focus on my kindle while occasionally looking for my kids to exit the school door. But as much as I tried not to eavesdrop, I had to admit I was interested to hear how the mom would handle this all-too-common situation of a child feeling left out.  “Well, they’re probably just jealous of you honey, because you are such a good gymnast and they aren’t. They probably don’t want you in their group because you’ll show them up,” the mom stated matter-of-factly. “You should do a solo routine. Or maybe one with Chloe.”  “You think?” the girl replied, her tears slowing down. “You think they’re just jealous of my tumbling?”  “Totally.”  Several minutes passed before my girls came out, but the interaction between the mother and daughter stuck with me for a lot longer.  Maybe the girls were jealous, or maybe they honestly had their routine finished.  To continue reading check the link in bio.
