Easter Basket Stuffers for the Young Artist
Who doesn’t love getting a bunch of goodies in their Easter Basket?
As parents we want to create that smile of joy on our children’s faces when they discover their filled Easter basket. But at the same time, we don’t want to hand them a ton of sugar. This list of ideas can help with that. Switch out some of the candy for some of these creative items for your little artist.
In this list, you’ll find items for young kids as well as things that are definitely meant for older artists. Some things will be fun for everyone!
You’ll see suggestions for things that are fun to play with immediately, and others that will make a great activity once all the fun of the egg hunt is over.
There are options for open-ended ideas as well as specific craft kits.

For the littlest artists…
I was going to add egg-shaped toddler crayons to this list, but these beeswax crayons are just so much better.
Mess-Free Options
For a mess-free artsy option, try Wikki Stix. They’re fun for all ages.
Stickers are also great for mess-free fun.
These can be opened and played with right away. Tuck the rest in your bag and take to Grandma’s house to keep little hands busy while waiting for Easter dinner.
Coloring Fun
For sewing fans
Open Ended Creativity
Some young artists don’t want any guidance. They just want to create freely. That’s where these open-ended materials come in.
For Kids Who Love to Paint
Got kids who like to paint? These paint sticks are tons of fun. Best part is that they’re washable.
For older kids, try a painting project like the mini-magnet tiles or the paint-your-own squishes. And diamond painting is a great alternative for older kids.
These are just a few of the many things you could use as Easter Basket stuffers for the young artist in your life. Let the creative juices flow and surprise that artsy kid with fun items that will bring them joy (not cavities).
