Are you looking for Easter basket ideas with a health theme? Instead of a basket only full of candy, use this opportunity to give your kids some fun items that also encourage healthy living!
Easter can symbolize spring, fresh starts, and discovery. For my own kids, I’ve enjoyed filling a basket for Easter morning, full of things the kids would enjoy outdoors and cultivate hobbies that encourage them to be healthier. These 8 Easter basket ideas are my favorite health themed baskets that we’ve given over the years.
Sports Themed Easter basket

You can customize the basket for your child’s favorite sport. If your kids are into more than one sport – include a variety of items for different sports. Here are some ideas to include:
- New Ball (baseball, basketball, soccerball)
- New Water Bottle
- Hair Tie
- Socks
- Baseball hat/ glove
- Sports collectors cards
- Sunglasses
- Stop Watch/FitBit
- Trail Mix
Outdoor Themed Easter Basket
Spring is officially here, and the kids love some inexpensive things to play with outdoors. You can find so many of these things at the dollar store, or your regular big box store. Our kids have loved making all sorts of pictures on the driveway with sidewalk chalk, that it has occupied them for hours!
- Sidewalk chalk
- Jump Rope
- Knee pads, elbow pads
- Squirt Guns
- Kite
- Frisbeee
- Sand toys
- Sunhat
- New Swimsuit
- Beach Towel

Hiking Themed Easter basket
Our family has done a lot of hiking over the years, and it’s definitely more fun when the kids have some of their own supplies! A hiking basket will get them excited for your next outing! Even a mini camelbak of their own makes the journey a little more enjoyable.
Gardening Themed Easter basket
It’s time to start a garden, so what better way to get your kids excited than to have a basket of their own gardening supplies. Even if you start with a small sprouting kit in the window sill, or you have a full garden in your yard, they can be involved and learn vital gardening skills for life!

Cooking Themed Easter Basket
There is no shortage of basket ideas for a child who likes to bake or spend time in the kitchen! I love this idea as an opportunity to get kids excited about cooking healthy food and to expand their skills into making more food than toast!

6) Spiritual Themed Easter Basket
A Christian themed basket is not only a GREAT idea for a holiday like Easter (of course!) but it also helps to reinforce your families spiritual journey. Use the basket as a chance to share your faith and items that represent your faith with your kids and to talk about the meaning of the season.
- A journal with a new pen
- Pictures of Christ
- Inspirational Books
- Scripture pens/ stickers for marking scriptures
- Inspirational Music
- Religious based jewelry
- Fill plastic eggs with scripture quotes

Summer Themed Easter Basket
With summer just around the corner, get your kids set up for your first visit to the beach! If you won’t be making it to the beach anytime soon, you can still use sand toys in a sand box, and sunglasses, towels, and sandals at the local pool.

Healthy Food Themed Easter Basket
And lastly, a basket full of healthy snacks is actually really fun for my kids. We don’t buy a lot of “fun food”,and these snacks are considered fun for them. Truthfully, this is what my kids are going to get this year, because the next day we’re headed on a flight,and they are going to want some snacks to bring in their carry on!

And that’s it! Other themed baskets that we didn’t include in other non-healthy ideas would include an arts and crafts basket, a spa basket, hot wheels theme, Lego theme, Disney theme, sewing theme, books/reading theme, fishing theme, and tools-handyman theme. What other ideas can you think of?
