No matter how old your kids are growing, they’ll never outgrow the love of getting fun surprises on Easter morning. But when they reach tween and teen status, it gets more difficult to fill their baskets with things they’ll really like and use. There are a lot of things they’re “too old” for, but that doesn’t mean they should have to miss out on the Easter morning fun, whether they believe in the Bunny or not.
These Easter basket stuffers for tweens and teens strike a perfect balance: they’ll appeal to your big kid’s playful side, but they’re not appallingly babyish. From the squeezy simplicity of an old-fashioned egg full of Silly Putty, to a delicious DIY cookie decorating kit, to the pick you can never go wrong with — a gift card — we’ve put together a roundup of stuff that your tween or teen will actually be glad to find in their Easter basket.
Holler and Glow Easter Bath Bombs
This adorable chick (with a jazzy pink lemonade scent!) isn’t the only skin-softening bath bomb that Holler and Glow has released just in time for Easter — there’s also a bubblegum scented bunny and a chocolate scented egg!
Easter Straw Toppers
Easter-fy their Stanley with these cute Easter toppers to keep their straw germ-free. Made of food-grade silicone, they’re compatible with other similarly-sized straws too.
Portable Charger
If you’ve got a kid with a phone, you know that they’re always running low on battery (or stealing your charger!). Keep them powered up — and reachable on the go! — with this portable charger. It comes in five different colors and is compatible with a variety of phones. Tablets too!
Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty
You might find yourself stealing this one when your kid’s not using it — because Crazy Aaron’s thinking putty is oddly fun to squeeze, stretch, and pop, no matter how old you are.
Travel Scent Atomizer
This TikTok-viral product is a must-have for any teen in their perfume or cologne era. With these pocket-sized refillable atomizers, they can re-up their signature scent during the day (which means they won’t have to bathe in it before they leave the house). It comes in five different colors, or there’s a sleek black option.
Egg Toss
An Amazon bestseller that’s fun for any age (from toddler on up!), Egg Toss is a hilarious game where you try to toss the egg as gently as possible — its sensors can detect whether it’s being coddled or manhandled. Handle it too roughly and it will “crack!”
Sunglasses
Now that your kid is finally old enough not to lose or break stuff — and to care about how they look! — sunglasses make a perfect Easter basket stuffer for tweens and teens. How about a pastel pair like these bestselling polarized glasses? If pastel isn’t their vibe, there are nearly 30 other color options to choose from!
Magnetic Fidget Rings
These magnetic fidget rings are the hand occupier your kid didn’t know they needed — buyers describe them as “twisty, turny, ‘sticky’, spinny and clacky.”
Gel Pens
These quick-drying gel pens have black ink, so they’re perfect for using at school — but their gradient pastel exteriors make them perfect for Easter as well!
‘Chocolate’ Bunny Easter Popper Toy
This “chocolate” bunny may not be quite the kind your kid expects to get in their Easter basket … but it’s delightfully different! It comes with six foam balls that pop out of — well, you know — and can launch up to 20 feet!
Sudoku Puzzles (3 Difficulty Levels)
If your kid could use a social media break (who couldn’t, really?!), gift them a sudoku book that will keep them occupied — and thinking. There are three levels of difficulty, so whether they’re a sudoku novice or a pro, there’s something for everyone.
LEGO 3-in-1 White Rabbit Building Set
If your kid has been a lifelong LEGO lover, they’ll adore this kit especially for bigger kids (or adults!). It’s a white rabbit for Easter — that can also be built into a cockatoo or a white seal!
Paint-Your-Own Squishy Kit
Tweens and teens can bust stress by squeezing a squishy — and this colorful kit allows them to paint their own! With superior squishability, this cute little bunny will let their creativity shine.
HP Sprocket Portable 2×3 Color Instant Photo Printer Bundle
Admittedly, this one’s a little pricier than your average Easter basket stuffer — but if you’re really looking to “wow” your tween or teen, look no further than this portable instant photo printer. Available in multiple colors, it uses ZINK zero-ink technology so there’s no ink to replace — ever. Your kid can print 2×3 photos on paper that can be used like a sticker. They can even jazz it up with embellishments via the app for a personal touch. This bundle comes with the printer, a pack of paper, and a deluxe case.

Quip Sonic Toothbrush
Older kids are more likely to appreciate a practical gift than little ones might be — and besides, using a cool toothbrush like this sonic brush from Quip as an Easter basket stuffer is the perfect “brush your teeth” nudge. It’s even got a built-in timer so that your kid will know exactly how long they’re supposed to be brushing, and it comes in different colors.
Wish Bracelet (2-Pack)
This two-pack of bracelets with teeny-tiny bunny charms is the perfect, understated way to remind your tween or teen that they’re loved — by wearing it on their wrist.
TOSY Flying Disc
This flying disc, with a stunning display of 16 million color variations that lasts up to 90 minutes per charge, is a perfect Easter basket stuffer for tweens and teens — but it’s fun for all ages.

Amazon ‘Reveal’ Gift Card
Everybody knows the most-requested gift by older kids: gift cards, so they can pick exactly what they want! These cute Easter-themed gift cards from Amazon are affixed inside a “reveal” card, so it’s a little fancier than just handing them a plain gift card and calling it good. There are no fees, no expiration date, and is available in amounts from $15 – $2000.

Squishmallows are super-popular, even among older kids — and the limited-edition Easter Squishmallows are coveted (and cute!) collectibles. The Easter 2024 collection includes several cute limited-edition choices, like this Buttons the Bunny plush.
