Easter is just a few short weeks away. Have you started planning baskets yet? I’m the kind of mom that likes to include all kinds of stuff in my kids’ baskets. I’m not a fan of having all candy or all toys, like I said, I like to add in a little bit of everything.

One thing that I began adding since my oldest child was about 3 is a book. I always like to encourage their love of reading and a new fun book is a way to do that. I do like to stick to an Easter theme though, well, just because. If you want to add books into your Easter tradition, here are some great Easter books to include in your kids’ basket this year. 

Easter Books to Include in Your Kids’ Basket This Year

Some of these are board books, there’s even a coloring book in there, but all of these are fun Easter books for your kiddos to receive as part of their Easter basket goodie stash this year.

Even if you decide to not include them into each of your kids’ baskets, why not order one or two to read to them as Easter approaches? I know that my kids always loved reading when we read books that related to the closest holiday. If your kiddos are excited for Easter, reading them a cute, fun Easter book is a way to celebrate that excitement.
