When littles are little, Easter Baskets are simple. I have a ton of ideas listed from past years here that will give you a lot to consider when filling baskets for little littles. As our littles evolve into tweens and teens, the Easter Baskets must evolve with them if we want to keep them excited about traditions. Here are some of the items that I will be adding or that I considered adding to JustaBXgirl’s Tween Queen Easter Basket. There’s a lot of talk about tweens growing up too fast but I regularly spend time around 10 – 14 year old littles who still enjoy playing while age appropriately walking towards teen/young adult life. Remember, littles learn what they live. If you tell them that they’re too old for something then don’t get mad at them when they no longer express interest in that thing.
XOX Kweenies – Usually we fight over who these belong to but these will be just for her collection. Are you Team Quirky or Team Fearless? I can never choose because I want them all. These are a fun way for the generation that grew up collecting Shopkins and Hatchimals to continue collecting.
Moriah Elizabeth Easter Mystery Plush – Yup, you read that right. Moriah Elizabeth Mystery Plushes have an Easter Series!!!!! Sound the alarm and get them NOW. There are six to collect in this series. We will be unboxing these soon over on Instagram so make sure that you’re following me!
Skip It – Everything old becomes new again. Skip It is back and better than ever. Adding this to your tween’s basket will have you bonding over who can do it better. Quality time is something we need to cherish and orchestrate wherever we can. This gets them moving and us reminiscing.
Avenella Lip Gloss – When I say my lip gloss is popping, I mean it. Avenella is our new favorite gloss. The products and packaging are all natural and when you support the business you are supporting a family. The dad and daughter duo took their time to create a product that is safe and appropriate for littles but moms can use and love too! I’ll be adding the vanilla to JustaBXgirl’s basket because originally she kept the Rose for dance performances and I kept the vanilla for myself but she loves it too.
Cheers to the Governor – We discovered the game making family at Toy Fair and when I tell you that I’m obessed! First off, they were the sweetest and kindest guys. They listened to me ramble on about my love of gameschooling and sent us on our way with all types of games to play and share with our homeschool group. This won’t be in JustaBXgirl’s Easter Basket because it is already in her Homeschool Game Squad bag. It’s a hilarious game to watch and play. There’s a good chance you will see this in an upcming Family Game Night post.
Sparklee Axolotl – JustaBXgirl was so sad that the one she got at Toy Fair disappeared from her chair at a different event we went to. I was disappointed that day as well but we hope that whoever “found” the non-lost item is loving it as much as she did. I’m hoping finding a replacement in her Tween Queen Easter Basket will make her smile. It is so squishy and stretchy I think I might need to order my own!
Moriah Elizabeth Mystery Figure Color Splash Series Two – These are so freaking cute. These friends are perfect to bring on adventures. They’re small enough to fit in a pocket or toss into a bag. They can sit on a desk and keep your little company. They can sit on a collector’s shelf. There are eight to collect. These are also great for an Easter Hunt.
Lite Brite Touch Mini – This is wonderful for tweens that need to fidget. Unlike the traditional Lite-Brite this one doesn’t take the same amount of focus. This one can be tossed in a bag for quick travel fun. You can create and animate or simply play games with it.
