I don't care how old you are, everyone deserves an Easter basket—feel free to send this to your mom as a friendly (and not-so-subtle!) reminder!

Whether you're hunting for spring gifts for your own wish list or building a basket for your kids, niece and nephew, siblings, or bestie, good news: We've found the absolute cutest picks (that aren't just candy!) to help you accomplish the task. 

Of course, you'll need the basket as a base, and then thoughtful, sweet, and actually practical things to fill it with. Think: celeb-loved undereye patches, lip balm, waterproof playing cards, a classic beach read (that's literally called Beach Read), and even a few Easter-themed prezzies to add a little charm. The floral bunny Jellycat is my fave!   

Keep scrolling to shop our favorite gifts to fill an Easter basket—starting at just $6.

First things first: you'll need an Easter basket to hold all the prezzies. It doesn't get much cuter (or on theme) than this bunny-inspired wicker design with a removable cover. 

OUAI St. Barts Hair and Body Mist

This OUAI hair and body mist is a game-changer, especially for travel season. The luxe, tropical-scented spray will transport you to the beaches of St. Barts with notes of dragon fruit, orange blossom, tuberose, and musk.
