Happy Easter! Celebrate baby's first Easter with a selection of cute and unique Easter baby gifts - straight from the Easter Bunny :-)
My tips are perfect for parents looking for a special gift for their little one, as well as for grandparents, relatives, godparents, and friends searching for a cute and practical newborn Easter gift.
When choosing a gift, always prioritize safety and opt for age-appropriate items that are free from small parts to ensure they are safe for newborns.
Fill an Easter basket with adorable board books, lift-the-flap books, or touch-and-feel books for baby. These special books will become a treasured tradition, bringing joy year after year as you read and explore them together each Easter.
For an extra sweet touch, add a cuddly bunny to the basket and plush Peter Rabbit paired with a matching board book makes a delightful gift set.
Some of my favorite classic Easter books for babies and toddlers include The Bunny Rabbit Show! by Sandra Boynton and Duck & Goose, Here Comes the Easter Bunny!: An Easter Book for Kids and Toddlers. (ad) Browse amazon for even more great picks!
The TOMY Hide & Squeak Eggs are a timeless classic! Designed for babies and toddlers aged 12 months and up, this engaging toy offers both fun and learning. Crack open the eggs to reveal colorful chicks that chirp when pressed, delighting little ones with every squeak.
The egg carton doubles as a shape-sorting game, as each egg has a uniquely shaped bottom that fits only in its designated spot—helping to develop fine motor skills and shape recognition.
Similar (ad) egg sorting toys from other brands also provide hours of educational entertainment, making them a fantastic Easter gift for curious little learners!
Easter poem for baby:
Hippity hop, the bunny's near, bringing joy and Easter cheer. With soft, sweet hugs and kisses, too, a basket full of love for you.

Dress your little one in an adorable Easter outfit to celebrate the season! From sweet onesies and bibs with "My 1st Easter" prints to cozy bunny-themed outfits and hats with floppy ears, there are plenty of festive options to choose from.
Brands like Mudpie, Carter’s, and Rare Editions offer charming Easter-themed clothing for both baby girls and baby boys. And don’t forget to snap a photo, baby’s first Easter outfit makes for a precious keepsake you'll cherish forever!
Too cute, have a look at this one which you can customize with the baby's name: (ad) My first Easter Pink Bunny Ears Bodysuit, for little girls, personalize with name.
A kids' wagon makes the perfect gift for Easter and springtime fun! It's also a fantastic shared gift from parents to their little ones or from grandparents to their grandkids.
Toddlers love exploring the outdoors, but walking long distances and carrying their treasures can be very tiring. Riding in a cozy wagon while being pulled along is so much more exciting!
Check out a variety of kids' wagons, including options for two or even three children, making outdoor adventures even more enjoyable for the whole family.
The all-time classic by Margret Wise Brown comes as a baby gift set together with a super-soft and machine washable bunny blanket. What a cute Easter gift set for babies and toddlers!
Alternatively, pair the board book with the Goodnight Moon Bunny Plush Snuggler or the adorable Goodnight Moon Bunny beanbag stuffed animal - both by Kids Preferred - for a cozy and charming gift set!
Peter Rabbit is back in style—and even made a recent return to the big screen! But let’s be honest, he’s always been a classic favorite.
What better character for Easter than Peter Rabbit and his adorable friends? He comes in all shapes and sizes for little ones, from a Peter Rabbit Comfort Blanket to charming baby books and dinnerware sets. The Peter Rabbit Easter Basket Playset is soft, huggable, and perfect for ages 1 and up.
Plus, you’ll find Peter Rabbit dish sets, including porcelain and practical 5-piece melamine options, featuring Peter and his friends for a sweet Easter mealtime tradition!
Diaper gifts are always practical, and with a little creativity, they can be an adorable Easter surprise! Create a large Easter gift basket filled with diapers, toys, and baby essentials, or opt for a smaller gift such as pairing a bunny plush with a diaper baby and a gift card, voucher, or cash for a thoughtful touch.
For this adorable Easter baby gift, you'll need just a few simple items: a soft plush toy (bunny, chick, or sheep for a festive touch), a diaper, a pair of baby socks, a burp cloth, and some cute decorations.
Follow the diaper baby instructions here to assemble it. Customize the colors to your liking. Either go with neutral tones for a unisex gift or opt for soft pink or blue for a more personalized touch for girls and boys.
A Baby Easter Gift Basket comes together in no time and makes a delightful eyecatcher: For the perfect Easter basket, I recommend fresh spring colors like yellow, light green, orange, pastel pink, and pastel blue.
Do's for your Easter gift basket: Start with an Easter-themed basket (or even a regular one with a cute cardboard Easter bunny attached) and fill it with thoughtful baby gifts like Easter baby books (check out my favorites above), baby bath essentials, shampoo & lotions, diapers, rattles, a cuddly bunny, lamb, or duck toy, along with wipes. Don't forget to dress up the basket lavishly with colorful ribbons for a festive touch and personalize the basket with the baby's name.
Don'ts for your Easter gift basket: Avoid adding chocolates, Easter eggs, or candies for a baby or toddler. Also, steer clear of Easter basket grass if the baby is old enough to unpack the basket on their own.
For extra charm, consider adding a Peter Rabbit toy, Peter Rabbit Finger Puppets, or a Bunnies By The Bay carrot rattle. You can find more great ideas and (ad) Easter baby toys and items here.
This Gund plush baby basket playset is absolutely adorable for Easter, and really any time of year. The set features a cute basket that holds various plush items, including a carrot, a bunny, an egg, and a little chick. Each item has its own unique feature: the bunny makes a fun hopping sound when you press its button, the carrot is made of crinkly material, the egg squeaks, and the chick has a little rattle inside. So many sensory elements for little ones to explore! While other manufacturers offer similar sets, Gund is always a reliable choice. This makes a perfect Easter gift for babies and toddlers.
Rabbits (bunnies), sheep, baby chickens, and ducks are classic Easter animals, so why not celebrate the season with a stuffed animal, cuddly friend, or even a cuddly rocker for baby?
Cuddly baby friends for Easter: The Baby Gund Thistle Bunny is incredibly soft and irresistibly cute. This 13-inch, machine-washable cuddly companion is perfect for babies, toddlers, and even older kids. You can also check out the Baby Gund Flora animated Plush Bunny for something a bit more interactive. Gund also offers adorable sheep, so a bunny and a sheep would make a lovely pair.
For a unique Easter gift, consider the Baby Gund fun lamb rocker, featuring a sturdy wooden base. This cute and gender-neutral rocker is a great choice for a baby's birth or a special Easter gift from parents or grandparents. It also makes a charming addition to any nursery.
A pull-toy duck is another excellent and affordable Easter gift. Look for options made from natural wood and non-toxic water-based paint, ensuring it's safe for little ones. Baby will enjoy pulling their new feathered friend around.
