Baseball Easter Baskets
Easter is right around the corner! Even if your kids no longer ‘believe’ in the Easter Bunny, the tradition of getting a basket on Easter morning is a hard one to give up. Everyone, young and old, loves getting an Easter basket. For the baseball lovers in your household, pull together some Baseball Easter Baskets.
Start with a basic basket, then add in some sweet and salty snacks. Finally, finish it off with some fun baseball themed extras. Here are some fun Baseball Easter Basket ideas that I’ve used when building Baseball Easter Baskets for my own kids!

Sweets and Snacks
My kids aren’t really into candy, but they love gum. I honestly don’t understand the appeal, but they love getting Big League Chew – 5 Flavor Variety Pack in their baskets.
Prime Hydration continues to be very popular with sports kids right now. It’s also a little pricey but can be a fun addition to a Baseball Themed Easter Basket. A twelve pack of their favorite flavor is sure to be a big hit on Easter morning! For a convenient and space saving option, consider giving a bag of these Prime Hydration sticks which can be thrown in their bat bag, then added to your baseball players’ water whenever they want.
My kids are always thrilled to find new flavors of sunflower seeds. The David Sunflower Seeds 14 Flavor Variety Pack has some new flavors that they’ve never tried (Dill Pickle?) and will be a sure fire hit on Easter morning.
A baseball themed Easter basket just wouldn’t be complete without a box (or three!) of Cracker Jack.
If you’re looking for a nut-free alternative to Cracker Jack, Popcornopolis 12 Cone Variety Pack is nut free and offers fun flavors like Caramel and Kettle Corn. Plus the bags are cute and look great in a basket.
Basket Surprises
Out of all the surprises in your kids’ Easter basket, why not give them something that will last them for years to come, while gifting them a lasting reminder of the reason for Easter? Elite Athletic Gear makes jewelry for athletes, like this Stainless Steel Cross Pendant with Chain Necklace . Made to withstand the sweat, dirt and physical stresses that athletes will put these chains through, this tarnish resistant chain and cross will look great for years to come.

Baseball Cards are an Easter Basket staple in our house. This 2024 Topps pack has 67 cards and includes an autograph or relic card.
Sof Soles Baseball Sneaker Balls are a highly rated deodorizer for stinky shoes, making these a funny Easter basket addition for the kid with smelly cleats.
Rawlings Youth Baseball Sunglasses are highly rated, comfortable, and affordable. For a younger baseball player who may not be ready for an expensive pair of Oakleys, these are a great addition to a basket. My younger baseball player wore them for years before he grew out of them!
