Temporary Hair Color

We always support creativity and individualism, so these temporary hair color wax in all kinds of different shades are a fun and easy way she can change things up a little bit!

Colorful Fun Pens

We love a good pen! Does it start young? We think it might. So these colorful pens will be a great way to start or add to her collection of pens, pencils, and stickers for her journals. If you want more pens or craft supplies, check out our scrapbook & journal storefront!

Hairbrush

The quest to find the perfect hairbrush is a long and bumpy one. Try this one for all hair types and see if it is the magical grail for your girl’s hair type.

Animal Face Masks

These are perfect small gifts for an Easter basket! Completely adorable little face masks she will think are fun to use on Easter morning for her Easter egg hunts and beyond.

Stress Unicorns

This is a great idea because we could all use a little stress relieving unicorn in our life! Tuck these in among the Easter eggs for her to use all year long.

Book Light

A little light is a perfect way to encourage reading (even past her bedtime. Shhhh)

 

Spa Headbands

These are perfect to wear when you are washing your face to keep your hair from getting wet. They are also great to put on if she is starting with skin care or make up. Great for older kids as well as younger ones.

Stackable Rings

These tiny little rings are exactly what she hopes to find in her Easter basket! Stackable and in different sizes so she can customize her look.

Phone Holder

A perfect phone holder for a nightstand, gaming table, or a place to put it up while you are having dinner. This one is bendable and really has a lot of variety. It is one of the great, modern, Easter basket ideas for girls as well as boys!

Books

We always love to recommend books! There are several Easter books that are focused on this specific holiday that would be a great Easter gift. For other book recommendations, we love The Girl who Looked Beyond the Stars by Sheena Meyer. It is a series, this is book one of seven! You also can’t go wrong with the Middle School Series by James Patterson. If you want to discover more books, check out our Slowprose section of the blog and our book storefront!

Gaming Headset

If your kid likes to game, a headset will be a bit hit and a gift she will love. The thing about headsets is that having more than one is a good thing! They can be finicky, or sometimes you just have to swap it up for comfort reasons. If she doesn’t need another headset but you want to get something gaming related, you can also look at this headset stand, keyboard and mouse, or a live stream planner .

Socks

Socks are an all time classic Easter basket stuffer, and even though they act like they hate them, kids love to get those socks! These ones are cozy and cute.

Unicorn Rocket Launcher

How awesome is this. A Unicorn Launcher! They will love sending these flying, and then you can have them gather them all up to do it again. Entertainment and exercise all at once. Plus Unicorns!

Fidget Keyboard

We saw this nifty little fidget gadget and had to put it on this list. There is something so satisfying about clicking those mechanical keyboards! Add this to their backpack for a fidget toy to keep their hands busy while they are listening at school.

Taco vs Burrito Card Game

You can’t beat a great card game! This looks hilarious and takes only 15 minutes to play. A perfect time span to keep them occupied but not too long where they would get bored of it. A fun activity with friends or the whole family.

Bike Horn

She will think this is just a super fun gift to add to her bike. You will know that it can also help keep her safer when she is out cruising the neighborhood. Win Win!

Light Up Tracing Pad

When making this list, we like to include activities that they can do all by themselves. This little tracer is something fun that she will be able to use and give mom or dad a break for a little while.

Glow In The Dark Capture the Flag

Capture the Flag is alway a fun game and a great gift, and this glow in the dark version will level it up!

Fast Push Game

This is the hottest little gadget toy this year. Like an updated version of the Simon Says game, with a great addition of a little more fidget activity built in. Plus look at that cute lil owl!

Punching Bag

This is a little on the bigger side, in terms of Easter basket fillers, but this is such a great idea for burning off energy or getting her up and active. Especially if the weather hasn’t warmed up that much yet!

Crystal Flower Growing Kit

We love STEM gifts for little girls, and this one is so fun and cute she won’t even realize she is doing science!

Mad Libs Book

Mad Libs are activity books that serve as great relaxation tools if you want her to disconnect from electronics before bed. They are fun little bordom busters that foster creativity, imagination and writing, all while having fun.

Flashlight

Flashlights are not only great gifts but just fun in general (not to mention handy!) and these are just super fun with their colors. Perfect gift from the Easter bunny!

Roll On Perfumes

Fragrance is a great idea and something that she may be more and more interested in as she gets older. These roll on scents have several scent profiles so she can start to figure out her favorites! They are an inexpensive great option that will have her smelling great and feeling great.

Remote Control Racer

A remote control car is so fun to play with, and this one comes with the added bonus that it turns into a transformer! This is a gift you know that they will be playing with as soon as Easter brunch is over.
