An Easy Space-Themed Easter Basket for Toddlers 3-4 Years

I still can’t believe that Auggie will be 4 years old in 2 months! Like seriously, where has the time gone? It feels like yesterday that he was celebrating his first Easter. Lately, he’s been super into outer space, the solar system and learning about planets so I wanted to make him a space-themed Easter basket this year.

Most of the items are from Target, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble and as usual, links are affiliate links so I make a small commission if you purchase using my links! Keep in mind that there is never any pressure to buy things, so if you’re looking to downsize or reuse old toys, check out my post last year on how to create an Easter basket using old toys.

What’s in Auggie’s Easter Basket this year?

• Cuddle & Kind Oliver the Bear doll
• Sunglasses
• Crayons
• Boogie Board
• Goumi Kids loungewear, use code 15AUGGIE on Goumi Kids for 15% off
• 3D glow-in-the-dark planets
• Space explorer floor puzzle
• Astronaut and rocket pop-its

Space-Themed Book Recommendations

You know it wouldn’t be a gift basket from me without any books! Here are two new STEM books that I got Auggie for his space-themed Easter basket:

• Peppa in Space
• Are You A Scientist?

I obviously have to include some actual Easter books too so I opted for activity-related books! I also got him a potty-training book since we’re still potty training him:

• Every Bunny Poops
• Color Me Happy! Orange
• My Easter Basket – A Colorful egg hunt

These next few books are already in Auggie’s library collection and I want to mention them too:

• Hello World! Solar System
• Nerdy Babies Space
• Pete The Cat: Out of This World
• The Pop-Up Guide: Space

All of the books in this blog post can be found on Amazon, although I purchased them at Barnes and Noble since we have a membership.

Other space-themed Easter gift ideas

All of these are honestly great Amazon finds!

• LEGO DUPLO Town Space Shuttle System
• Magnetic puzzles play scene
• Projector flashlight
• Solar system puzzle toy
• Space rocket bubble machine
• Space rocket shaped bathtub toy
