A great way you can keep your children focused on Jesus this Easter Sunday is by filling their Easter baskets with Catholic toys and books!

Here are FIVE sample Easter Baskets for different ages–filled with beautiful Catholic products!

Girl Basket (age 5-8): With two books and two card games, this is the perfect basket for a little girl who will receive her First Communion soon! Little Nellie of Holy God will inspire their love for the Holy Eucharist and The Children’s Book of Angels includes a Send Your Angel to Mass prayer card!

Plus–any of our wildly popular Glory Story CDs are the perfect size for an Easter basket! Snag some of the discounted sets so you can put a saint story in each of your children’s baskets! Or get the entire Glory Stories Set (at a discount!) and give some now and some in Christmas stockings! Here is just one of the hundreds of 5-star reviews:

“We tried out the first two Glory Stories (Blessed Imelda and St. Juan Diego) while driving together in the van. We were thrilled with how well these stories were told and how much all of our kids (ages 8 down to 2) loved listening to them. They were constantly requesting to hear these saint stories. So we decided to make the investment and buy the entire set and we are so happy we did. The saints feel like they come alive during the audiobooks and our children are drawn to the saints and to their virtues. These have become some of my very favorite Catholic resources for my kids!”

Boys/Girls Basket (ages 10-13): Stocked by Therese’s special request, Who is Jesus? and Life of Jesus Set are engaging to any middle school reader! Complete the basket with the Works of Mercy Game and the Holy Heroes Playing Cards will provide hours of reading and playing entertainment!

Boy/Girl Basket (age 8-10): Tiny Saints and the variety of Prayer Pillowcases are always a great addition to any basket (regardless of age)! Start with the Holy Heroes Matching Game to warm up with matching Saints and Mysteries of the Rosary and work up to the Catholic Words Memory Match which helps kids recognize the vessels, objects and vestments used in the liturgy. 

Another great Catholic game for this age range is Catholic Name-It! Your children will learn the names and meanings of Catholic objects and gestures, awakening in them an appreciation for the wonder of our Catholic Faith in the joys all around us and especially in the church and at Holy Mass! One Mom said:

“My 2nd grader is preparing for his First Holy Communion. Part of his education is learning the items used during Mass. This game is PERFECT for him because he is a visual, fast-paced learner. He quickly moved from calling them by their descriptive names (cup, robe, cross), to their actual names.”

Toddler Basket: Small enough for tiny hands and beautifully illustrated, all of our Catholic board books can fit in an Easter basket. Mixed with candy and Easter eggs, the colors of So Many Ways to be Holy will bring the entire basket together.

Girl/Boy Basket (age 9-12): Clare’s Costly Cookie is a favorite of Lilly’s and there is no better story for teaching how to pray to Jesus as your best friend. Combined with the Works of Mercy Game (which is 4-games-in-1!) 

We have even more Easter Basket fillers that didn’t make it into these sample baskets! We have games, books, toys, pillowcases, and more to help your kids grow in their Catholic faith!
