Here are some ideas to put in a teen boy’s Easter basket that will help you create the perfect teen boy Easter basket.
- Choose a theme for the basket – Choose a theme based on his interest. For example, if he is into sports, you can make him a sports theme basket. We have included some popular theme ideas below.

- Include gift card/s – You can include a gift card to their favorite store/s or something related to the theme you chose to do.
- Include only items you know they’ll use. – Do not add random trinkets that will end up in the trash. I used to do this to make the basket seem fuller, but it would end up in the trash by the next day. So now I try to be more intentional with the items I include in their baskets.
