Best Easter Basket Ideas For 10 Year Old Boy
1. Snacks
A boy can never have too many healthy snacks, or so it seems. Get his favorites.
2. Water Bottle
I love super useful gifts and nothing can be more useful than a water bottle.
Hydro Flask has a great selection.
If you want to go the extra mile, toss in some water bottle stickers.
3. Watch
If he is interested in a watch but you are looking for a cheap option, try this fitness tracker.
I can tell you first hand that it is comfortable to wear. It also charges easily by USB.
4. Crocs
Boys love Crocs, and I can see why – they are comfy and easy.
You know he will grow soon so size up on these to be ready.
5. T-Shirt
And I am sure he will be growing out of his t-shirts too. Get him a fun character shirt in a bigger size, while he still likes to wear them!
6. Swim Gear
Any of this swim gear will be a great addition to his Easter basket.
Swim Shorts (the ones with compression liners are the best)
7. Hat
Is it just me or does it seem boys can never have too many decent ball hats?
You can’t go wrong with his favorite sports team. Think men’s size here. He will grow into it.
8. Sunglasses
Another way to help block the sun is with a new set of sunglasses.
9. Books
Keep building his library with engaging books. My 3 boys are mega readers and love these series.
Wings of Fire (especially the graphic novel set)
Mad Libs – Ok, I know these are reading books but he is reading and being creatively silly at the same time. I still call it a reading win!
10. Classic Legos
A kiddo can never have too many classic Legos.
I am not talking about the kits here but instead, the loose bricks that can let his building imagination run wild.
Even though Lego kits are cool, once they are built they just seem to get pushed aside and sit.
11. Paper Airplane Book
12. Sports Cards
Every 10 year old boy I know (and older) is obsessed with sports cards.
You should get this binder if he doesn’t have one already so you don’t find cards all over your house.
13. Pokémon
Let’s talk about Pokémon for a minute. If your son is into it, do you understand at all what you are supposed to do with the cards? They have been in our house for a few years now and I am still not quite sure. But some boys love them!
14. Army Men
My son assures me that you can never have too many army men.
I mean, how else are you supposed to have an epic battle if you don’t have lots of guys? I get that!
15. Slinky
Ah, the slinky. The original fidget toy that keeps kids entertained for hours.
Your son will use this!
16. Shape Shifting Box
This is a cool little box that is so engaging. My nephew got it for Christmas and everyone had to have a turn with it.
18. STEM Robot
This little robot is so cool. It can be transformed into multiple different robots and can be solar-powered.
19. Flashlight
Yes, you heard me, a flashlight. If there is a flashlight around, boys will use it or play with it.
Try to find one in his favorite color.
20. Boogie Board
Boogie boards are the most amazing thing! They can be used to jot down notes, as scratch paper for homework, and to draw pictures.
The best part is that it is so light and slender that it is easy to take on the go.
21. Drawing Items
Does your son like to draw at all? Get him a sketchbook.
Add in a few mechanical pencils.
You can even add some stickers of something he loves.
My boys love these Super Mario stickers. They put stickers on first and then draw in scenes to go with it. So fun!
22. Games
Any of these games will keep your son busy for hours. You might even find yourself gravitating to them (I always do).
23. Board Games
Board games are great too! Play them together and I am pretty sure you will learn a lot about your son.
24. Video Games
Of course, there are always video games.
25. Science Experiment Kits
National Geographic has a line of science experiment kits and they are so engaging!
Honestly, I think we have done them all and my kids are still asking to do more. They are great for the summer!
28. Fox Tail Game
This classic 90’s outdoor game is always a hit with all ages.
My in-laws had an original and it just broke. So we gifted them a new one for Christmas and all the grandkids cheered (even the teens were excited about it).
29. Nerf Guns
Having a Nerf battle is a blast! And boys can always use another Nerf gun.
I have 3 boys so we have a wide variety of Nerf Guns but the ones they always reach for seem to be the 6 shooters. They are way easier to load when they are out of ammo.
30. Laser Tag
If you would rather not deal with all those Nerf darts, get this Laser Tag set.
OMG, it is a blast. Yes, my boys let me play sometimes. We even have 2 sets and they are compatible with each other.
They tell me it is the most fun to play outside at night😊.
31. Walkie Talkies
If you are going to go with walkie-talkies, which I highly recommend, go with these "man" walkie-talkies from Midland. They are so worth the money.
These also are a great addition to the laser tag game.
32. Sports Balls
It seems boys can never have enough sports balls, even if they don’t play competitive sports. They are a fantastic way to get him outside.
33. Binoculars
Help him explore nature up close and personal with these binoculars. Trust me, he will want to use them all the time.
34. Fishing Gear
If you are a fishing family like us, get him a few items for his tackle box. The following are great for freshwater fish.
