Easter basket craft ideas for kids

Easter baskets are such fun to make!

The best thing about them is that you can make a basket out of almost anything – milk bottles, tissue boxes, paper cups, you name it. If it’s a container of some sort all you need to do is add a handle and ta-da – you now have a basket to take on your next egg hunt or fill with treats for somebody special. 

These adorable recycled paper roll baskets were one of the very first crafts we shared here on The Craft Train. How cute is three-year-old Miss K (now 11!) with one of the baskets we made together?

    I’m basically a big kid who never grew up and still loves to muck around with paint, glitter, glue and toilet rolls. With the crafts shared here on this website I’m hoping to give other parents and carers inspiration to get crafty with their kids at home – make our projects, or use them as a source of inspiration to spark ideas of your own. When it comes to crafting no rules apply!
