Looking for meaningful Easter basket ideas that go beyond chocolate bunnies and plastic grass? We all know Easter is about more than the bunny, but if you’re building an Easter basket for your child, your students, or any kid you love, consider adding gifts that celebrate diversity.
These Easter basket stuffers promote disability inclusion and representation — making them great Easter gifts for all kids.
Whether your child has a disability or not, seeing diverse bodies, stories, and experiences helps build acceptance and empathy. The more comfortable we are with something, the less we focus on the differences and the more we begin to truly include. Of course, these Easter gift ideas are also great for connecting kids with gifts that represent like themselves.

They come in a variety of skin tones, hair colors, and career outfits—because kids with disabilities should see themselves as anything they want to be. You could build a whole Barbie-themed basket for your doll lover!
