Who says that the tradition of getting an Easter basket filled with sweet treats and gifts is just for the kids?! I don’t know about your husband, but mine has the same excitement level as a toddler on Christmas morning, so why not get him amped up about a surprise Easter basket, too?
But what can you put in a man’s Easter basket? After all, most of the Spring-themed goodies that you find at the stores are geared towards kids, and I doubt that your husband would want some egg-shaped sidewalk chalk or a jelly bean flavored Lip Smacker lip balm. Though some of these Easter Bunny money coupons could be fun!
Here are some Easter basket ideas for you husband and tips to make the best Easter gift for him:

Tips for Making the Perfect Easter Basket for Your Husband
Before we get into the ideas for what to put in an Easter basket for a man, here are some tips to remember as you’re planning for his Easter gift:
- Use something unexpected for your husband’s Easter basket. Chances are your husband doesn’t have a special basket in the attic that has his name embroidered on the front. So fill a reusable basket like a fishing tackle box, a car wash bucket, a grill caddy, or a new gym bag with goodies instead.
- Think about his hobbies. For instance, my husband loves to go fishing so I can get him a few small packs of those squishy fishing bait lures. If your man likes to golf, add a new pack of golf balls or a golf towel to his basket.
- Include some practical Easter gifts for your spouse. You put new underwear or socks in your husband’s Christmas stocking, right? So why not tuck a few practical gifts like after-shave lotion or new boxers in his Easter basket also!
- Avoid seasonal items that will only get used once a year. Instead of an carrot-print tie or Easter egg socks, go with pastel colors that can be used all year.
- Tie a funny Easter gift tag on his basket. Use a funny Easter gift tag like these free printable Easter tags I made recently! Just print the tags, cut them out, and attach to the handle of his Easter basket (or tackle box!).
Bonus Easter Idea for Him
If you blow your Easter budget on your kids’ Easter baskets and egg fillers, then rather than completely leaving your husband out of the festivities, opt for a smaller gift instead.
Just give him his favorite candy or salty snack, but make it more special with a cute printable gift tag! This Dove dark chocolate Easter bunny is about $5:
Or, a bag of Reese’s pieces in a cute carrot-shaped bag with a funny Easter gift tag is also a great idea. Hide this small Easter gift for him in his lunch box or gym bag for a fun way to say “I carrot ’bout you so much”!

I hope you’ve gotten some good ideas for what to put in a man’s Easter basket so that you can make him feel loved on Easter morning! Is there anything that you give your husband for Easter each year, or what basket fillers have been the most successful for you?
