Cute Baby Easter Ideas

Easter Outfits

• Although most parents might dress their baby in an outfit with pastel colors or an Easter-themed bodysuit, you could go all out and dress your baby up in an Easter bunny costume. Everyone will want to hold your little baby bunny, dressed in an adorable fuzzy suit and floppy bunny ears. If you want to be a little different, you could dress your little one up like a baby Easter chick or an Easter lamb as well. If you know your squirmy baby will not enjoy wearing a potentially hot costume, you could simplify things by just getting your baby a cute bunny ears hat, or a bib that says "Baby's First Easter."

Easter Baby Photos

• Take your baby for a professional Easter photo shoot, or set up one up yourself if you've got the photography skills. One idea is to set up a photo of your baby wearing a bunny hat and sitting in an Easter basket. Make sure you get a basket large enough to fit your little one. You could also find giant plastic Easter eggs and create a photo that looks like your baby just hatched from the Easter egg, ideal for a newborn photo shoot. For baby girls, you could put an oversized Easter hat on her head and a long pearl necklace around her neck for an old-fashioned style Easter photo.

Baby Easter Baskets

• Many families give gifts to children in their Easter baskets, filled with plenty of candy. While babies can't yet indulge in sweets, you can still make an Easter basket filled with Easter-themed baby-friendly items. You could include a stuffy baby bunny, a rubber ducky for bath time and plastic Easter eggs, too large to fit into your baby's mouth. You could also include soft books that your baby can look at and safely chew on if she feels like it.

Baby Easter Play

• While your baby is too young to understand the concept of an Easter egg hunt, she can still have fun with Easter eggs. If she can crawl or walk, you can place a few Easter eggs on the ground in front of her and encourage her to pick them up. You can put things like dried beans inside of few plastic Easter eggs, and put tape or glue around the opening to prevent your baby from being able to open it, then encourage her to shake them to hear the noise. You can let your infant "paint" hard-boiled Easter eggs by creating an edible pudding paint. Simply add a couple drops of organic food coloring into plain yogurt or vanilla pudding, then let your baby roll the eggs in the paint.
