Catholic Candy Free Easter Baskets

This post contains affiliate or associate links with several businesses (which means if you shop through the links, I earn a small commission). As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

I have some wonderful news – there are so many options for your child and teen’s Easter baskets that nurture faith and are totally trendy!

Here are some suggestions for your child/tween and teen’s Easter Baskets!

Men and Boys

You were not made for COMFORT you were made for GREATNESS mens tee shirt

Be Yourself: a Journal for Catholic Boys

Be Yourself: a Journal for Catholic Boys offers engaging and excellent guidance for a young boy to explore and build his relationship with Jesus. There is no other journal out there like this for boys – definitely get one for your sons and nephews ages 9 and up!

Saint Michael the Archangel Socks 

or Frassati Socks

WWI Replica Battle Beads Rosary

For Babies and Toddlers

Chews Life!

We have one ChewsLife Rosary and my twin toddlers both want to hold it when our family is praying the Rosary together. The company has so many different colors to choose from – blue, green, rainbow – these will look so great in an Easter Basket!  I think we are going to have to get another!  I also highly recommend the necklace for Mama’s (great addition to a baby shower gift!) I went through a couple Miraculous Medal necklaces with the past 2 years – babies LOVE to pull on and chew necklaces.

ChewsLife even sells Toddler bracelets!  I am so excited to put one in my daughter’s Easter basket and purchase one for my friend’s daughter too!

Shining Light Dolls

I am loving the Saint Gianna doll – saint and physician 🙂 . But Shining Light Dolls has expanded their inventory to include SO MUCH MORE THAN DOLLS!  Faith and fine motor skills cross paths in so many of their fun products!

The water reveal cards are great for Easter Baskets, as well as all the different dolls – the classic, the plushies and now – a Blessed Virgin Mary Rag Doll too!

Plus, I highly recommend Shining Light Dolls’ wooden toys too!

Happy Easter Coloring Book!

I am so excited to color these Easter Egg pages with my daughter!

Toddler, Pre-school and Young Catholics

Saintly Heart has an incredible selection of toys and games for babies, toddlers and pre-school aged children!

The Saintly Heart Tattoos are perfect for inside plastic Easter eggs (and my 5 year old LOVES tattoos – I think this will be the second year she gets these!!)

But Saintly Heart also has fine motor skill toys based on the Catholic Faith and wooden blocks that are also a huge hit in our house!

Definitely check out:

The Easter Play Set

The Bath Toys!!! (Saint Florian, patron of Firefighters and Saint Francis themes!!)

The Fatima Lacing Set

The Brother Francis Mass Set

and more!

For Teens and Tweens

Pink Salt Riot has an Easter box for Tweens!!!

The Easter Box for Tweens is a great gift this year because

  1. It is BRAND NEW!  Just debuted in 2023
  2. It is filled with springy things that delight her sense of style and turn her attention back to Christ’s glorious Resurrection – without a cheesy sentiment in sight.
  3. It’s already done for you!

Be who God meant you to be, and you will set the world on fire!” Those words are at the heart of Be Yourself! A Journal for Catholic Girls, which is designed to help girls explore their identity and purpose in life in light of the wisdom of the Catholic Church, including half a dozen female saints.Packed with gorgeous, full-color line art, quizzes, journaling questions, and inspirational quotes from the Catechism and Scripture, the Be Yourself! journal leads girls to discover that they are beautifully and wonderfully made…and that they have a unique, God-given mission and purpose in the world. Recommended for ages 9 and up.

The latest review of the Be Yourself Journal, found on PrayerWineChocolate’s website is from Doug and Grace Johnson.  (Grace is the 12 year old daughter of Doug and Abby Johnson):

Part of the 5 Star Review states:

Grace would even tell you that it’s easy to get caught up in this journal. She’ll plan on spending 5 minutes working in it and before she knows it, an hour has passed by. She enjoys reflecting parts she has already read or worked on as well as exploring new parts of the book. Again, just a great tool for catechizing and connecting young girls to their faith.

I am also loving the Frassati socks for girls – I think it’s the pastel colors that just say Easter and Spring to me!

For Women

Prayer Wine Chocolate Apparel and Wine Tumblers!

The Light Gray Prayer Wine Chocolate Hooded Sweatshirt is perfect for a cool day on the beach!

I love mine – a soft, classic piece and with a convenient pouch pocket that definitely comes in handy!

Catholic Stickers

There are a growing number of “Catholic Stickers” being produced (which makes me so happy – I had a sticker book growing up)!

Some of the places you can purchase Catholic Stickers are:

Etsy (click here to see lots of Catholic stickers)

    Although there are so many wonderful items which I would buy in a heart beat if I could, I checked them out. For a Canadian, even if you take into account the exchange in currency the shipping will make it impossible. The men’s t-shirt although $14 and change is $34 and change to ship. The journals are so beautiful but shipping is only $4 less that the journal itself. My best bet is to send the newsletter to my sister, who lives in the States and have her get them and bring them with her when she comes to visit.

If you’re looking for advice… let me introduce you If you’re looking for advice… let me introduce you to Mother, I mean Saint, Teresa of Calcutta…

#wisewords #CatholicSaints #catholiccoloringpages #MotherTeresa #saintquotes
Mother Teresa gives the BEST advice! Smile at one Mother Teresa gives the BEST advice!

Smile at one another!!!

Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.

Give yourself fully to God! He will use you to accomplish great things!

GO HOME AND LOVE YOUR FAMILY 

What advice from Mother Teresa is your favorite? What advice would you add from Saint Teresa of Calcutta?

This Rosary is available from @dellamadonnarosaries ; quite a few quotes are in the book Be Yourself: a Journal for Catholic Girls

Cabbage.Patch. Diary. What I had v. what I needed… Cabbage.Patch. Diary. What I had v. what I needed…
When I discovered this in my basement, my daughter grabbed it and ran off… I still have some speed left in me. “Secrets” recovered 😅.

Writing in a diary or a journal is much different than writing and sharing on social media… especially for kids and teens. Dr. Leonard Sax (author of The Collapse of Parenting) shares in his talks how writing in a diary or journal is living… but writing and posting is performing.

The young need the space to write out of the public eye.

Also… remember the Cabbage Patch Kids 😂!?

Hi, I’m Amy and I am so grateful that our Lord walks with us in suffering and in the beauty of everyday life. Let’s pour a glass of wine and pray the Rosary together!

“Pray, hope and don’t worry!”
Saint Padre Pio

If you are planning to visit the @padrepioinc in B If you are planning to visit the @padrepioinc in Barto, PA, I highly recommend you add on a stop at @the_peppermint_stick !
We needed a low cost, fun one-day out with our family, and this was great!
 
The Padre Pio museum and the shrine grounds are a great place to pray and learn more about this anything but boring Saint!
And I have to say we all had a blast looking at the nostalgic candy, ordering our ice cream and playing pinball at The Peppermint Stick!

Padre Pio, pray for us!!!

In 2016 I listened to Father Pio Mandato recount t In 2016 I listened to Father Pio Mandato recount this story and I couldn’t help but laugh 😂.

Father Pio Mandato was able to visit Padre Pio a few times as a boy with his Grandfather. He remembered how Padre Pio in the presence of some Capuchins and laymen, Padre Pio enjoyed the fellowship and he loved to tell jokes and make his friends laugh.

What a joy to know that those in heaven have a sense of humor!

Saint Padre Pio, pray for us!

#Catholic #PadrePio #holysmokes #holyhumor #funny
When I was growing up my friend used to invite me When I was growing up my friend used to invite me to go to “fellowship” with her at their church. That was not a word or idea I was familiar with… 

Later I was taught that faith is a gift… but I didn’t truly understand that until it was faith that was keeping me hanging on…
Having friends to share prayer intentions with and who will not only pray with you but laugh and become your community is priceless,
5 Stars: Highly recommend!

Let us pray together for our priests! In the name Let us pray together for our priests! In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Saint Teresa of Avila is credited with this quote: “Behind each priest, there is a demon fighting for his fall. If we have the language to criticize them, we must have twice as much to pray for them”.

The parish I have been attending for over 20 years has always been blessed either such wonderful priests. I am so grateful, and if I’m being honest, quite sad to see this one go on to another assignment.

Let us fervently pray for all Catholic priests… for they truly help us know and love Jesus Christ more.

God bless Father Windle … and @irishclan7 we loved the ice cream truck at his farewell. Our twins had actually made up a song they would sing on pancake breakfast days… perhaps one day I’ll convince them to sing it for you or for Father Windle 😉 

If you’ve read this far, comment the name of a priest you are praying for!
