When it comes to baskets for older kids, the focus is less on candy, more on cool. Treats start taking the form of beauty products, accessories, and cool electronic gadgets. But those days of chocolate marshmallow eggs and rainbow Peeps aren’t completely behind parents of teens, of course. It’s just that older kids are less concerned with the sweet stuff, and they don’t care at all about little stuffed rabbits, colored bubbles, and sidewalk chalk anymore. (Did parents ever even think that would happen?) They don’t want a basket of jelly beans from the Easter Bunny — they don’t even believe in the Easter Bunny anymore — but that doesn’t mean they’ve outgrown the whole Easter ritual entirely. (Ah, the paradox of adolescence.) So with all of that in mind, we rounded up 35 things any tween or teen would love to find in their Easter basket. Moms and dads, try not steal all of this cool stuff, okay?
