15 Easy, Last Minute Easter Egg Fillers

April 12, 2019 by Shellie Wilson

Easter is unpredictable.

Let’s put it this way: No one planned for little Susie to eat the chocolates before you could fill the eggs. No one even thought about looking for the egg casings before you sat down to fill them. No one remembered to put the bag of chocolates in the fridge. And let’s face it: not all kids like chocolate – plus, it isn’t ‘healthy’.

Anyway, here are 15 easy, relatively cheap last minute Easter Egg fillers that are unique. Put on your Super Mom or Dad or Grandparent or Friend or… Person mask, because we are about to make Easter AMAZING.

  1. Lego Figurines

These things are fun! You can find them in your kids’ old lego piles, or you can grab a pack of 12 here.

2. Slap Bands

Often a hit (Get it? Get it?) with all ages, you can find slap bands at your local discount store, or grab a pack of 20 here.

3. Disney Trading Pins

If you’ve ever been to the Disney parks, you’ll most probably know about the Trading Pins. They aren’t cheap, but kids love them! You can get them at any Disney Park, or here.

4. Plastic Crystals

These little knickknacks will leave kids happy! They’re often quite cheap as well. You can get them at any discount store, or get a pack of 190 here.

5. Bouncy Balls

Never failing to lose their charm, bouncy balls will leave kids busy! They come in cool designs and are relatively cheap… Grab them at any discount store, or get a pack of 24 here.

6. Mini Squishies

These little things are all the craze – as I’m told. Fun to play with, you can get a pack of 30 here.

7. Key Chains

No matter the age, kiddies always fall for the key chains. Snag a bunch in any discount store, or get some sneaker-style key chains in a pack of 12 here.

8. Ooshies

These cute things come in many designs. They’re a bit like a pencil topper in the shape of a person… Kids do love them though… The only downside to these is that you have to unwrap them if you don’t buy them bulk. Get a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pack of 7 here.

9. Finger Puppets, these are especially cute for toddlers and little ones.

10.  Pencil Toppers, these Easter themed pencil toppers are small enough to fit in the eggs and are fun to collect in different designs too.

11. Playdough, Make some homemade playdough, wrap in clingfilm and add to an egg.

12. Gem stones, kids of all ages like to collect Gemstones and these gemstones come in a mixed pack and are loads of fun, just like finding treasure.

13. Mini Slinky, Who would have thought these would have made such a comeback.

14. Stickers are always fun especially if they are scratch and sniff stickers.

15.  These mini wind up toys are a hoot and a giggle and come in a whole range of designs.
