63 fantastic Easter egg fillers {things to put in Easter eggs besides candy}

In today’s post: Find 63 fantastic ideas for Easter egg fillers besides candy! Lots of fun + clever ideas kids will love.

I like chocolate as much as the next girl (probably quite a bit more than the next girl actually), but my kids end up with SO MUCH CANDY these days! I can’t believe how much they get at school. I mean, it’s nearly Easter, and they still have candy left from Valentine’s Day. So I thought it would be a good idea to find some non-candy Easter egg fillers, so we can still have the fun of an Easter egg hunt without even more sugar (and yes, they’ll definitely get some candy too!). Read on for 63 ideas of things to put in Easter eggs that aren’t candy.

63 Easter egg fillers that aren't candy! Lots of ideas for what to put in Easter eggs besides candy.

Please note: I’ve linked all the items straight to Amazon to make it easy for you to order anything you’re interested in, but also check the dollar store and your local big box stores since some items may be available there in smaller quantities. I’ve done my best to ensure all these items will fit in a plastic Easter egg, although you’ll see that some are marked (large egg) meaning you’ll need bigger than normal eggs for those items. Please note that not all items are suitable for very young children, so use your best judgement. Links are affiliate links. Thanks!

    I like the puzzle pieces. How bout putting in grape tomatoes, grapes, raisins, dimes, pennies, love notes, seed pack, bird seed, stuff that’s not plastic…

    Thank you for this! My 4 yr old daughter goes to a small preschool, and we figured out that chocolate and food dyes make her hyper. Trying to stay away from those things is a losing battle between all the candy laden holiday parties and birthdays. Last year I put those pull back cars in her eggs for the school party, but was having trouble coming up with something for this year. Great list, thanks again!

    Wow – awesome list! My son is too small for a lot of this stuff yet, but I thought you got a great mix with stuff that would fit for a range of kids. I mean, who doesn’t like silly putty and wind up bugs? 😉 I’ll admit, it also brought back a lot of childhood memories – how we loved those siren whistles!

    One other fun option for kids who are reading could be hints to finding a bigger gift (I got a bike one year, but even just for a book or anything that won’t fit in an egg, but that you can hide it, could be fun.)
