35 Best Easter Gifts for Babies Celebrating Their First Easter

Bath toys usually have an ocean theme, but you can give the bath a springy, barn-like feel with these toys, which float in bath water. Each one squirts water, which encourages kids to practice their fine motor skills, and you can also use them to teach animal sounds. Ages 9 months+

The Velcro on these Easter rattles means you can clip attach them to a stroller, car seat or play gym for a quick seasonal refresh. Or, you can put them on a baby's wrist or ankle to encourage movement. Either way, they'll learn cause and effect when they experiment with the rattling sounds. Ages 0+

It's what all the best-dressed babies are wearing this Easter — festive bibs. This one comes in a pack of three, so it's okay if drool, spit-up and Easter cake mishaps happen. hey also come in Aden + Anais's signature soft muslin.

If life's too hectic to curate your own basket (you're caring for a baby, after all), opt for this pre-made Easter basket. Their already-put-together assortment comes with a carrot toy, an egg, and more. Ages 0+

These "tobbles" look like cracked eggs, and each one is uniquely weighted. They stack, nest within each other and spin — perfect for babies' first building, toppling and sorting explorations. Ages 6 months+

An Easter egg will only surprise a baby for a day, whereas this box will keep them entertained over and over. It's stuffed with "tissues" of different textures, so babies get a different sensation each time they pull one out. Ages 0+

They can sort, crack and smush these hard plastic eggs any which way they want, but they'll hear a gentle squeak with each squeeze. The bottoms also have different shapes, so returning the eggs to the carton is a shape-sorting activity, while the colored chicks inside help them learn their colors. There's also a coordinating stacking toy to go with this set. Ages 6 months+

It looks so good, they'll look like they're saying, "What's Up, Doc?" The silicone teether is textured, which is extra pleasing on baby gums. Ages 0+

When all the Easter excitement is over, this is the perfect wind-down board book. Good Housekeeping kid testers loved the finger-puppet arms, which get longer and long as the pages of the book get turned. In the book, a variety of animals give their babies a hug before bed.

Zip them up in this soft and cozy footed PJ set, thoughtfully decorated with curious bunnies. It's so precious you might want to keep it stored away with your other baby keepsakes. Ages 0+

This is for all the families out there who, when they give their baby a toy, the baby spends their time playing with the satin tags the most. This lamb gives them what they want: nine tags to play with, plus a soft lamb to snuggle next to. It comes in other animals, too, including a sloth and raccoon. Or, if you like the lamb, you can also get it as a crinkle toy (just $10!), soft book or blanket doll.

These little light-up faces — which look kind of like eggs, don't you think? — offers babies lots of ways to work on those developmental skills. The faces promote visual tracking while the rattling helps them practice motor coordination. And it can stand up on its own and give babies something to look at during tummy time. Ages 0+

Kids can try to use their problem-solving skills to stack the rings in the right order to make a duck. But the rings are also entertaining on their own, and they include a beeping duck, a windmill rattle, a sunflower rattle and a crinkle ring. Ages 3 months+

Okay, these smiling faces are not exactly Easter eggs, but they're also not that far off from eggs, either. Each one stimulates a different sense, including sight, sound and touch. Babies can grasp them, shake them, feel the textures and smile at the different faces. Ages 6 months+

Babies adore lovies. Babies love teethers. Put them together and you've got a great Easter gift. This bunny has parts that crinkle, a teether to chew on, soft cotton plush, textured ribbons and more. You can also get other, non-Easter themed animals, including a dinosaur or a koala.& Ages 0+

Good Housekeeping testers loved the handmade look and feel of these stuffies. They come in many Easter-appropriate animals, including a lamb, duckling or bunny — or you could think out-of-the-box and go with a flamingo. Something else to get you in the Easter spirit: For each one purchased, Cuddle + Kind provides five meals to children in need. Ages 0+

Kids get lots of interaction with this one little bunny. It plays the song "Do Your Ears Hang Low?" and wiggles its ears when its right foot is pressed, and will play a game of peek-a-boo when its left foot is pressed.
