Easter will be here before we know it, and if your kids are anything like mine, they get more than their fair share of chocolate to open on Easter Sunday! If you’re looking for some alternative easter gift ideas that last a little longer, Easter toys make excellent Easter gifts for kids. Easter cuddly toys are not only super cute but these chicks, bunnies and lambs can be enjoyed and loved for years to come.
From Easter Squishmallows to Ty Beanie Boos, Squish a Boos, Dream Beams and more, here’s the Real Mum Review’s verdict on the best Easter soft toys you can buy for non chocolate gifts this Easter.
Easter Squishmallows
It’s no surprise that Squishmallows are at the top of our list when it comes to the best Easter soft toys. Squishmallow Easter range. With over 1000 Squishmallows to collect, these super soft, squishy, cuddly friends come in a range of themes and characters, including a selection of Easter Squishmallows that are guaranteed to be popular squishmallows this April. Here are our favourite Easter Squishmallows you can get hold of today.
1. Squishmallows 7.5″ Soft Toy – Charlize the Cockatiel
We love the variety of textures on this 7.5″ Easter Squishmallow called Charliize. She’s actually meant to be a cockatiel, but appearance-wise, she falls very nicely into the chick category! We love her fluffy wings and rosy cheeks too. She’s only available for click-and-collect at the moment but more stock is expected before Easter.
RRP £9
Dimensions – 7.5″
2. Squishmallows™ 8″ Claire’s Exclusive Chicken Costume Soft Toy
One of a selection of exclusive Easter Squishmallows at Claire’s (meaning you won’t get them anywhere else) this little fella is named Noodles. An adorable lemon yellow easter chick wearing a removable hood, who can resist those rosy cheeks and the little tuft of hair?
RRP – £16
Dimensions: 8″ length
3. Hello Kitty® And Friends Squishmallows™ My Melody 12” Soft Toy
Is it a bunny? We’ll be honest, we’re not entirely sure – but one thing we’re certain of – this Hello Kitty & Friends Easter squish mallow is CUUUUTE! With an ice cream cone vibe and what looks like adorable bunny ears, this is a great option for fans of the Hello Kitty franchise.
RRP – £30
Dimensions – 12″
4. Squishmallows™ 5″ Claire’s Exclusive Ombre Bunny Soft Toy – White
The last of our recommended Easter squishmallows is another Claire’s exclusive – this Easter Bunny toy has long floppy ombre ears and a cute little bob tail – we love the varying shades of pink and lilac!
RRP – £8
Dimensions – 5″ length
Easter Ty Squish a Boos
If you’re looking for an alternative to Squishmallows, Ty Squishaboos are a great choice, with a wide range of super cute, squishy and soft characters to choose from. The good thing about Squish a Boos, is that they’re generally cheaper than Squishmallows, however they’re not quite as soft and haven’t quite yet matched the popularity. When it comes to Easter designs, there are a few Ty Squish a Boos that really stand out!
1. Ty Toys Squish a Boo Easter Chick Hatch
How adorable is this little Easter chick Ty Squish a Boo, hatching from his very own egg. At 20cm long, he’s great to cuddle and also makes a cosy pillow for cuddling up to whilst stuffing your face with an easter egg (or maybe that’s just me). We love his huge green eyes and that he’s really affordable too.
RRP £9.13
Dimensions – 20cm
2. Ty Furry Rabbit Easter Squish-A-Boo 14″
If you’re after an Easter soft toy that’s a traditional Easter bunny teddy design, this Furry Rabbit Ty Squish a Boo makes a popular choice. With a pastel rainbow ‘splodge’ style design, his cute little bunny ears are great for smaller hands to grab onto!
RRP: £13.60
DImensions – 14″ length
Easter Ty Beanie Boos
Ty Beanie Boos are incredibly popular at the moment, especially with tweens girls – my daughter has amassed quite a collection and loves them for their huge beady eyes and cute expressions. Ty Beanie Boos are also incredibly collectible and have a fairly iconic statue on You Tube Kids, with many accounts dedicated entirely to Beanie Boos and their exploits! If you’re looking for the best Easter beanie boos to gift this Easter, here are a small selection of our favourites.
1. Ty Mary The Easter Lamb Beanie Boo
Be honest, have you ever seen anything so cute? Mary the Easter Lamb Beanie Boo looks right into your soul with those adorable puppy dog eyes! With a cute bunny ears headband, we love the green shimmering eyes that compliment her green paws and inner ear. Just adorable
RRP – £8.99
Carletto Ty 36171 Ty 36171 Lavender with Glitter Eyes, Beanie Boo’s
Whilst purple lambs aren’t particularly common place, it definitely works when it comes to Easter beanie boos! We love this lavender Carletto Beanie Boo with glittery purple paws.
RRP £18.99
Ty Beanie Boos Feathers Chick Easter 6″
Last but by no means least is the Feathers Chick Easter Beanie Boo, with an ombre style yellow and red fluffy ball of fur. Thanks to his small size, this little fella is ideal for popping into an easter basket on Easter Sunday, and is a portable option for visiting friends and family too.
RRP £16.99
Easter Dream Beams
Another great alternative to Squishmallows are Dream Beams. Not only are they cute and squishy but they also gently glow in the dark when the lights go out, becoming a comforting bedtime companion for your kids !
This is Shelley the Sheep who measures 18cm tall and comes in a bright, colourful design.
RRP – £9
