Use an Easter themed bag if you’ll be traveling
Unless you’ve got a suitcase that works like Hermoine’s magical purse, a basket will not be convenient for travel. Choose a festive gift bag instead.

Theme Park Supplies to Put in Your Universal Orlando Easter Basket
Add some practical supplies to your basket. For more ideas, be sure to check out my Orlando summer gear guide here.
Poncho
If you’re preparing for a summertime trip to Orlando, you’ll need to pack a poncho. Add a brightly colored kids-sized poncho to their basket.
Drawstring backpack
Add a packable backpack to your Universal Orlando Easter basket – or use the backpack as the basket!

Movies too
Especially at Universal Studios Florida, movies are a big inspiration for lands and attractions. Check out this post for my complete list of movies and TV shows that inspired the rides at Universal Orlando.
Then pick up a couple of DVDs to put in your basket. Maybe add some microwave popcorn too.
