Marvel Themed Morning Basket
For the month of June I am taking child led learning to a whole new level by letting Emily completely take over our morning basket. She chose the theme and everything that is inside it!
She said, and I quote that she wanted to have a “marvelously super summer” and I think with this basket we definitely will!
The four main catergories of things that we include in our morning basket each month are read alouds, madlibs and/or trivia, hands-on activities, and games. The main reason we include these are because they are Emily’s favorite things and I find I like to start our day by connecting and filling her love tank.
Each morning (or whatever time we start our homeschool day) she enjoys the hands-on activities while I read aloud, then we do either a mad lib or some trivia, and we finish our morning basket time by playing a game together. What’s in this basket might look like a lot but chipping away at it every day for a month normally ensures we will get to enjoy it all.
Would like to see our morning basket in action and see how we have made it worked for us over the years? Then check out our Join Us For Morning Time series on our YouTube channel.

We just finished watching everything Marvel in chronological order a few weeks ago. We loved it! This would be so great to win. Thanks for the opportunity.
My son is obsessed, I mean OBSESSED, with anything superhero related. He would love to delve deeper into Stan Lee and learn about him.
I love that she got to come up with it on her own and that she did such an amazing job!
A MARVEL MORNING BASKET?!? OH MY!
My daughter’s dream come true! Brilliant idea!
My son loooves Marvel! Breaks my DC-loving heart a little hahaha. But we are getting ready to bring the MCU into his world, and a unit like this would be perfection!
I love that she loves morning basket time and put this all together! Child led learning is so great.
This is perfect timing! My son loves Spider-Man and is very into creating his own comics and drawing out his story ideas!
I have 6 boys, you just saved my summer and made me the best mom ever. I can’t wait to do the perler beads for myself 😉
We love watching Marvel movies and this would be super fun to try out with her. She is 3.5yrs so I will have to pick books accordingly but can’t wait to do a Marvel theme basket with her.
This is Awesome! We are huge MCU fans. Great job Emily!
Love Marvel. My kids know a bit but they’d love exploring it this deeply.
You just made me the best mom
I bet my kids could do this unit study ALL year. Super idea, you’ve made us all supermoms with this one!
Oh, that is a morning basket after our own hearts! So cool!!
Oh wow great job Emily!! My son and daughter would adore this morning basket! What an amazing theme!
We love superheros! I’m off to check out your morning basket links. I’m homeschooling a 15 year old and a 7 year old, which in many ways feels like two only children. I hadn’t considered a morning basket for my youngest.
My 4yr old saw this basket and said he wants to do it too! We are currently doing a bug theme and he said he doeant want to do bugs he wants to do super heroes! Hahaha. Guess we’ll be doing this type of basket soon! 😁
Such an awesome idea! We have been wanting to watch all the Marvel movies in order so this would be an amazing unit study. Also, great job Emily!!
My son would love this. He is a big avengers fan. So fun.
What an awesome theme! So marvellously fun, I learnt who Stan Lee was because of big bang theory 😂
My kids will love this theme, they love super heroes 🦸♂️. Thanks for the idea
This is brilliant!!!
Great job, Emily! My son saw this and wants to do it now.
Great job, Emily! My son saw this and wants to do it now.
Wow! What a great summer morning basket! This looks great. We’d love to have A Stan Lee study!
What a fun filled basket. I really want to start doing morning baskets for my girls this fall.
Great idea for a basket!! Way to go Emily!
Morning baskets are something I’m definitely going to incorporate into our lives….starting this summer. I think it will give the kids a guide to which activities are acceptable before 8am (early risers all of them 😱) and keep them from asking for the remote first thing every morning!
My son loves Stan Lee. Even if we don’t win, this is one that I plan on purchasing in the coming weeks.
I showed my boys this and they are all over it 🙂 Thank you for sharing this. I’m starting to really look into creating themed morning baskets.
Thanks for all you do! Love this morning basket, you are so creative 😊
My sons would love this! They are huge Marvel fans, and we are hoping to begin our morning time next week!
Oh my!!! I love this so much!! My sons would flip to have a basket like this…. thanks for sharing this creative basket idea. I would love to win the Stan Lee unit study which would go perfect with super hero fun basket. 🙂
