What to Write in an Easter Card for Son

Whether your son is little and loves chocolate eggs or all grown up and still expects one, an Easter card is a lovely way to remind him how much he means to you. You can keep it short and sweet, add a joke, or go full proud-parent mode—whatever suits your style (and his).

Here are some message ideas to help you write the perfect Easter card for your son.

Sweet & Sentimental

These messages are perfect for expressing just how much your son means to you. Whether he’s near or far, young or grown, a sweet note can remind him how loved and appreciated he is every day—especially at Easter.

Wishing you a joyful Easter filled with love, laughter, and all your favourite treats.
No matter how big you get, you’ll always be our little Easter bunny.
You make every season brighter. We’re so proud of the person you are.

Wishing you an Easter full of joy, sunshine, and enough chocolate to make your day awesome.

From egg hunts to big hugs, every Easter has been brighter with you in it.

Funny, Jokes, Playful & Happy

Add some humour to your son's Easter card with a playful message or a silly joke. These light-hearted ideas are perfect for keeping things cheerful and making him smile—no matter his age.

Happy Easter to my egg-ceptional son!
May your day be filled with chocolate and zero responsibilities.
Warning: Bunny may bite if chocolate supplies run low.

He is risen! May your heart be filled with hope, love, and the goodness of this season.

Eggs are hidden, bunnies hop, you’re the reason my heart won’t stop—smiling. Happy Easter, kiddo.

Rude, Crude & Sarcastic

If your son loves a bit of cheeky humour or enjoys a good laugh at your expense, this is the section for him. These messages are playful, light-hearted, and just the right amount of sarcastic.

Happy Easter! Now act surprised when you find chocolate in every cupboard.
You're never too old for an egg hunt… just too tall to hide behind the sofa.
May your Easter basket be fuller than your laundry pile.

Your laughter is louder than any egg hunt. You make every day feel like Easter morning.

Watching you grow has been the greatest gift. Wishing you a fun, love-filled Easter!

Short & Simple

If you're short on time or just want to keep it low-key, these quick messages still pack a loving punch. Sometimes a few well-chosen words are all it takes to make his day.

Love you loads. Happy Easter!
Enjoy the sunshine and sweets.
Hoppy Easter to my favourite human!

Let’s be honest—no one crushes an egg hunt quite like you do. Go win those sweets!

Easter reminds me of when you were little—sticky fingers and wide-eyed wonder. Still my baby boy.

Religious, Christian, Orthodox & Bible Verses

If Easter holds spiritual meaning for your son, these faith-based messages are a thoughtful way to honour the season. Share the hope and joy of the resurrection with words that uplift and inspire.

Wishing you a peaceful Easter filled with faith, hope, and love.
He is risen! May your heart be light and your spirit full.
"Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life.'" – John 11:25

You’ve always had that spark—the kind that makes everyone smile. Never lose it, son.

Every season, every year—you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. Happy Easter!

Non-religious

Not everyone celebrates Easter with religious traditions, and that's totally fine. These messages focus on joy, fresh starts, and seasonal fun—perfect for sons who just want to enjoy the lighter side of spring.

Here’s to fresh starts, spring sunshine, and chocolate-induced happiness.
Hope your Easter is as awesome as you are.
Sending you love, laughter, and a little sugar rush.

Make it from you to your son

Whether your message is silly, heartfelt or a little bit sassy, your son will love hearing from you this Easter. Personalise it, keep it honest, and don’t forget to slip in a bit of love (and maybe a chocolate egg or two).
