Stocking Stuffers; The Ultimate List- Whole Wide World Toys

The Ultimate List of Stocking Stuffers

This list is gold. It’s taken me years to get here.  I not only fill my kids’ stockings, but I also fill an advent calendar for each day of December.  I have a braided yarn with 25 children’s mittens hanging from it for each child. Every day there’s a teeny, tiny little gift in one of the mittens!  Then for Christmas, I need to fill their stocking stuffers! So, I need a lot of ideas.

Scan to see which ones work for your kids’ ages because some of these only work for teenagers or adults (depending on how you feel about buying lottery tickets for kids).

What am I missing here?  Do you have your own favorites?
