Kelly R. said:  Schleich animals are some of my favorite ideas for stocking stuffers that will get used for years and years. The reindeer is a perfect nod to Christmas!

Kelly R. said:  Fun Band-Aids are my tried-and-true stocking stuffers for toddlers and preschoolers! My kids loved them, they're inexpensive, and they are totally practical. Even my tween still picks a Star Wars Band-Aid once in a while.

Kelly R. said:  December is around the time that fresh school supplies start feeling exciting again, and we usually include a new pack of mechanical pencils as a stocking stuffer. It's a fun treat for our kids who always get the wooden ones for back to school.

Kelly R. said:  Tenzi is our go-to game when we have a little bit of time to kill, and I appreciate that the whole family agrees on it! I love kids stocking stuffer ideas like this that are long and skinny, because they always fit! Adding the Tenzi card set will give you many more ways to play - we use it every time.

Kelly R. said:  My kids can't get enough hot chocolate in the winter, and buying a multi-pack of individual mixes to split among the stockings is an easy way to keep stocking stuffers cheap.

Kelly R. said:  I love adding chapter books to my kids' stockings every year that they can read over the school break. Choose a new one that you think your kid will love, or grab the latest release in one of their favorite series (we usually go for the new Wimpy Kid book every Christmas). Little board books make fun stocking stuffers for babies, too!

Kelly R. said:  Give a rolled-up magazine as a stocking stuffer, with a note that your child can look forward to a full year of new issues coming in the mail. There are many magazines that are great for kids, but mine love National Geographic Kids the best!
