What Do You Stuff Your Kids Stockings With?

stickers
candy
toothbrushes
nail polish
chapstick
hair stuff
underwear
stamps

Basically I just wander around the dollar store and grab stuff I think they'd like, and top it off with things they *need*.

Inexpensive necklace ($5-10) from Wal-Mart or Target

Crayons

Coloring pens

Cute keychain

Fuzzy, warm socks

Stickers

Gum

Chapstick

I put exactly the same as what you put.

at ten my mom put candy, some preteen magazine, hair things, more candy=) little toys that could be gotten under 5 bucks

Handheld video games

Candy

Gift cards I make up (like one night of dinner of their choice, one night free of chores, etc)

Actual gift cards (think $5 dairy queen card)

Toothbrushes

Socks

Pencils/Pens for school

Mini Puzzles

Card Games

10 was easy for a girl..hair do-dads, lip gloss, nail stuff, socks, music, lotion, bath stuff, etc)!

Mine is 17 now, so new earbuds, a CD (yes she still wants those :-), a book, socks/slippers, some fancy Green and Black's chocolate...candy cane...usually I put new collars for the kitties in her stocking too if they need it...but last years are still fine..so maybe some catnip and cat toys (shes the cat "owner" on record)....and a few of her fancy colored pencils (she is an artist attending an arts high school)...

Have fun with it!!

My 10 year old is getting gloves, beef jerky (her favorite!), candy, lip gloss, bath salts, a webkinz, and a few little small toys that are holiday related.

There have been several posts like this in the past week, you might want to do a search. My daughters are now teens, here are somethings I did a few years ago.

lip balm
fuzzy socks
m&m's, candy bar
gum
hair ties
shower gel and a poofie
nail polish
jewelry
mittens/gloves
hand lotion
brush/comb
toothbrush
coloring book/activity book
crayons/markers
deck of cards
small game, like Uno
book
music cd
movie tickets
fun erasers
pencil case
fun pencils, gel pens
journal
magazine
underwear

mostly chocolate, little tacky jewelry, candy, hair stuff, a cheap watch..........pretty much anything little and not of much value.

toothpaste toothbrush, body soaps, cars, action figures, colors and color books,batteries, candy, body wash , body spray (for the older ones and 10 should like this) earrings or jewlery in general. make up if you approve of it for that age, a purse under the tree and a wallet in the stocking she is getting close enough to need one. I got something really cool that I was dying for last year and it cost a whole dollar a hair brush with a mirror on the back and hair ties in it. I do alot of pony tails. she is at the age that would be cool. hair barettes.

Fun bandaids. (I won't buy them during the year, so it's a fun treat for them at Christmas.) :) Or gum -- we don't do many sweets, but gum is nice. Fingernail polish and/or a nail files is good. This year, my husband wants his gift to be paying extra on the mortgage so we can pay it off sooner...so that's going in his stocking! :)

Bath stuff (mine also loves this stuff), a penny per year of age, a couple of small candies (3-4), an orange, and a little toy (usually some thing under 5 dollars) that will get him something to keep his interest until we open gifts.

lottery ticket
A drink- either a hot cocoa mix or juice box
bath toys (my kiddos are a bit younger. We have done bath stickers (Alex brand), stackable bath cups, funny rubber ducks, bubble bath, those dollar store wash cloths that are smashed into a block, or THE BEST was h2goo (thinkgeek.com)- a packet that you dissolve in bat water and it turns the bath water into goop!
toothbrushes and paste
art supplies
Itunes card or McDonalds gift card
chapstick
mittens/scarf/hat

We havecalways done stockings for the eight in our family.....little kids likeva box of bandaids....small books...flashlights...anything and everything...the most valuable thing I did time wise was to wrap the gift items in aluminum foil, shiny side out....conforms to any shape and NO tape necessary!!!!
Saved me SO much time!

When I was young My "santa" gave us a box of cereal that mom wouldn't normally buy. toothbrush and a game of cards. there are so many that we still haven't played.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
Almond Joy
I also put in her other favorite snacks
Pistachios
Green olives
Sweet gherkins
Pickled okra
Beef jerky
