Stocking filler ideas for toddlers

    Hi everyone. I'm struggling to think of ideas for my sons Christmas stocking! He's 20 months old. Too old really for a new dummy or teething mesh which I did last year. I can't just forgo the stocking because I also have a four year old girl and I can think of loads of ideas for hers! What is everyone else putting in stockings? Especially toddler parents?

    In case anyone is stuck for young girl stocking ideas I'll share some of mine:

    Mini cupcake doll
    Stickers
    Lip balm
    Toothbrush/toothpaste (a character one so it's more present-like)
    Blind bag
    Hairbrush/hair ties
    Toy jewellery
    Little bag of sweets

    Anyone have any ideas for littler kids?

    I'm going to steal some of those for my little girl! She'll be three next month and I don't really want to get her sweets for the stocking! I already have a toothbrush, a Belle pencil case. Might go with some toy jewellery as she loves trying on mine!

    I have an 8 month old as well - for him, I've gotten bath toys - rubber ducks & some toy boats. I might also throw in some new doodies, that's a good idea! Cheers!

    Happy to help :D

    That's a good idea, I could pop in some bath toys or, if I can find one, a stress ball/toy kinda thing. You squeeze it and its eye pops out. Home Store and More had some around Halloween. Something like this:

    Bit of squeezy fun for Christmas morning!

    Some of the bits I've added

    Bubbles
    Coloring or sticker books
    Finger puppets ( dealz have some in I think )
    Those sensory toys like squishy balls , or another one like a slinky in shape of a ball that opens and expands and compresses when closed
    A favourite cartoon or movie christmas special like paw patrol saves santa etc.

    What I have so far for my 3 year old girl:

    - Bubbles
    - Brio train & tunnel to add to the collection
    - Bath bomb (she used one of mine before and loves them!)
    - A small Christmas mug, might put some chocolate and marshmallows in
    - Hair bobbins & hair clips
    - Chalk
    - Finger paints
    - Fluffy socks
    - Grimm's Rainbow
    - Grimm's Sorting Mushrooms
    - Might add in a new pot or 2 of Playdoh

    I love doing the stocking, it's my favourite part and LO gets so much enjoyment taking everything out!
