How Do You Fill A Christmas Stocking?
• Consider the recipient. Are you filling the stocking of a six year old boy or a sixty year old woman? What do you think the person might like? Loading… • Choose small and generally inexpensive gifts. Well chosen gifts need not be costly to be meaningful, helpful, or fun. • Remember toys for kids and kids at heart. The classics are great additions to any stocking: crayons, modeling clay or play dough, a Slinky, miniature Lego kits, travel games, decks of cards, mini jigsaw puzzles, wind-up toys, tops, squirt guns, balloons, beach balls, high bounce balls, small stuffed animals, toy cars, and even fancy shoelaces. • Add foods. A wide variety of foods fit in stockings, and they are consumable, enjoyable, and easy to give. • Try a favorite candy, jam, mustard, or ice cream sauce. • Fancy coffee or tea samplers would make a great addition for those who drink them. • Gum, cookies, fruit leathers, and other small snacks fit nicely. • An orange, or a chocolate orange, fits well in the toe
