Fidget Pop Ball Fidget toys never get old! This pop ball is fun for each individual pop or to squeeze it like a stress ball. Perfect stocking stuffer for kids of all ages.

NeeDoh Dream Drop Sensory Squeeze Toy You can’t go wrong with a fun sensory toy from NeeDoh. We love the texture of this drop and it comes with a fun squishy base to stand it on when not in use.

Globbles Sticky Ball Have you ever squished one of these between your fingers? So satisfying! These are great stocking stuffers for kids because although they’re sticky, they don’t leave any gross residue behind on your wall, and washing them restores their stickiness!

Glowing Rail Twirler This light up twirler comes in a three pack so you can easily divide it up amongst your kids. Think yoyo, but easier to maneuver and no string to wind which is a bonus.

Water Games I remember these from when I was a kid, and even though they’re simple, I think they are the perfect stocking stuffer for kids. You just press the buttons and try to get the ball through the hoop or the ring on the stick, but because it’s all in water you never know where it’s going to go!

Olaf Bop It! Bop It games are always a hit at our house and we love this fun Frozen themed Bop It with Olaf and his silly voice.

Rechargeable Air Hockey Puck This air hockey set is fun for the entire family! You can use it on any surface. We like to use our kitchen table and add a strip of tape to the edges to help keep the puck from falling off the edge.
