Stuff their Stocking with Toys
Classic Slinky You can’t go wrong with a slinky as a stocking stuffer for your kids. Watching it “crawl” down the stairs was always my favorite thing!
Spinning Tops These hand-painted spinning tops are beautiful! They come in all different shapes and colors and are the perfect size for stocking stuffers for your kids!
Mini Gem Spinner Okay, I had to add these spinners too because I could watch these spin for hours! I love the little gems inside and that these are handmade from natural wood.
Slingshot The BEST stocking stuffer for kids! I mean, what kid doesn’t want to play with a slingshot? It comes with 5 wool balls so they can safely shoot a row of their favorite toy figures without breaking anything or hurting anyone.
Candylab Cars These cars are the perfect way to elevate your child’s stocking stuffers this year. They are incredibly unique and beautifully designed. I love the ones that have a camper attached! Use discount code: purposefultoys15
Character Hot Wheels If you have any Disney and/or car lovers in your life they are definitely going to need these in their stocking! In this set all the cars look like characters from Toy Story. So cute!
Rock Blocks Rock blocks are always fun, but guess what? This company has a “lump of coal” gift bag with black rock blocks that look just like coal for all the “naughty” children in your life! If you love a good joke you can’t pass up this funny stocking stuffer idea!
Maileg Mice I’ll forever love our Maileg mice. These little mice come with a lot of accessories so your child can change out their clothes and engage in small world play. Any of these cute mice would be so cute as a stocking stuffer.

Invisible Ink Pen Why are invisible ink pens so much fun? Your kids will love writing secret messages that can only be viewed with the special light from the pen. Grab a few for each child’s stocking because these are fun all year long!
Snowman Foam Putty I love this snowman foam putty! Build it up, add the cute nose, eyes, and arms and then watch throughout the day as it starts to sink into a puddle. The whole family can get involved building it back in different ways each time it melts. Add this as a stocking stuffer for sure!
Liquid Motion Bubble Pen Your kids are going to love this stocking stuffer! All the fun of the old liquid motion bubbles but in pen form! You could even include a little notepad to go along with it.
Fidget Toys
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.
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!
Games that Fit in a Stocking
World’s Smallest Bop It! This is awesome: it works just like a normal sized bop-it, but the tiny size makes it so much more fun. It will fit perfectly inside a stocking!
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!
Stocking Stuffers for Kids: Bath & Beauty
Surprise Bath Bombs Bath bombs are fun, but the ones that have a surprise inside are so much better! Your kids will love these galaxy themed bath bombs–perfect for space lovers!
Superhero Lip Balm Lip balm is a classic stocking stuffer for kids and these super-hero themed lip balms are the coolest of them all! They’re Lip Smacker brand so you know they’ll smell great.
Colored Hair Accessories Are your girls obsessed with color hair accessories? These hair extensions come in a variety of different colors and would be so fun as stocking stuffers.
Personalized Small Bag I love this cute little bag. It’s a great way to add a personalized stocking stuffer for your kids because you can pick the letter that comes on the bag. I also love this one as another great bag option!
Initial Necklace These dainty heart-shaped initial necklaces are so cute and another fun way to get something personalized just for your child. It would actually make a great stocking stuffer for girls of all ages!
