Awesome stocking stuffers under $25 for kids

With so much thought put into the “big gifts” for kids, stocking stuffers aren’t exactly at the top of anyone’s must-get list. However, these little gifts if they’re chosen well are often the ones kids get a real kick out of.

Just remember the best ones are inexpensive and need to deliver large on fun or laughs! Here’s the best ones we’ve rounded up for under $25.

Fill and tie 100 water balloons in less than 60 seconds. Simply connect to a tap or a hose, fill and make hundreds of water balloons with no hand-tying. These ones also fill with a spark of colour for an extra special crazy time.

For laugh out loud fun, prank your family and friends with this fart firing blaster. Just draw the plunger back with one hand while holding the handle with the other. You can also vary your farts by the speed you push the plunger in!

Some awesome ideas and much food for thought. Shopping for Christmas gifts is a horrendous task- so undecided with presents.

Bunch of balloons are fantastic although don’t fill them up early as they deflate. Fill then throw.

There are so many toys out there. They possibly don’t need more, but they always seem to love getting them.

As a grandparent I think I’d rather help stuff their stockings with some more useful items. We are so much more mindful of plastic waste these days and so many toys will ultimately end in landfill.

It seems like such a waste to buy small thoughtless gifts (both monetary and environmental wastes)

  I never really understood the point of stocking stuffers? As a kid I always seen it as pointless junk.

It seems to me like stocking stuffers are getting more expensive these days.
