Particularly big this year are unwrapping and hatching surprise toys. Here are the best stocking fillers for this season under $13.

  • Am quite amazed at how much is spent on children for Christmas these days. Is it really necessary to have stocking fillers as well as copious presents? Growing up I was happy to have one good present for me at Christmas, and my children were happy with one big present that many helped to pay for or a few smaller ones. Somehow think that the world has gone crazy these days.

  • I never know what to put in the stockings. I try not to do small toys because then I have a house full of them! I usually do bubbles and chocolates etc as I don’t think it matters if it’s under the tree or in the stocking.

  • We always do Christmas stockings and have some beautiful ones that come out each year. I put in some little chockies, lego minifigures, new pens or textas or a summer hat. Lots of great ideas in your article.

  • I actually have never done stockings for Christmas, and I don’t actually know why; I believe it may be because as a child I had my stockings hung above a fireplace but I’ve never owned a fireplace at my own home.
    Maybe it’s time to start this tradition.
