Which company does the best pre-filled stockings? I have 11 year old ds, 9 year old dd and 6 year old ds and considering the Hawkins one.

Hi - we have done Hawkins for the last few years. They are really good, but this year I am doing a 5 year old and a 7 year old from Letterland and a 9 year old and 14 year old from partytoo.com.
I think those ones are nicer than the Hawkins ones, but slightly more expensive.

I love them though because I get to be a bit surprised too on Christmas day.

My sis gave dd1 + dd2 prefilled Hawkins stockings once because she lives in a wierd parralell universe where children don't get a bit suspicious if they have already had a stocking from FC and then 5 days later finds that he accidently delivered some to her house too for them but not ds they were actually good quality for the price, however if possible get different ages, on the things which they fought over only one had in their stocking anyway, but they got two Alice in Wonderland books, which dd1 thought was very odd, because surely FC would realise that a) they didn't both need the same book and b) they already had two copies at home. They were better value for money than buying all the tat yourself from HB, but less personal - and it was mainly tat, no gloves etc. The stockings were good quality, we still use them and got one for ds to match.

Thanks.
Notactuallyme- Did you mean Letterbox instead of Letterland? The £30 Partytoo ones look good.
3bunnies- Thanks. I can bet that my 3 end up swapping or covetting each other's bits and bobs.
