Stockings?

[FamKeNekson]

What do I ask father Christmas to put in a stocking for a 10 month old boy please?

I know I'm hijacking AIBU and I know some people baulk and the talk of santa and have always told their children the truth.

But hey ho I'm asking anyway please hit me with some ideas as I'm stuck.

@MrsTimRiggins my 10 month oldest favourite toy at the minute is a soft toy! It's a soft snake that we won on a claw grab machine - that, and a ball are his favourite toys right now - simple toys win😄

Stuff they need eg socks, new cup, new toothbrush, a book, first crayons maybe, small doll or teddy. Don't overthink it - most of my DD's first Christmas presents were hand me downs from a friend

I got my babies rattles/teethers, tiny books, bamboo cutlery/bowl, funny bibs, happy land people and nice baby leggings when they were tiny. I miss them as babies so much - enjoy it

Lots of threads about stocking ideas on the Christmas board.

Small teddy
Clothes (could be something they need anyway)
Board books
A special bauble

I reckon. My boy’s is a dog soft toy (or one of his many tractors)… but ime you get so many given to you by friends and relatives, I think it’s not the best idea to buy them yourself. Nothing against them personally 😆

Stuff you already have. Eg Hand me downs. Second hand stuff. Charity shop stuff.

@MrsTimRiggins yeah, fair enough. My MIL gave me a cuddly toy recently (it's a specific animal that I love!) and when the baby showed an interest she said she'd buy him one too. He has enough already!

Hat and mittens
Socks
First Christmas bauble
Thats Not My book
Fruit
Any if those baby snacks they like
Toothbrush
Baby bubble bath
Happy land Christmas figures
Sippy cup
Cutlery

People are being ridiculous.

books
bath toys
rattle type toys
new pyjamas
slippers
a new little hat and mittens

@NCFT0922 who?

Mines getting:

• piece of dairy and soy free chocolate (his first piece).
• a my first Christmas bib
• a few larger wooden cars
• a flashy bouncy ball
• a sensory jiggly ball (sorry no other way ro explain it lol!)
• a sensory slug

He's also getting an Xmas eve box with:

• pjs
• slippers
• twas the night before christmas and nativity books
• santa key
• christmas plate, bowl, cup
• sleigh bells
• glowsticks
• Light up sensory toy

(The plate/cup/bowl, key, books will return every year, I just bought them this year to show him when he's older that he's had them every year)

I haven't thought fully yet (my LO will be almost 9 months!) But I did see some Organix baby ginger bread people biscuits and they will definitely be going in! Haha!

DS will be almost 1 at Christmas. He's getting a stocking or his older brother will wonder why Santa didn't give him one! In it so far will be:

Toot toot car
Flashing ball
Bath crayons
Wooden caterpillar toy
Sensory glow stick
Bath toy
Socks
Wooden clacker/instrument thing
Packet of chocolate buttons
Some baby biscuits/veggie straws

Might add in some crazy soap/new sippy cup if it needs to be fuller.

Small soft toys (maybe a 'first christmas' teddy) and 'Happyland' people?
