So what are you putting in your dcs stockings?

[wonderstuff]

Need some inspiration. DD is 3 - so far I've got socks, colouring pencils, stickers, sketch book, orange, apple, chocolate coins..bit dull.

My 3 yr old DD is getting:

A pack of pants
Some choc coins
A pink nail varnish
Some stickers
A pink lipgloss (free off a magazine, confiscated and found again tonight)
Some plasters with cartoon animals on
A block of white cards for drawing on
Some new hair bands
A fairy princess figurine to replace hers which broke
A sparkly mirror (given by her gran)
Some felt tips
A bracelet and necklace set
An apple (won't eat clementines)

Reading that back it does sound very girly - none of her other presents are so maybe that's why. Much of it is stuff she needed anyway so I wrapped it.

Socks, choc coins, felt tips, books, board game, vests, facepaint.

Oohh hairbands, excellent..

So far for 3yo DS I have:

Chocolate money
Clementine
A little Disney Cars mug with sweets in
Toothbrush
Paintbrushes
Monkey toy (free with the PG Tips)
Dinosaur cookie cutters

I'm looking for some Christmas socks and hopefully will pop into Hawkins Bazaar to get a couple of little toys and that should do it.

Some of what's been already mentioned, plus:

A mini cereal box, the unhealithier the better, since they eat worthy breakfasts all year round.

New toothbrush

Pants and socks

DS is 2.3. He is getting:

Dizzy toy (from Bob the Builder)
JCB board books
DVD of kids singing nursery rhymes.
Might get him a Peppa magazine
Individual carton of apple juice (really. I'm not tight he LOVES these)
Socks sounds like a good idea.

Granny is getting all sorts of sweetie crap for her grandchildren, 18.5-2.3, all under one roof for first time ever.

dd is 5 and her stocking just has chocolate, things like the smarties penguin, lint reindeer ect - i don't let her eat it all at once and i have more than enough little bits of plastic toot in the house without buying more for her stocking!

2.5 year old DS is getting a book, toothbrush, socks, thomas the tank engine for his train set, choc coins, mini drawing pad with pencils, mini felt (or magnetic?) thomas the tank engine tin, gruffalo pencils, chalk (for the easel his GPs are getting him) and he'll definitely get a clementine. Even though he doesn't like them!

All of mine get diary, lolly, giant choc coin, selection box, toothbrush, shampoo;

DS1 (11) also has box of jokes, Origami set, bath bubbles, calendar shampoo, wind-up torch, slippers.

DD (9), Lego Jester set and keyring (about the only thing she has asked for this year!), calendar, a couple of Indian jewellery bits from a friend, couple of Brownie gifts.

DS2 (7) has sports card game, posh soap, boxer pants, rubbers in shape of football boots, DVD of his footie team. Hmm I think he may need something else.

Cartoon plasters are good.

Sorry I see that mine are all a lot older than yours OP.

Not so helpful. And maybe that they still buy FC? actually not sure this year is any of them do but they are all keeping schtumm.

I've never put chocolate in DCs stockings as they get loads from other people and last year we were still eating Xmas chocolate come Easter (we are very mean and ration chocolate!) I tend to try and ensure that some of the things that go onto the Santa list are small enough to fit in a stocking (eg the DVDs and hairbands) so other than these things they only get one other, bigger, thing from Santa (DD is getting a swing for her dolls and DS a Farm set)

DS1 is 3 and getting ...

Toothbrush and toothpaste
Pants and socks
Wind up torch
Putty (makes farting noise)
Pjs
Snakes and ladders
Paper aeroplane
Book
Thomas calendar
Choc coins
Satsuma
Paint
Crayons
Tell the time magnet
Puzzle
Wind up helicopter thing

I prefer stockings to main present, where we set more of a budget.
