Traditional stocking gifts for DCs

I have a 2 year old DS and 8 month old DD. I've just bought them both a stocking that we can bring out every year as a family tradition.

Sorry if this has been done before, but does anyone fancy sharing their stocking gifts that go in year on year? I only want simple things really. Like a satsuma, craft bits for DS etc. Thanks!

The things that appear year on year:

Satsuma (obviously!)
Chocolate - coins or Santa lolly type stuff
New toothbrush
Magic flannel
Character undies
Character socks

Mine are older, but every year they get :

A huge box of Chocolate cereal (as they're not normally allowed it!)
A big pack of bubble gum (same reason as above)
Chocolate selection box
New underwear
A new DVD
New books
A new outfit or two
Hair clips etc
A game or jigsaw puzzle
Often a new cushion for their rooms
New dressing gown / slippers if needed.

And some other bits that vary from year to year. We do have sacks for our stockings though!
