... because I couldn't resist a set of advent gift bags in ikea! They are a reasonable size - about 4 inches x 3 inches each! Sweets obviously, but not sure what else now Confused boys not particularly cool, and happy to revert back to being kids at Christmas!

I saw a set of 24 litte Pokemon figures on Amazon that were about £15 iirc and if they are into Pokemon. Also little lego men or joke/magic tricks or puzzles.

Pen torch, pen knife, pen, survival stuff like a flint, mini first aid kit, touch screen gloves, screen wipes, magnifying glass

Socks, roll on, hair jel, comb, condoms?

Lego figures? My almost 11 yr old still loves Lego Star Wars figures. You can often buy them on ebay for a couple of pounds.

I think putting condoms in a 12 year old son stocking might not be quite the message you'd want to convey.

At 12 they're waterbombs and balloons but at what age is it appropriate?

At 14 its not such a wild concept to be sexually experimental.

Key ring
Lip salve
Chocolate or sugar mouse

Mini stapler
Party bombs/blower/streamers
Individually wrapped cakes eg madeleines

Who knows flouncing? You want them to be safe but also you don't want to normalise early sexual encounters. My two are older than 14 but don't think they've dabbled yet. I think making a box available in the bathroom cabinet is a bit more subtle than giving them as a gift though. :)

Thimbles

Badges

Glue sticks, rubbers, a pencil sharpener, mini Sharpies, Blu- tak. Tubes of paint if they are arty.
Have a look in Tiger if there's one near you, they often do great stocking fillers.

Boxer shorts , gloves , thermal vest , hand cream , mini shower gel , after shaving moisturiser , hair wax , novelty socks , hot chocolate sachets

Could you include some home made vouchers? E.g. Voucher for a fry up breakfast on a weekend/voucher for an extra hour's screen time/voucher for a trip to the cinema....whatever they would like!
