if you have teens, what do you put in their stocking?

[grumpysquash3]

They don't believe in Santa at this point!
Apart from chocolate, shower gel and pyjamas, what else? I am a bit stumped this year!
.......yes, I know that probably tells me they don't need anything.....but Santa normally brings 6 presents each in the stocking.

Socks ( adidas ones)
A portable phone charger
Head phones

We do the stockings at the table when I am trying to load up the plates, gravy etc. It keeps everyone busy and distracts the 'he has more pigs in blankets than me'. We generally include
I'm a celebrity chocolates
Smelliies
Pants and socks (nice ones too shop etc)
A book
Funny bits I have found all year and hidden.
Scratch card
Bottle of booze for older ones.
Costa card
Cinema voucher.
Sometimes an iou for something funny e.g. A Chinese takeaway or lift to football when it's raining.

Lottery ticket reminds me that last year I brought lucky dips for everyone else who was at our house (7 of us), rolled them up and 'posted' one into each cracker. There was a lottery draw that day.
We don't do the lottery as a rule, but everyone liked that.
Unfortunately no one won!

How old are your children?

[mumsiedarlingrevolta]

Love this thread.
I love doing the stockings-I do lots similar to PP's-
but one of everyone's favourite bits is a small box of trivia
cards (for example footy one for DS1, science-y ones for DS2 and animal theme for DD) and charades in DH's that we play after Christmas lunch

[Moonlightruby320]

Hi

I have a DD aged 14 and a DS aged 11. They too do not believe in Santa. When they were little, I always put cuddly toys and bubbles in their stockings. But now they are older, for my DD I put in lip glosses and hair bands from Claire's and really lovely bracelets from accessorise. For DS, I put in quite a lot of good quality stationery ( since he loves drawing) and a little box of magic tricks.

Hope this helps!

Brilliant ideas here - thanks for sharing!
It turns out you can buy poo emoji slippers, just in case anyone is interested :)

[PossumInAPearTree]

I haven't started yet so marking place but a chocolate Santa is a must in our house.

[Chasingsquirrels]

My 14yo (along with my 10yo) is getting;

• selection box
  
• tube of smarties
  
• chocolate reindeer
  
• Guinness book of records
  
• scout torch
  
• hammock
  
• bakedin mug cake mixes
  
• lakeland mug (with how to make a mug cake recipes around the outside & ingredient levels inside)
  
• new ipad case
  
• rubix cube (well dodecahedron I think, they have cubes and I got different ones last year which they liked, so gone for different ones again this year)
  

I've done hot chocolate (the 1-shot sachets, sprinkle bits and squirter cream) for the last few years.

The Teenager who came to Tea (spoof on Tiger) looks good.

[FrostyLeaves]

That's funny, I thought I'd be the only one "gifting" dried mango!

Yes also to mini marshmallows and hot chocolate.

My ds 14 this year will have
Fruit cider
New wallet with some euros in for trip next year
Hot choc sachets
A spare inner tube for his bike
