I need to stop buying for my daughter. My god I could buy her so much πŸ˜­πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

But my son I’m struggling with! So far he has:

Tape measure (he’s obsessed with Mine!)
Bathbomb
Slither.o blind bag
Slime
Pokemon cards
Pokemon socks

I’m going to put some american sweets in too.

What else could I get? My daughter has little things like lipgloss and small bits, so it looks more :(

How do you fit a beano album in a large sock (=stocking) ?? I struggle to get a chocolate orange into the toes of our stockings.

burntoutmum · 23/11/2017 21:41

We’re β€œlucky” enough to live about a mile away from a store lizard ConfusedGrin

MegBusset · 23/11/2017 21:58

DidIReally we have ancient (and small!) stockings bought from Woolworths years ago, we shove smaller bits down into the sock end, then can just about squeeze an annual into the main bit (sticking out of the top) and wedge any other books and remaining bits down the side. It's an interesting Christmas Eve challenge, particularly after a few glasses of prosecco Grin
