Stocking Fillers for 8 and 10 year old boys

[NyaNinjago]

I know it's early but I like to pick up some small bits from Sept on for stocking fillers for 2ds. They are 8 and 10. I am completely stumped this year though. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Pens, little drawing books, wallet with some money inside, fun character hat, little games like those ones where you move the ball into the holes. Yoyo.

Top up and fill space with sweets

Wind up torch
Novelty socks (DS is getting Fortnite ones this year)
Big bar of favourite sweets
Travel version of a favourite board game
Lego mini figures

I've also seen things like astronaut food (buy on Amazon), mini packs of cereal and cans of fizzy drinks recommended.

I have just seen a power bank shaped like the emoji poo. That would tickle DS

Mine will be 8 years old and 9 1/2 years old. So far the list is

Compass (both)
Pocket knife (Ds1) and pocket telescope (Ds2)
Mini Newtons Cradle (both)
Orbeez (both)
MP3 player (both) $3 from Aliexpress, we’ve loaded a load of their favourite songs on them ready to use.
Gel pens (Ds1) and new decent colouring pencils (Ds2 the artist of the family)
Top Trumps (Ocean Predators for Ds1, Dino Biggest Bite for Ds2)
iTunes gift cards (both)
Probably a Treasure X surprise toy (Ds1) Stikbot Dino egg (Ds2)
Then chocolate coins and Satsuma

@TheWoollybacksWife please tell me where you saw the poo emoji power bank? My Ds2 would be made up with that!!

@leesmum I found it by typing "novelty power bank" into the amazon search bar. The poo cushion was a huge hit last year so this has got to be a winner

Brilliant, Thanks

I've ordered these to go in stockings, £1.50

I just picked up a motor for a paper airplane cheaply on Ali express that I know ds8 will love.

Some ideas for my 10 yr old

Harry Potter Lego blind bags
Cosy bed socks
iTunes or book voucher
Novelty stationery ( scented pencils and rubbers from smiggle popular here)
Mini boxes of treat cereal
Joke book/puzzle book
Sweets
Satsuma or clementine (everyone always gets this, even the grown ups)
A new annual (though is left by the stocking, not in it obviously)
New socks/pants/PJ's (for bulk mostly!)

I have ordered (thanks to the Bargains thread) a Harry Potter bracelet and a snitch necklace as stocking fillers for DD (will be 13 but soooo not girly!, but is a HP fan and is starting to wear some slightly offbeat jewellery like a bracelet from a piece of sailing rope and shackle!).

Things she loved in the past were stuff like
slinky
crystal growing kit (small box, was about €5)
extra cards for Match Attax collection
a luggage tag from (that movie that was all about emotions)
Moshi Monsters
(basically - different cards or small collectables from things she definitely already collected or we knew she liked the movies etc)

Funny socks
Squashy or bouncy balls
Marbles
Dinky cars
Fancy pencils and colours and rubbers etc for school
Christmas edition of a favourite Comic
Books
Long Sports socks - fancy patterned ones or her favourite team ones rather than actual club/school ones

Bugs in glass (Perspex)
Personalised Nutella
Different patterned bath ducks
A Horrid Henry fake nose

Sorry only getting a chance to reply now. Little DD started school today so it's been a bit hectic. Thanks so much for all the ideas. I can see quite a few that they would love. I didn't even think of novelty socks! DS2 has a habit of wearing 2 different sock just because he can so he would love that idea.

Top trumps (my cousins love Plop Trumps!)
Glow in the dark stick up stars
Funky marbles (House of Marbles do amazing ones)
Compass
Head torch or keyring torch
Glow sticks
Slap bands - reflective or sports related
Stickers, spoke decorations, bell or similar for bikes

Biggest stocking hit last year when boys were 9 and 11 were elastic band powered gliders. Played with for hours and hours.

I hit the Smiggle 5 items for £5 hard over a couple of months, and their sale where pencils were like 30p and got about 25 stationary items all together. I’ve also popped in a couple of elastic band gliders (thanks tiggles!), Pokemon socks, a hat and gloves and slime. I’ll also be popping some sweets in and also match attax cards, but the new match attax cards don’t come out until October so it’s pointless buying them now.

My 8 year old niece is coveting that mini toilet thing that fires poos

So something like that 😂😂😂
