Big, cheap items to fill the stockings

[swizzlestix]

Children are 8 boy and 11 girl have got both lots of nice little bits and had the genius idea for a tube of Pringles in each but need some more bigger things that will help fill the gaps. Any ideas welcome

Mini cereal boxes are a good idea!

Swim towel
Fleece blanket or cushion for their rooms
Colouring book
Other ‘treat’ food
Bubble bath

Jar of chocolate spread?

Rolled up comic or puzzle book

(Mine have sacks rather than real stockings so I have this dilemma every year! Hate buying tat for the sake of it so tend to buy usefulish bits as fillers)

Marshmallows

Large chocolate santas. Pack of their favourite biscuits (DD will be getting jammy dodgers) in hers.

Their favourite cereal, a pencil case/stationery sets, books (Guinness book of world records for example), some kind of cheaper craft set (friendship bracelets for example), an activity book (crossword/wordsearch/codebreaker etc) and pen, new toothbrush, a christmas jumper (cheap at Asda or Primark)...can't think of anymore!

A can of pop, scarf, cuddly toy

Socks.
Satsuma / fruit
Bubbles
Christmas hat (material not cracker style)
Cracker to pull
Lollipop
Small book
Comic book
Colouring pencils
Pyjamas
Socks

Massive bag of American marshmallows from Tesco or Sainsburys. Pot of candyfloss. Bottle of drink they can have there and then if they want, something they either love or have wanted to try. Rolled up comic. Metre of jaffa cakes. Chocolate orange.

Colouring books, crayons, chocolate Santa.

Jar of hot choc and large bag of marshmallows

My 2 are 9 and 12, and love those grow your own crystals sets - you can get them pretty cheap on Amazon. Also those fossil digging sets. They're cheapish but can be quite bulky so will fill some gaps! I usually put both in their stockings every year. Keeps them busy for a while on christmas morning too!

I found a 'make your own slime' kit in Waterstones for a 10 year old. About £7 IIRC.
Jar of Nutella?

Selection box, or is that too obvious to mention?

We always put a magazine in which helps bulk it out! Also one of those 'large' tubes of sweets :)

By the tills in our TK Maxx they have a sort of candy kebab for about £2. It’s like foam shrimps (but more exciting) about 45 long, big bulky and very impressive looking.

12 pack of their favourite crisps? Cheap and very filling!

Primark Christmassy tee shirts
Primark fluffy socks
Poundland tube of sweets
Rolled up magazne or comic that they love

A football.
Can of favourite fizzy drink, especially if this isn't usually allowed!
Character bottle of shampoo and bubble bath.
Soap on a rope.
Jigsaw.
One of those plastic reusable twirly straws.
Water bottle..

People seem to have huge stockings? Not sure I could fit most of these things in the dd’s And their stockings are not small.

Dd1 has a sand dragon/lizard in hers (toy full of sand, quite heavy).
A drink bottle from smiggle.
Socks.
Jelly beans.
Slinky.
Pens.
Smiggle pencil sharpener.
Pokemon cards.

If there’s any room left I will put a chocolate orange or a mini pot of Pringles in there.

I got a huge tin of Bourbon biscuits (that looks like a bourbon!) for £4 for mine. They also had custard creams.

TwoGinScentedTears where did you get the biscuit tins from?

Self inflating whoopee cushion

Ah sorry, that would help. An Iceland warehouse but I imagine they sell them in Iceland too
