Stocking ideas 11 year old boy

[Beachesandcream]

I am looking for ideas for an 11 nearly 12 year old boy for his stocking. He loves football and gaming. He is at the age where he no longer wants toys. I am trying to avoid tat that won’t get used.
I have a couple of things but other than sweets and chocolate I’m stuck this year.

Joke book
Lynx body spray
Microwave mug kit
Pencil case
Rolled up magazine
Beanie
Football socks
Water bottle
Hand warmers
Mug
Chop sticks
Waboba moon ball

Guinness Book of Records
Fidget
Newtons Cradle
Animal slippers
Yoyo

Socks
pants
shower gel
body spray
greggs gift card
Terrys chocolate orange
chocolate coins
joke book
pen
lego mini figure

This is what will be in my ds 12 stocking this year, I keep it pretty similar each year now he’s older.

Shin pads
football gloves
sports water bottle

Following as I'm in the same boat.

I haven't bought anything yet, but started to list some ideas:

• Bedding set
• Bath bomb
• Novelty socks (last year I got ones with our dogs face on)
• Football boots bag
• cinema voucher or robux voucher
• some sort of cooking kit
• t shirt from illuminated apparel that I saw recommended on here
• lynx or similar
• gel pens
• book
• top trumps

Not much good with boys as I've got 5DDs OP but I've got a couple of similar boys to buy for so will be watching with interest.
FWIW these are my suggestions;
What about these gaming socks
A pack of instant noodles and some chop sticks.
LED lights for his room.
Charger cables [they're always losing those somehow.]
Toiletries - not necessarily Lynx but Superdry perhaps?
Character mug [Marvel etc] and a hot chocolate stirrer.
