Great stocking stuffer ideas for kids that they will love to find on Christmas morning. Small games, silly toys, art supplies and more!
Updated November 2023
Finding great stocking stuffers can be tricky. The perfect gifts need to be small and fun and relatively inexpensive… but not just junk that will get thrown away by the new year.
Of course we might slip in a few useful necessities like a cute box of bandages or a new toothbrush, but we also try to find unique gifts that will be an unexpected surprise on Christmas morning.
After years of experience, our team has come up with a short and sweet list of stocking stuffer favorites. We’ve put together a super fun mix of small, inexpensive gifts: games, toys, and art supplies your kids are sure to love!
10 Fun Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Kids
These erasers are irresistibly cute! Our kids love anything scented and anything mini, so these tiny icy pops are sure to be a big hit. We also love the macaron, donut, and ice cream cone varieties!
This little guy transforms from a wood block to a robot and back again… if you can figure it out! A classic, long-lasting toy that comes in a variety of colors and sizes
There’s just something about sticky notes that my kids have always loved. And these cute animals are extra fun! This set comes in a six-pack that’s easy to separate for different gifts. (These sticky note flags are also adorable and make perfect bookmarks!)
A fun deck of games perfect for travel, or anytime you need a little extra inspiration!
These bath bomb potions are so cute and so fun! Your kids will love reusing the little plastic potion bottles for all kinds of experiments, and you could even refill with a set of fizzing bath tablets like these.
How can you make a classic spinning top even more fun? Add color! It’s a simple concept that’s surprisingly fun for kids of all ages. And do you remember Spirograph? Another classic that’s still popular for good reason. This mini gift tin would make the perfect stocking stuffer!
Your kids can get a surprising amount of fun out of a little headlamp! Absolutely perfect for nighttime reading, outdoor adventures, or exploring the unknown depths of the front hall closet.
Slip a couple of these foam airplanes into each stocking and your kids will have a blast racing planes on Christmas day! These planes might not be super sturdy, but they come in a pack of 24, so you’ll have plenty of extras on hand!
The theming of this game could not be more adorable, and we love that it’s simple enough for even young kids to enjoy. Looking for more game suggestions? Check out some of our favorites (sorted by age) here!
