Stocking Stuffer Ideas – Holiday Gift Guide

Pocket Etch A Sketch

A Pocket Etch A Sketch is an awesome retro stocking stuffer idea.

Kids will love fidgeting with this toy from past generations.

It can keep them entertained for hours.

And it’s such a great nostalgic gift, that you could even give it to a friend as a quirky gift in a fun Secret Santa exchange.

Doodle Pad

Get these 16 Mini Scratch Art Boards with wooden stylus for kids who love drawing and coloring.

Personally, I love to stock up on arts and crafts supplies at Christmas so they have lots to keep themselves busy during the winter months.

These scratch pads are great for long car rides or waits in waiting rooms.

SmartGames Cube Puzzler

One of our favorite stocking stuffer ideas for kids is a puzzle or brain teaser.

Kids of all ages will love this 3D colorful cube puzzle with 80 different challenges ranging from easy to expert.

This portable game is travel-friendly so it’s perfect to toss in your bag for road trips and other vacations.

SmartGames Cube Puzzler allows kids to use spatial insight, problem-solving and planning skills.

Mini 3×3 Puzzle Cube

A classic toy just smaller – Mini 3×3 Puzzle Cubes!

These small toys are perfect for stocking stuffer ideas.

And stocking stuffer ideas for families with lots of kids are the best when you can buy them in a bundle. These come with 6 in a pack, so they’d also be great if you were making gift bags for a Christmas party or friends from school.

Scramble and twist, turn, and rotate to solve the puzzle.

Trouble Grab & Go Game

A classic board game that is compact and mobile!

All in one game board makes storage easy.

This Trouble Grab & Go is a complete compact version of the original game.

I love to give my kids physical games that will pull them away from their electronic devices.

We think classic board games are always a great gift idea.

Joke Book for Kids

The Big Book of Silly Jokes for Kids: 800+ Jokes! will keep the whole family laughing.

This is an awesome stocking stuffer gift idea to get reluctant readers reading. It can feel like less work to read a few jokes than embark on a new chapter book.

Joke books are fun for road trips or evenings at home with the family.

I love that this collection is illustrated collection and the jokes get more challenging with each chapter.

The author of this book, Carole P. Roman, has written over 50 children’s books. You can find them all here on Amazon.

Luxurious Lip Gloss

Teenage girls and their moms all want to find a sweet new lip gloss in their stocking or under the tree.

If you’re looking for a simple stocking stuffer or Secret Santa gift exchange, you can’t go wrong with a lovely lip gloss.

We love this BareMinerals: Mineralist Lip Gloss Balm.

It’s a hybrid lip gloss and nourishing balm packed with cold-pressed fruit oils for sheer color, glossy shine and the hydrating feel of a balm.

Cozy Earmuffs

Here’s another classic winter gift idea that’s got to be on any complete list of stocking stuffer ideas… Earmuffs!

Kids and teenagers will love cute and cozy earmuffs.

We love giving our kids and teens fun and practical gifts that they will actually use.

So top off their stocking with a pair of cute earmuffs to help keep your kids warm.

Scrunchies

Scrunchies are the perfect stocking stuffer for tween and teenage girls!

Grab this set of pretty scrunchies for a super low price.

The colors and fabric are soft and subtle and lovely to wear on your wrist or in your hair.

Our teenage girls love having a huge collection of scrunchies. You can never have too many.

Cute Flash Drive

Share digital files and photos with friends and loved ones with this Unicorn USB Flash Drive.

I have to get these for my girls.

They will love them!

There are so many fun styles of flash drives available these days.

If you have boys or girls who aren’t into unicorns, perhaps they’d like these cool Cute Space Rabbit USB Flash Drives.

These days kids have to take homework to and from school on flash drives, so this makes homework even more fun.

Password Book

A brilliant gift idea for tweens, teens, and adults is a password book keeper to help them stay organized.

I especially love the idea of getting your kids to write down all their passwords in a book that you can see so that you’re able to access any of their accounts.

If you get kids started sharing their account passwords with you at a young age, it’s easier to keep it going into their teen years.

Also, the journals, calendars, pill boxes from RE-Focus, The Creative Office are perfect for affordable and practical gifts especially for boys or girls with ADHD.

Funny Socks

Does your teen love gaming?

Get them this fun pair of socks that lets them express themselves.

It may drive you crazy that your teen spends too much time gaming, but this gift is a good natured way to make light of it.

These socks are great for teenage boys or girls. They fit sizes 6 to 12.

They’re comfy, stretchy, breathable and soft.

Headache Relief

If you’re looking for a small (but life-changing) gift idea for women (or men), give them headache relief with a XR 4″ Neck & Headache Chirp Wheel.

This clever little wheel has specially shaped nodes that rest at the base of your skull as you lay back.

The resting applied pressure provides suboccipital release to melt away tension while the Spinal Canalâ„¢ protects the spine from pressure.

If you go to a gift exchange party where you play a White Elephant Game, I bet everyone will be trying to steal this gift!
 

Luxury Natural Soap

A lovely little gift for women is a bar of natural soap.

A lovely smelling soap is always at the top of our list of stocking stuffer ideas for adults. It’s practical and pampering at the same time.

We recently tested out and loved this Lavender Goat Milk Soap that is organic, plant-based, and produced in small batches in the USA.

Leggings for Lounging

Roll up a pair of leggings and you have the perfect stocking stuffer.

Personally I love wearing comfy leggings as loungewear around the house. You can find ridiculously comfortable leggings from various companies such as Luluroe.

Another fantastic place to get comfy leggings is MyLala leggings.

You can get super soft leggings in regular and plus women’s sizes as well as babies, kids, and teens.

Useful stocking stuffer ideas for women and teen girls are new sports bras and comfortable underwear.

This brand was developed to support women’s daily activities at home, in the office, at the gym and out on the town. Their innovative fabrics with built-in botanical protection against stains and odors.

Women often tend to neglect shopping for these necessities for themselves, so tossing some new items into the stocking is a smart gift idea that she’ll be glad to have.

Dad Stocking Stuffer Ideas

This joke book for Dads is a fun stocking stuffer idea for fathers.

Whether or not he’s a regular joker, he’ll get a kick out of these jokes.

Everyone will be laughing as Dad passes on these jokes all year long.

Get ready to laugh (or groan).

Manly Scented Natural Soap

Here’s one of our new favorite Dad stocking stuffer ideas… Dr. Squatch Men’s Soap.

You can get a bundle of three scents: Pine Tar, Cedar Citrus, Bay Rum right here on Amazon.

He’ll appreciate that these are handmade in the USA with organic oils.

Rugged Roots Beard Oil

Do you have a bearded man on your list?

Get him Rugged Roots Bear Oil to keep his beard soft.

It nourishes dry and scratchy facial hair and prevent dandruff, aka beard-druff and split ends. Also, you can use it as an aftershave to help with ingrown hairs and prevent razor burn.

Warm cozy socks are always a great stocking stuffer for everyone. A list of stocking stuffer ideas couldn’t be complete without this classic gift idea.

We found these super cute Christmas fuzzy socks on Amazon.

They have several holiday designs to choose from.

These socks have 2% spandex and come with a premium quality gift box.

Charging Cable

Everyone can use a new charging cable… especially one that doesn’t get tangled.

This is one of those modern stocking stuffer ideas that works for almost everybody over 8 years old!

Ventev Alloy Apple Lightning Cables are both stylish and functional. Because of the aluminum casing, these cables don’t tangle or rip. We’ve been using ours for a couple of years without any problems.

Charging cables are fantastic stocking stuffers for tweens, teens and everyone else who needs to keep a device charged.

Workout Gear

Stuff their stockings with workout gear like these Chirp Resistance Bands

Small exercise equipment is awesome for gift exchanges and stocking stuffers.

Everyone can use new fitness gear.

These new Chirp resistance bands are a new and comfortable set of soft, woven elastic resistance bands made of 80% polyester and 20% latex silk.

PopSockets

PopSockets are expanding smartphone and tablet stands that are all the rage with the kids, but they’re useful for everyone.

PopSockets are great for enhancing the grip and capabilities of your phone. Pop, tilt, wrap, prop, collapse, grip, repeat.

They provide a secure grip for texting, calling, photos, and selfies and they’re compatible with all smartphones and tablets.

Works in landscape and portrait modes for watching videos, web surfing, texting, gaming, group photos, FaceTime, and Skype.

Using a PopSocket allows your hand to relax while securely holding your phone – never drop your phone again from lost grip.

These are available in a good variety of colors & designs.

Phone Holder

Everyone who drives needs a Dashboard Car Phone Mount. This is one of those small stocking stuffer ideas that can really serve a good purpose.

It’s so important that you’re not picking up your phone while you’re driving.

So if you have a driver in the family who doesn’t yet have a cell phone holder, toss a mobile phone holder in their stocking.
 

Tea Infuser

Toss a bag of loose leaf tea and a tea infuser in his or her stocking.

Brewing a cup of loose leaf tea is simple with an individual Tea Infuser.

When you’re just making tea for one, you’ll love having one of these.

Take a moment just for you with the infuser that’s made for one. If you’re looking for unique stocking stuffer ideas for adults, a new tea infuser will do the trick.
 

Holiday Lip Balm

You can never have enough lip balm.

I always put a lip balm in every Christmas stocking. I think it’s one of the easiest small stocking stuffer ideas… you can grab them at the last minute at the grocery store.

And I love how these Holiday flavored Chapstick come in festive flavours: Cake Batter, Pumpkin Pie, and Candy Cane.

What a sweet way to keep dry lips at bay this winter.
