Do you already have your kid’s stockings hung by the fireplace?  I don’t, as a matter of fact I still need to grab my kids new stockings, AND the stocking stuffers for kids.  Gosh, what am I doing.  I totally spaced it until just a few minutes ago while I was checking out the GiftForYouNow.com website.  They have an excellent selection of stockings, personalized ornaments, and more.  Which also got me to think about what I am going to put in the kids stocking their year.  Here are ten top tips for choosing stocking stuffers.

10 Tips For Choosing Stocking Stuffers For Kids

I am horrible when it comes to the stockings.  I pack them full of goodies, but I wait until last-minute to get everything.  NOT THIS YEAR!  

Here are ten top tips for choosing stocking stuffers for kids.

  • Pay attention to the small stuff – Maybe your child has taken on drawing, painting fingernails, putting hair in pony tail, etc.  If you haven’t been paying attention start now.  There is still enough time left to choose great stocking stuffers.
  • Age – Be sure to consider their age.  I have a 16-year-old, and all my other children are younger.  It’s not fair to keep getting her kiddie stuff if she really wants things like hair care products. 
  • Needs – Is there anything your child needs, that you don’t buy on a regular basis they might like?  I always try to toss in a toothbrush, candles for my older daughter, and a Christmas ornament. 
  • Electronics – I know you probably don’t want to put another iPad in their stocking, lol.  What electronics do your kids have – cell phone, tablet, computer, laptop, etc.?  Do they need any extras to care for them – personalized cases, cleaning supplies, etc.
  • Makeup – I don’t normally like to get my younger girls makeup, but if I am ever running short on ideas I can toss in some clear lipgloss or something.  They’ll have fun, and I don’t have to worry about lipstick all over my hosue, lol.  My oldest daughter LOVES makeup in her stocking.
  • Books – Everyone loves books, and if they don’t,  more the reason to grab them a few books.
  • DVD’s – Maybe they have a favorite DVD they want you to get.
  • iTunes Gift Card – If your children like music as much as mine do then they’re going to love an iTunes gift card. 
  • Small crafts – My two younger daughters love to craft, draw, color, and anything else artsy and craft you allow them to.  Their favorite things are the crafing and art products.
  • Christmas Ornament – Every year I try to give the kids something personalized, and have found Christmas Ornaments work well.  The kids love them, we can put them on the tree, and when they get older and have their own tree they will remember each one of them and have stories to share with their children.  GiftsForYouNow.com has some AWESOME personalized Christmas Ornaments I want to get for the kids.  For Mattie, I want to get the Personalized Gymnast, Vayda the Personalized Princess Ornament,  Buddy the Personalized Elf Ceramic Ornament, and the other girls I am still trying to choose between a few.   There are some great personalized ornaments if you’re looking for a fun personal way to fill your stockings.

While I was on GiftsForYouNow.com I found my sisters Christmas gift!  Finally, gosh I cannot belive I didn’t think of this before, but she always wears an apron when she cooks.  Since she is always cooking it only sounds right that she get two aprons!  Yepie, sorry I just wanted to toss that in there and let you know they have some cool stuff.  If you want to check them out you can visit them on GiftForYourShopping.com.
