What are stocking stuffers for? 

Stocking stuffers are those tiny surprises stuffed into Christmas stockings, adding a fun and exciting twist to the holiday morning.

They’re often reserved for kids as gifts that Santa has stuffed in their stockings come Christmas Eve, but why should kids have all the fun? 

What can I put in stocking fillers? 

Stocking stuffers are often smaller, inexpensive treats like lollies, quirky gifts, beauty products and trinkets. The idea is to include items that are small in size but big on cheer!
