The stockings were hung by the chimney with care…
…And they were filled to the brim with things that made the fam go, “HECK YEAAAA!”
Kels here! What? That’s not how the rhyme goes?! We’re rewriting it for the purpose of this post because today we’ve got the ultimate stocking stuffer round up for you! It’s actually two gift guides in one — 20 Stocking Stuffers for the Kiddos + 15 Stocking Stuffers for Women & Men.
Most of the items that we’re featuring are the amazing price point of around $15! So feel free to load up on all the stuffers your stockings will allow. (And then some!) After all, it’s the little things that make the holidays so special for those around us. It’s actually somewhat hard to find enough worthy gifts to fill those huge socks, and over the years I’ve found that a good combination is the key. A mixture of practical things you’ll use, paired with fun surprises you may not expect.
I hope this list helps you happily stuff those stockings, and maybe saves you a couple hours wandering the aisles of the superstore. Happy stuffing!
Gifts Under $15: Stocking Stuffers For The Entire Family
20 Stocking Stuffers For The Kiddos
Nuby Sippy Cups
These things are amazing. They’re leak-proof, easy to grip, and can be used by babies starting at 6 months, but they work into the toddler years! A house with young kids can never have too many of these, right?!
Scratch Art Animal Masks
Masks, but interactive! Kids can scratch off the surface to reveal beautiful, bright colors. A great gift for the imagination!
Felt Food Basket
I don’t know any kid who doesn’t love to play chef! This food basket is great for pretend play, and it goes perfectly with any kitchen set your kiddos have.
Marshmallow Snowmen
So cute as an addition for hot chocolate! Nothing beats sipping on a delicious drink with a little something sweet to cozy up with.
Etsy Name Crayons
How adorable and unique are these personalized name crayons? I love the cute box they come in, too, and the fact that these crayons are made from non-toxic materials.
Indoor Snowballs
Over $15 but so worth it. I first saw these a few weeks ago at my favorite little kid’s boutique in Chicago, and they were already flying off the shelf even though it was literally only a couple days after Halloween! Love these because you can bring the outdoor snowball fight fun indoors on those unbearably cold winter days, and these are safe and don’t make a mess.
Dot a Dot Markers
For ages 2-100, these dot a dot markers are fun for all ages and a great thing to throw into your kids’ stockings this year. I love having all types of arts and crafts on hand for my kiddos…you honestly can never have too many!
Wikkistix
This is such a fun and unique toy! We first discovered these at our favorite little lunch spot near where we live in Wilmette, IL. Instead of kids menus with crayons, the owner hands out packages of these Wikkistix for the kids to play with and create different shapes and designs while we wait for our lunch to arrive at our table.
World’s Smallest Walkie Talkies
Your kiddos will love transmitting important messages and secret codes to each other from up to 150 feet away with these pint-sized walkie-talkies! My kids got these recently as a gift and they are SO fun and keep them occupied for hours.
Hatchimals
Hatchimals for the win! I wish someone could explain to me what it is about any toy that opens with a surprise in the middle. It boggles my mind that my kids are STILL obsessed with this phenomenon after 3-4 years….but here we are. And I’m gonna keep getting them because of the enormous smile it brings to their cute little faces! If your kids like Hatchimals, also check out these Reindeer Surprise Balls!
Thermal Socks
Anyone else feel like their dryer EATS the matching pair to your family’s socks? It’s honestly astounding to me. So….this gift is a given. What’s great about these is how warm they are; perfect for playing in the snow!
Kids Sunglasses Collection
May not be in season right now, but this is the type of gift they’ll always need! Plus, don’t we all have that Spring vacation already on the brain?
Personalized Snowman Ornament
Davey and I started a tradition the year Tripp was born that each year we would get our kids a new personalized ornament for the tree with their name and the year on it. These adorable snowman ornaments made the cut this year – aren’t they cute?!
I Spy Little Board Books
Love these books! Not only are they small, but they keep those kiddos busy. These are a staple for us to bring when we go out to dinner with the kids or travel on a plane somewhere.
Favorite Character Bandaids
You might think this is a weird stocking stuffer idea. But my kids LOVE putting on specific bandaids with their favorite characters if they get a little cut or scrape, and these are the perfect gift to add to the mix! Or, let’s be honest, even sometimes when they ‘hurt themselves’ but really….they didn’t and just want a bandaid. Ha!
Mini Cupcake Puzzle
Love this mini 8″ x 8″ cupcake puzzle! It’ll fit perfectly in their stockings, and puzzles always are a fun way to keep those little minds busy and entertained for an extended period of time. This ABC Puzzle is great, too!
Kid’s DIY necklace
This kids DIY alphabet necklace is SO adorable; it’s a treat for kids of all ages. Love the little emoji beads!
Travel Tik Tac Toe Game
Another fun knick knack for the kiddos. I love playing tick tack toe with my kids at restaurants, and this is such a fun way to do it vs using paper and a pen! Easily fits into luggage, your purse, or even your kid’s backpacks to come along wherever you may need it.
Wet Brush Mini
This is my personal favorite hairbrush I use myself….but in mini size for your little ones. This brush is the BEST for de-tangling hair after bath time.
135 Piece Glow In The Dark Stars
Bring a starry night indoors! Kids love to stick these on walls, and they make bedtime a lot more fun.
15 Stocking Stuffers For Her + Him
Gold Antler Glasses
2 ADORABLE antler glasses for $15 – can’t beat that! One drink for you, and one for your significant other. Can’t beat that either. 😉
Bee Pouch
Obviously one for her, but isn’t this so sweet?! You can hold anything from makeup to pencils in this.
Reindeer Games Inflatable Ring Toss
Okay, this is just hysterical and would be so fun for the entire family to play! Plus, The Today Show featured it, so you know it’s good!
Grateful Jar
The sweetest sentiment in a gift. Everyone writes what they’re grateful for and puts it into the jar. This is a cute tradition to start with your family every year!
Garden Mug
Aren’t these mugs so incredibly beautiful?! I want an entire cabinet of these. Also loving this Insight Mug.
“The Sun And Her Flowers” by Rupi Kaur
Rupi Kaur is an incredible poet and her books are inspirational and insightful. They’re small too – the perfect size for a stocking! This is her newest book and would make a great stuffer for any book lover.
Stainless Steel Straws
Every household needs these! Save the planet, one sip at a time.
Avocado Huggers
THESE ARE GENIUS. Practical, and for the whole family.
Worlds Greatest Dad Jokes
…Guaranteed to make knee-slapping and corny jokes happen on Christmas morning.
Campfire Games Would You Rather
Whether you’re sitting around the campfire, or your fireplace at home, this is the perfect game to pull out when having a cozy night in!
Eloise Tortoise Hair Clip Set
These are AMAZING. They’re bright, colorful, hold a lot of hair, and perfect for daily wear or even doing hair. If you’re shopping for someone who loves accessories, also consider getting them a headband!
Sneaker Cleaning Set
Great for him OR her, because all those stylin’ kicks need some cleaning!
Pick Up Sticks Game
Anyone else love Pick-Up-Sticks growing up?! This is a great game to have on hand and is a nostalgic staple of family fun.
Shower Beer Holder
….For anyone who loves to say, “Beer Me.” Also holds normal drinks like La Croix, might I add. 😉
Fruit Infusing Ice Balls
With these balls, you can easily give water a refreshing burst of flavor. They’re fun to make, look great in drinks, and are perfect for entertaining.
