Stocking Stuffers for Boys (what's in my boys' stockings)

I always have the hardest time with stocking stuffers; I don't want to spend too much money, but I don't want to fill them up with candy or dollar store junk either. It doesn't help that their stockings are HUGE either, which is why this year I am using cinch sacks, which are part of their gifts...and just filling them!

My 6yo (C) and 4yo (Z) are getting basically the same things in their stockings this year.

I always find neat stocking stuffers in the clearance aisles; I split the crocs decor between the 3 boys.

And at drugstores (the top right is a holder for playing cards), everything was about $1 each.

I also buy things in bulk and split them up....these were part of a 20 pack of hot wheels, the head lamps and ninjango pens came in a 3 pack at Costco, the water bottles came in a pack of 5 from woot.com, and the marble racers were a 3 pack on another deal site (maybe Totsy.com)

Little Lego kits are always a hit!


Books!

C really wanted an electric train this year, but we have a wooden set already, so I got him this battery powered train to go with it.

Little c (2yo) got a few of the same things as his big brothers and a few more items geared towards smaller guys. The fishing set was from Amazon, he is always pretending to fish with anything that resembles a fishing line.

C is also getting scotch tape and aluminum foils his bag....sounds crazy, but I can bet those will be his favorite things!

I had big plans to make some stocking stuffers this year, but I guess that will be saved for Easter Baskets! I won't lie either, I always over buy and end up putting stuff aside for another holiday. These bags are FULL and I have a few more GREAT deals coming in the mail!  So I'll consider myself as having a head start on Easter ;)
