Inside: 25 no-junk stocking stuffers your toddler will love
Sometimes coming up with holiday gifts to give your toddler is easier than figuring out what to put in their stocking!
When my kids were really young, I struggled with finding little gifts that would actually fit inside the stocking and that I wouldn’t be wasting money on because they were so cheap they broke in a day.
It’s important to me not to waste money, (as I’m sure it is for you too!) and I didn’t want to spend money on throw away gifts. You know, the ones your kid maybe plays with one time and then never looks at it again!
So when it came time for me to start putting my toddler’s stocking together, I brainstormed a list of as many items as I could think of that a toddler would love and actually use.
So if you’re looking for ideas for what to stuff in your toddler’s stocking, look no further!

Final thoughts
Christmas was magical when I was a little kid and I want it to be like that for my kids too, which is why I like doing traditional things like advent calendars and stocking stuffers.
However I don’t want to spend a lot of money, I don’t want the gifts to fall apart after one use, and I want my kids to genuinely love and use what’s in their stockings.
With this list you’re sure to see your kids eyes light up as they discover what’s inside their stockings on Christmas morning! (Plus these ideas can even be used for preschoolers too!)
You can find most of these on Amazon and so many more cool options to stick in your kid’s stocking! You’ll have tons of choices your toddler is sure to love!
Happy stuffing!
