Stocking Stuffers for Kids 2025 — Fun, Easy, and Affordable Ideas
It’s almost Christmas morning — and we all know the magic of the stockings! 🎄
Stocking stuffers are one of my favorite holiday traditions. They’re the perfect mix of fun, practical, and thoughtful, and they make Christmas morning even more exciting for kids.
Whether you’re looking for small toys, creative activities, or useful everyday items, this guide has the best stocking stuffers for kids in 2025 — from Amazon, Target, and other family favorites. I’ve rounded up easy ideas you can grab online so you can spend less time shopping and more time enjoying the season.
Popular Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Kids (2025 Edition)
These ideas are simple, affordable, and guaranteed to get big smiles!
I love to mix a few fun toys with useful little things they’ll use every day.
Amazon Stocking Stuffers for Kids
Amazon is my go-to for easy, last-minute shopping — especially when I can order everything in one box!
I’ve put together my favorite Amazon stocking stuffers for kids in one place — including toys, art supplies, accessories, and more.
Shop my Amazon list here:
Flashlights (these don't have the dangerous button batteries like many flashlights do!)
Calculator (felt unusual, but literally both my kids have played with this all year!)
Moon Ball (moon balls are a classic, my son's favorite "catch" ball, and this one glows!)
Small Puzzles (we have a few of these in a tin, they are perfect!)
Dog Man Hot Dog Card Game (IYKYK)
Card Game (you can split amongst kids)
Eye Found It Game (easy game for probably 4+ and fun for all!)
Invisible Ink Pens (my kids both love these!)
Mini Notebooks (mini notebooks and pens can keep my kids entertained forever at restaurants, etc!)
Tooth Brush (we love these! Lots of colors. Take out of the box for the stocking!)
Craft Supplies:
Target Stocking Stuffers for Kids
Target always nails it with affordable, festive options.
The Bullseye’s Playground section (aka the Target Dollar Spot) is full of treasures this time of year!
You’ll also find small games, books, and toys that fit perfectly in a stocking.
Shop my Target list here:
Band-Aids (you know they love it!)
LEGOS (the small packs in the bags are the BEST STEAL! great quality and inexpensive!)
Hot Wheels Color Reveals
Surprise Balls
Hot Wheels
Play-Doh
Lip Balm
Puffy Stickers (these are so fun for toddlers and up!)
