This year is our first year at home for Christmas. We’ve either visited my parents or the my husband’s parents for Christmas ever since we got married. But now that we are staying home, I’m quickly realizing that there are a lot of responsibilities moms take on for the holidays!
One of my favorite traditions is filling the stocking on Christmas Eve so that when the kids wake up in the morning, it’s like Santa filled their stocking. And this assignment has now fallen to me.
Now don’t get me wrong, I am super excited! I even sewed our family a set of stockings (started last year, finished a few weeks ago). So this is a big deal to me.
But what to put in the stockings? Now that’s a completely different subject. And since both of our kids are toddlers, it’s a little bit tricky because I can’t just fill them with candy and lotion.
But I’ve found a lot of great ideas specifically for toddlers, and I wanted to share them with you today, in case you’re now in the “Santa” position like I am.
Now obviously you can’t fit all of these things into your child’s stocking, but hopefully with this many ideas you’ll find some you like.

Thanks for the list! I have a newly 2 year old and I think she’d like the do a dot markers. The theme is art and coloring for her at the moment, we got her an aqua doodle mat so far. Merry Christmas!
