Kids & Kaboodles: Stocking Stuffers for Kids and Babies 2017


Finally we’ve got a stocking stuffers guide for the little ones – from tiny tots celebrating their first few Christmases to kids that are just on the cusp of tweenagehood. Here are some of my favourite stocking stuffer ideas for children, toddlers, and babies!

Zamboni Night Lights – $19.99 @ West Coast Kids
Two things are timelessly true: Kids like a little light in their life at night, and the zamboni is one of the highlights of any hockey game for the little ones. These sweet nightlights are great for any tykes with dreams of making it to the big leagues, or even just for adding a little touch of Canada’s fave game to your baby’s room. Best of all, they come in all of the Canadian teams!

Disney Princess Princess Bucket

Disney Princess 8-Piece Lip Smacker Bucket – $9.99 @ Walmart
Lip Smackers plus Disney = every little girl’s fantasy! This perfect pairing of sweet-tasting lip balms and your little girl’s favourite princesses makes a fab stocking stuffer, with this cute set containing 8 different balms inspired by classic Disney heroines. Indulge in Tea Party Treats with Belle or Vanilla Sparkle with Cinderella. Every tube unlocks a new festive flavour to inspire her imagination!

Zing Spin Circuits – $14.99 @ Mastermind Toys
Spinners are the big obsession this year for kids of all ages, and masters of ‘Every Day Play’ toys Zing have got a really fun design they’ll flip (or um, spin) over. Designed for kids 4+, simply rotate this three-blade gadget and bring up 1 of 20 preprogrammed LED light patterns. Not only are they stunning on their own, you can stack ’em with the included double spin pin, allowing you to create truly dazzling light shows – perfect for those long winter nights.

Baby Dove Baby Essentials Gift Set – $16.99 @ Walmart and Jean Coutu
Expecting and new parents alike will flip for Dove’s super gentle, super nourishing lineup of baby care products. From their rich moisture tip to toe wash and baby bath bar to their super sensitive wipes, each of these products on their own makes a lovely stocking stuffer. Or you can nab ’em all together in this great value set that works equally well as a new baby gift!

Duracell AA

Duracell Batteries – Prices Vary @ Mass Market Retailers Everywhere
The absolute WORST mistake you can make as a parent come Christmas morning is to have your kids unwrap a gift or get a present from Santa that requires batteries…and you don’t have any kicking around the house. Save yourself some strife and add Duracell’s legendary coppertop batteries to your stocking stuffer shopping list. The kids may not play with them directly, but these high performing batteries will unlock everything from their animated plushies to their new gaming system.

Djeco ILO307 Felt Brushes – $28.99 / set
Have a budding artist in the household? Unleash their creativity with these incredible markers that deliver beautiful pigmentation and multiple uses! With both a pointy and a paintbrush-inspired end, you can create really stunning photos with shading that rivals a pencil crayon or pencil. Plus, ILO307 also sells some really cool colouring kits that are basically a precursor to painting by numbers. Simply follow the steps and your children can create gorgeous masterpieces with fun themes like under the sea or cityscapes.

Embellished Cat Headband – $19.95 @ Gap Kids
It’s hard to say no to something as cute as this sparkly cat headband for toddlers (it also comes in a fun animal print too, for your little wildcat). Perfect for decking out her favourite holiday party dress or inspiring make-believe adventures around the house, toddlers and preschoolers alike will soon have a new favourite accessory to don after the holidays.

Nano Drone Mini RC UFO – $24.99 @ Showcase
Drones are still a hot wish list item for lots of kids, but if you’re not ready to splurge on a heavy duty one, this affordable model is a great alternative. Kids will love learning crazy aerial tricks and showing off to their friends as they flip their UFO drone upside down and all around, particularly with its cool built-in flashing LED lights. Best of all, the remote doubles as a storage / carrying case, making this a portable piece of entertainment they can tote anywhere.

Koala Baby 3-Pack Christmas Rattles – $14.99 @ Babies “R” Us
A festive treat that’ll keep the little tykes busy – that sounds like a perfect stocking stuffer for babies to me! This trio of soft, plushy rattles is designed to be held by the tiniest of hands. With a reindeer, Santa, and penguin design to keep your baby busy, they’ll love making little noises with these high-impact toys.

L.O.L. Surprise! Charm Fizz – $3.99 @ Hudson’s Bay
Kids really love ‘unboxing’ things it turns out, and L.O.L. Dolls is a brand that pretty much seems devoted to making the unwrapping experience as much fun as the playing one. This particular entry into the series is extra fun as your kids dunk their fizzy ball into the tub or a bowl of water to reveal three surprises in one little package – including an accessory for their favourite dolls!
