The men on your list will love seeing this grilling spice set in their stockings. It comes with five different spice blends including a fresh bay spice that’s great for seafood along with a pepper habanero blend that’s delicious on wings and steaks. You can give the whole spice set to one lucky guy or split it up and stick one jar in each stocking.

This jerky set is another great gift for meat lovers. It contains twenty different sticks of jerky in eight delicious flavors including barbecue pineapple pork, zesty jalapeno, teriyaki, and garlic and herb. This jerky is gluten-free, MSG-free, and low in calories and trans-fat, so even though it tastes indulgent, it’s still a healthy choice.

Dry winter air is tough on the skin, so the men in your life could definitely use this hand cream from O’Keeffe’s. It’s thick and moisturizing without being greasy and can fix up rough, cracked hands in no time. 

New York Times Crossword Puzzle Book

If your dad or brother loves doing crossword puzzles in the newspaper, then he’ll love this crossword puzzle book from The New York Times. It features medium-difficulty crossword puzzles that will give him a little bit of a challenge but won’t be too frustrating to solve. 

Field Notes Memo Book

These memo books from Field Notes are great for doodling or jotting down ideas. They have beautiful illustrations of national parks on their front covers and make a really nice gift for nature lovers.

Stocking Stuffer Ideas For Kids 

Not sure which toys and gifts to get your kids this Christmas? Here are five children’s gift ideas to get your shopping list started.

Christmas Wind-Up Toys

We used to love wind-up toys when we were little, so we bet your kids will love these Christmas-themed toys! They come in a pack of twelve and feature beloved holiday characters like Rudolph and Frosty the Snowman. You can put just one toy in each stocking or a few. Either way, your kids will be playing with these toys all Christmas morning! 

Blank Comic Book and Drawing Pens

If your kids like to draw, then they’ll be thrilled to see these comic books and drawing pens in their stockings! These comic books have four different blank templates that your kids can use to create their own superhero stories. The drawing pens are specifically designed for graphic novelists and feature smear-proof ink and precise brush tips. These gifts will definitely help your kids bring their artistic visions to life!

Slime has been all the rage for the past few years, so it’s a great choice for the kids on your list. This can of galaxy slime has streaks of purple, blue, green, and iridescent gold. Your kids will have hours of fun kneading, squeezing, and playing with it. And best of all, this slime is made of high-quality, nonstick materials. What’s better than not having to worry that your kitchen counter is a mess?!

Mini Jenga Game

Jenga is a super fun game and a hit with kids. The object of the game is to pull as many wooden blocks from the tower as you can without tipping it over. The regular version of the game is too big to carry around, let alone fit in a stocking. But this mini-version is small enough to fit in a pocket or backpack. Best of all, your kids can bring it with them to school or on playdates with friends. 

Joke Book

This book is one of the best collections of jokes for kids. It was written with children ages seven to ten in mind and features hundreds of hilarious tongue twisters, knock-knock jokes, and puns.
