Stocking Stuffers for the Entire Family

Stocking Stuffers for the Entire Family

Stocking Stuffers are a great way to include even more goodies into your holiday gift giving.  I love filling my family’s stockings with a variety of gift options.  I like to include a little food goodies so they can snack on while I’m making breakfast, small gadgets, jewelry, games and so much more.  There are lots of great options for the stocking and I’m sharing some of the items I’ll be putting in my family’s stocking this year. I hope you these suggestions helpful.

Nature’s Bakery sent us a whole box of goodies to enjoy for the holidays, including their limited edition Pumpkin Spice Fig Bars.  I’m not a fan of pumpkin so I gave these to my sister but my family loved the other goodies in our box.  I was actually quite surprised how much my kids loved their Brownie Bars.  They even enjoyed the Gluten Free options as well.  My four-year old choose these for snack time at school instead of his usual chips or fruit snacks.  They are perfect for snacking on, for popping in lunch boxes or gifting during the holidays.  You can purchase Nature’s Bakery products online from Amazon.

Who knew that Madeleines were so scrumptious. Donsuemor sent me a few samples of their madeleines to try out and the were so good.  I swear I ate them all in one setting (with some help of course).  There wasn’t an item in this box that I didn’t enjoy.  They all would make wonderful gifts for the holidays and beyond.  I can guarantee you that the receiver would love you for sending them these goodies. Pick these up for holiday parties, stocking stuffer or just to keep in your house.  The sell individually wrapped madeleines making them perfect for gifting.  You can purchase a sampler package on Amazon.

Sugar Bowl Bakery Organic Bakery Bites are the ultimate stocking stuffer for the holidays.  I wish we had some to put in our stockings.  We had the opportunity to review these during the summer and they were great.  The whole family enjoyed these snack and the fact that they’re individually wrapped makes them perfect for gifting.  These are perfect for holiday parties and for your snack pantry.  These snacks are free of preservatives, trans-fat, cholesterol, and have no artificial flavors or colors.

I just love snacking on Jelly Beans.  They are the just the right amount of sugar when I’m looking for a pick me up.  I like keeping a few of these in a zip lock baggie for when we are traveling with the kids because they are easy to eat in the car and they don’t make a lot of mess (as long as the kids don’t spill).  Jelly beans are great for making small treat bags for possible class parties and teacher gifts.  They are also great for stockings.  Gimballs offer a lovely selection to choose from, and I’m sure everyone would love finding a special package of these in their stockings.

Endangered Species Chocolates is the a gift that gives back.  This company is passionate about the environment and their chocolate.  This company is commited to providing chocolate lovers with premium chocolates.  Endangered Species offers 10 percent of net profits to fund habitat and species conservation efforts.  That’s a cause I can certainly get behind.  I was sent the bars and they are perfect for baking.  Check out the Endangered Species website for recipe ideas and stock up on your natural premium chocolates on Amazon.

Growing up in the Caribbean I used to have coconut water all the time when I wanted something refreshing to drink.  As a matter of fact my parent’s only let us have soda during the holiday season.  I don’t drink it that often but once I found out about Coco Joy Kids Flavored Coconut Water I knew it would be something my kids would love.  I like that it’s not loaded with sugar and they like that it tastes delicious.  Coco Joy Kids is a healthier alternative to sugary soft drinks with no added sugar, no preservatives, and no concentrates. Flavors include: Strawberry, Banana, Watermelon and Pineapple, and feature popular characters from Disney’s “Frozen,” Marvel’s “Avengers” and Disney∙Pixar’s “Inside Out.” (Cans: $1.19, Bottles: $1.39)

My kids had the opportunity to try out Natural Twig Colored Pencils a few months ago.  I have to admit these are probably the best colored pencils we’ve ever used.  They are strong and very durable.  I was worried how long they would last and this set has outlasted two regular sets we purchased for the kids and it’s still going strong.  These work just like your regular colored pencils the only difference is, it needs to be sharpened with a knife so it does require adults to sharpen once the point starts to get lower.  These are great for gift giving, and can also be used for decor.  It wouldn’t surprise me if these make it to next summer.  You can purchase these online.

Skin care is very important and as I get older it seems like the problems I skipped as a teenager is catching up to me now.  I’ve been looking for a skin care routine to help me keep my skin looking healthy and beautiful.  Healthy skin is important for men and women of all ages, and this holiday season RENU 28’s all-natural skin gel makes the perfect gift for anyone. Not only will this unique gift help your loved ones look younger and feel better, it also ensures they are properly maintaining their skin.  I am always careful about what products I use on my skin because it’s very sensitive, however since I’ve been using the RENU 28 I haven’t notice any skin irritation at all. With winter upon us I am looking forward to softer skin.
