TOP 5 STOCKING FILLERS
A stocking full of gifts is one of the simple pleasures of Christmas morning. We’ve picked five of our favourite stocking fillers from this year’s selection, so you can give them a gift that makes them smile all day and beyond. After all, it’s the little things that count
#1
A cracker with a difference
Finally, a Christmas cracker with something other than a miniature screwdriver set or tiny pack of cards inside. This luxury cracker from Molton Brown features three indulgent hand and body products in the ever-popular Pink Pepperpod scent, all beautifully wrapped and ready to pull – and not a rubbish joke or flimsy paper hat in sight.
#2
For the dapper gent
Shaving accessories make great stocking fillers for men, but step away from the usual foam-and-razor-blades combo this year and opt for Mr Natty shave oil instead. A few drops of this stuff make for a perfectly smooth, irritation-free shave, plus it smells great too.
#3
Power up on the go
We’ve all been there. You’re out and about and your phone’s battery is depleting. Panic rises as you see that little bar descend into the red, and let’s not even talk about when it runs out of juice completely. Save someone from having to face this horror ever again with the Happy Jackson portable charger, otherwise known as a mobile lifesaver.
#4
Nano-ho-ho-ho
Keep hands busy over the holidays with this construction set from Nanoblock, where a jumble of tiny building blocks eventually come together to form a mini model of Father Christmas. Fun and educational, this puzzle helps develop three-dimensional thinking, problem solving skills and creative play.
#5
Larger stocking required
At 500g, this slab of chocolate is one serious stocking filler. Decorated penguin selfie-style, it’s a fun festive gift for all the family, if you can resist not keeping it all for yourself. Delicious, and guaranteed to put a smile on someone’s face this Christmas.
