I have a bunch of stuff stashed in a bag, but am not sure how it will be distributed (some for our Advent calendar, some for stocking).

Some of what I have:
Fun Japanese erasers (really cute and detailed food themes, etc., and PVC free)
Christmas pencils
Those pencils that have several different points in different colors...you pull one color out by the point and then can push it down in through the top to switch colors (there are like 7-8 different colors). Clear as mud LOL?)
Silly Putty
Temporary Christmas tattoos-likely will be used in Advent calendar so that the kids can have their tattoos on for the various holiday parades we attend
Christmas stickers (probably for Advent Calendar)
Those foam capsule thingies that you soak in water and an animal shaped sponge comes out...DS loves these in the Advent calendar each year for whatever reason.
Those little towel/washcloth things that are like hard cardboard until you put them in the tub.

Mostly for stocking:
CDs
Balsa wood plane
deflated Gertie ball for DD (2 yo)
Doll diaper for 2 year old's new doll
hairclips and accessories for 2 year old DD
Playmobil guy with charcoal grill for 4.5 year old DS
some new art stuff
Playmobil person with bike and bikestand (I think this will fit in DS's stocking)
toothbrushes for each
DS requested "mints with a sliding door" last year and has requested them again this year.
Usually a book for each
Ornament for each

DS1 and DD:
Yo-yo ball
DVD
Slinky
water bottle

DS2:
magnetic people thing I found at TJMaxx
maybe a book?
water bottle

For 5 year old boy:

-Small jar of fancy stuffed green olives (yes, he will eat them/loves them even though mama won't!)
-Some pens and colored pencils
-pear and orange
-$1 stretch gloves that he likes to make puppets out of, several pairs.
-Chocolate truffles
-Candy canes/candy sticks
-paperback book or 3. We have a lot of gently used ones to pick from.
-Koolaid packets to make playdoh with. He has been asking for some koolaid to make play dough with like they have at school for some time.

None of his actual gifts fit in his stocking this year (last year I could stick cars, train cars, and dollhouse accessories in there). He is getting a big hardback book about how things work, a bunch of legos, an inexpensive telescope and a DVD. He will also get baseball shoes under the tree if I can find them. They start playing here at the end of February. So the stocking stuffers are all going to be very low cost things this year, instead of including the larger ($ wise) gift items like they have before.
