The reject shop! My kids got book lights for a recent trip to qld, $2.50 each big hit. Small findaword, activity, soduku books, pencils, hair ties, tennis balls, feathery pens, notebooks.

My 6 year old boy is getting chocolates, a mini transformer, sunglasses and a rashie. That's all I can remember. Might throw it a toothbrush too. For an 11 year old I guess maybe make up or bath body items from The Body Shop. Maybe some fun jewellery or new swimmers?

I can't help with boy ideas. Don't do boys in our family LOL. Poor DH and FIL are the only boys. But my girls like Smiggle stuff. They have erasable highlihters there that my girls think are good too. DD#1 likes Typo stuff as well. They all want nail polish from Gloss that changes colour with your mood. There is some nice things in gloss that don't cost much. Little handbags, earphones with a bit of bling on them, hairties etc.

DS 7's stocking will have A small nano blocks kit (a Santa actually) A knights activity book (stickers, craft ideas) A packet of coloured pencils Plus the 2 things he has asked for which is a snorkel and mask and a DVD and a rashie and speedos but I guess you are after ideas for more filler type things than main presents No big girls in our house but smuggle stuff, lip gloss, etc I guess.
