Stocking Stuffer Ideas:

It is so much fun waking up to a stocking filled with goodies for Christmas! In our home, we try to make it fun, enjoyable, healthy, and focused on the birth of Jesus!! It reminds me of that poem about Saint Nicholas....

"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care....."

By Clement Clarke Moore (1823)

It is fun to read about who Saint Nicholas was along with opening gifts from stockings!

The first gift our family unwraps is a wrapped baby Jesus from a small stocking that we hang from the Christmas Tree!
