Unique Themes for Children's Christmas Stockings

Christmas is coming and soon it will be time to make stockings for our children. Wouldn't it be nice to do something different this year? You can create a themed Christmas stocking that your child will enjoy and have fun with the tiny treasures for days and weeks after Christmas. A themed stocking can be fun especially if your child has a special interest.

One thing that is a lot of fun about Christmas stockings is to gift wrap every item in the stocking. Gift wrap them using different colored paper to make the stocking look colorful and creative. You can put tiny stick-on bows or ribbon on them and even notes from Santa.

There are many themes you can select from. Here are some ideas that will be popular, some with girls and some with boys, and others with either a girl or a boy! The best idea for the perfect theme is that it should be something that your child enjoys doing all the time, their favorite hobby or their favorite thing. Christmas is the perfect time to really treat everyone in your family, especially your children.

Cars. V-rrooom! Most little boys (and bigger ones) love cars. A fun Christmas stocking would be centered on cars. You can get them miniature toy cars or even a remote control car for their Christmas stocking. Perhaps even a flip book of pictures of antique or collectable cars. There are many items offered by some of the popular cars, such as Porsche like caps, key chains or t-shirts that could make great Christmas stocking items.

Dress Up. What little girl doesn't want to look pretty? This is a fun Christmas stocking to do for your little girl who is a bit of a glamour girl. Fill their Christmas stocking with inexpensive lipsticks and jingly bracelets and necklaces that they can play dress up with. A pair of rhinestone studded sunglasses would be perfect for the movie star look. You could also include a disposable camera to take some pictures of your favorite glamour girl in her new looks.
