In our house, the Christmas stocking is one of the most exciting bits of Christmas morning – the kids really do look forward to digging into the stockings that we have had in our family for over twenty years. I’ve always thought that it’s the little bits and pieces that we enjoy the most Christmas; those thoughtful little trinkets that show that we really know the recipient and that somehow feel like the most personal choices.

Having said that, as a parent, filling those stockings isn’t always easy. Like most parents, I will find some little bargains from a pound shop as well as the staples of chocolate coins and socks, but I also like to pop a few little surprises in there as well! But of course, it’s not just about the kids – Christmas stockings are a lovely part of Christmas for all of us, regardless of our age so check out some of our ideas below for some stocking filler ideas for the whole family. Stockings are perfect for miniature presents, so we have been checking out tiny collectable toys, cosmetics and hair products along with little gifts for art fans, fitness fanatics and chocoholics!

We have ideas for the kids and those hard to buy for teens, as well as the grown-ups too. So check out our Christmas Stocking guide to get yourself some inspiration for those little touches for your nearest and dearest.

Kids’ Christmas Stocking Guide Along with an awful lot of children these

days, mine are more than a little bit

obsessed with so-called ‘blind-bags’, and

putting something like this in a stocking

doubles the fun, and the kids will get a

surprise within a surprise. TV advertising,

along with videos on YouTube, have

meant that Cutetitos are one of the

most requested blind-bag toys in our

house, and have been for a year or so. Cutetitos are fantastic fun, and contain a

cute little plush toy, wrapped up in a burrito style plush tortilla wrap. The kids loved

opening their Cutetitos and revealing the super cute little plush toy contained

within the burrito along with a guide to all of the pals that you can collect. Each of

the range has their own distinct personality traits and there are some super cool

creatures to collect. At £7.99, these make a great addition to any child’s Christmas

stocking, with no tiny bits to lose and my kids have absolutely loved them.

Continuing on the food theme (and lots of toys like this

love this theme, as the hundreds of Shopkins that my

kids have amassed will attest), we also loved Foodie-

Roos. The Foodie-Roo range includes cookies, pretzels,

gummies, popcorn, cereal, juice and more. Each Foodie-

Roo pot doubles up as a home (Foodie-Room) for your

new little friend, and contains a collectors sheet and

stickers for decorating your room, as well as a quirky little plush. The Roos

themselves both smell and feel like the food that they are supposed to represent,

so our pretzel plush had a slightly ‘crispy’ feel to her, and our cereal one felt like she

was full of rice-krispies. We loved that these came with their own little habitat for

the kids to build and decorate and the kids loved the scent of their Foodies. Again, a

lovely little stocking filler for under a tenner.

If you’re going to have food-themed blind bags, why not have ones

that themed around one of your five-a-day? Bananas are peelable, scented and multi-coloured banana-shaped pouches containing a mystery surprise Crushie creature, along with two cute squeezable pets! A hanging vine nest and set of sticky gemstones to decorate your Crushie completes the set and adds to the fun. They’re great fun for decorating, collecting and trading, and at £3.99 each or £9.99 for a bunch of three Bananas, they are a great stocking filler price!

For kids who love babies and dolls, there is no

better surprise toy than Baby Born Surprise!

There are 12 different babies to collect, each

with their own unique attributes. These little

munchkins are hidden away in little eggs, and

there are 10 different surprises contained in

each one! After unwrapping them from their

sleepy swaddling, you can wake them up to

reveal their eye-colour, discover their hair colour, find out their favourite food by

sitting them in water, and they will even drink and wet their nappies! These babies

are a great size too, and we particularly loved that these surprise toys can also be

used as part of larger playsets – check out our review of Baby Born Surprise’s Bottle

House here. These are great fun and will appeal to any child with a parental

instinct and are available for around £10.

Last year, L.O.L Surprise! dolls were THE toy to have, but we

did think it was a bit of a shame that all of the dolls were girls.

Well, no more! How about L.O.L Surprise! Boys as an option

this year? They complement the original range perfectly, with

the Boy dolls pairing up with their girl counterparts perfectly.

Have a Queen Bee from last year? There’s now a King Bee to

match, or how about Teacher’s Pet’s brother, Smarty Pants?

Just like the original range, there are lots of surprises in each ball and the outfits and

accessories are interchangeable so you can create your own unique look. Some of

the dolls are even colour-change or can be fed or bathed for added fun, and it’s

always super exciting if you manage to find an ultra-rare or glittery character!

Little girls love jewellery, and we thought

these Lucky Fortune toys would make a

lovely stocking filler. Each fortune cookie

contains its own fortune as well as a fortune

teller and a gorgeous little charm bracelet.

There are over 100 of these to collect and

they look fantastic either worn on their own

or as part of a set. At £4.99 each, they are good value and I’m sure they would

delight most little girls on Christmas morning.

For slightly older kids, Blume Dolls are a different take on blind toys – these ones are hidden in a plastic plant pot and you need to water them with the included watering can to see the dolls literally bloom out of their pots! With super cool squishable hair, changeable outfits and a customisable plant pot house, we think these are fabulous fun for older kids, and being able to swap and change everything from the outfits to accessories to even their hair means there are almost endless combinations. Another great stocking filler for around a tenner!

Finally on the surprise bag theme, something for younger

children - Springlings Surprise, available for £7.50. Whilst most of the blindbag and surprise collectable toys contain small parts and are for kids aged at least 5+, Springlings Surprise from Little Tikes offers the same collectable experience for much younger kids. With no small parts, the Springlings are miniature plush pets, and each one will spring out of their own little collectable cottage as you open them! Working like a mini jack-in-a-box, these cute little pets can be

stuffed back into their homes and sprung out again and again, and will certainly delight toddlers and younger children whilst their older siblings are busy making their toys poo slime.

Kids’ Christmas Stocking Guide

For kids who appreciate toilet humour and like slime,

Hangrees are well worth a look. These collectables are

great fun, parody figures based on popular icons in kids’

culture. These revolting creatures will chomp away at

their ‘food’ – give them a bit of a shake and leave them

for a few minutes for them to digest and what are you

are left with? POO! Each Hangree comes with the

ingredients for its own colour and texture of slimy poo

for you to mix up, then you can watch in wonder as they sit on their clear toilet whilst

nature calls! These characters are great fun, and we think its nice to see a collectable

that will appeal to boys. With characters to collect including Harry Plopper and Chew-

Kaka, Hangrees are the toilet-themed gift that just keeps on giving – slime and a

character toy for around a tenner isn’t bad going!

For fans of slime and cute little critters, you

can’t go far wrong with Poopsie Cutie

Tooties Surprise! These contain a snippable

unicorn poo, from which you can squeeze

your mystery slime! As well as the surprise

of the texture, colour and scent of slime, there is also a cute little Tootie critter

hidden in the gunge! Once you’ve freed your new friend , the slime can be re-sealed

safely inside the unicorn poo pouch for next time—what more could a slime-loving

child want for Christmas? Available from £7.50, these are a great fun stocking filler.

A great fun, and reasonably self-contained option for slime

-mad kids, are Ooze Labs Slime Test Tubes from

educational toy experts, Thames & Kosmos. Available in a

number of different slimy options, Ooze Labs will allow you

to create magnetic slime, glitter slime, day-glo slime and

more, and to store it all securely in the test tubes too. At

around £4 per tube, we thought these were a great value

stocking filler, and we loved that everything you need is included—you don’t need to

go searching the kitchen cupboards for extra ingredients!

Kids’ Christmas Stocking Guide

Another option if your child loves interactive pets are

Pomsies Pets. These pom-pom type fluffballs wrap

their tails around your wrist, your bag strap, your

clothes and more. They love to be stroked, brushed

and played with, and will reward your attention with

purring that you can even feel. Their eyes will tell you

how they are feeling or what they want, and they have

around 50 different responses especially for you. They

also have a super fun dance mode: pop them on your

wrist and start boogying. The faster you dance, the

faster they sing – a great way to get the kids moving

and working off their Christmas dinner! And even better, these ones are just £9.99.

The range includes kittens, puppies, a unicorn and a dragon, so there is something

for everyone!

For a stocking-filler priced interactive pet, you can’t

go wrong with Lumies from Pomsies! These fluffy

unicorn themed little critters will sit in the palm of

your hand chattering away, but the best bit is the

games she’ll play with you! Lumie has a colour

sensor so can change her fur colour to match

anything around the house you want to sit her on!

She also associates every colour with a sound, so

you can even play tunes by moving her across

differently coloured surfaces. They’ll really get the

kids moving about too, as they zoom from room to room looking for new colours

to experiment with, and they even come with batteries included! Absolutely

fabulous fun for any child with an interest in mythical creatures and really well

priced at less than £20, and there are three different Lumies to collect.

Kids’ Christmas Stocking Guide

For cosmetics fun for kids, we love some of Mad Beauty’s Disney range for novel stocking fillers.

Aladdin’s Colour Changing Bubble Bath is particularly good fun – it’s presented in a mystical golden lamp and promises a magical colour changing surprise when

it’s poured into a warm bath. Or how about their Minnie Mouse’s Magical Lip Balm? Beautifully presented in an iconic Minnie-shaped container, complete with metallic

pink bow, this lip balm would make a lovely stocking filler for any Disney-mad little girl!

We also thought their Snow White’s Sneezy Tissues were great fun, and they just reminded me of the kinds of little treats that my mum used to pop into my Christmas stocking, because stockings really are about the little things! Mad Beauty have a massive range of Disney-themed toiletry treats, and there is something in there to suit all ages or tastes!

Whilst younger kids won’t be asking for makeup or beauty

items in their stockings, most little girls do love to have

pretty hair. Pop Pop Hair Surprise are fantastic fun little

surprise sets that will delight any little wannabe hair

stylist! Contained inside a super cool character hairbrush is

your new Pop Pop – a long haired little creature who loves

to be styled! You will need to use the incorporated water

spritz bottle to spray your Pop

Pop’s cocoon, and watch whilst they hatch out. Once

you have revealed your Pop Pop, and brushed,

braided and coiffured their hair, you can either wear it

in your own hair style or use them as a topper on your

pencils! There are 8 of these to collect and we think

they’re great fun and a lovely stocking filler at £9.99

Kids’ Christmas Stocking Guide

Little Brian Paint Stick products are always hugely

popular in our house – they are as close to mess-

free as you will ever get with painting and we love

them. But how about something a little different,

with Little Brian Face Paint Sticks? They are

retractable plastic face paint sticks that come in a

pack of 12, containing every colour you are likely to

need, including 4 very cool fluorescent colours.

There is also a brilliant and very simple How to Guide for 12 different face paint

designs, each with a simple three-step guide. They apply very easily (the kids can

even apply their own), wash off just as easily with soap and water and are pretty

smudge-free. We loved these and they make a great stocking filler for any child

with an interest in dressing up and pretend play!

For jigsaw-mad kids who are ready for a different kind of

challenge, we can highly recommend Eugy from Brainstorm

Toys! These 3D puzzles are made of thick card but slot

together to make a very sturdy and detailed creature, fully

self-standing and complete with beady eyes! The range is

extensive, and contains mystical creatures like dragons and

unicorns, as well as more down-to-earth choices like llamas,

giraffes, sharks and wolves. These are fantastic fun, the perfect size to pop into a

stocking and a real bargain for around £10.

If a new set of colouring pencils is on your child’s wish list, how

about these Inspirational Colouring Pencils from Stib? Contained

in their own eco-friendly storage tube, these fabulous little pencils

are embossed with positive little messages that your kids will see

every time they pick them up to colour. With phrases such as ‘world

changer’, ‘problem solver’ and ‘joy finder’, we thought these were

absolutely gorgeous and would make a lovely gift. They have an ergonomic

triangular barrel shape and come complete with a pencil sharpener and sticker

sheet for £7.95 for a pack of 10 mini pencils.

Kids’ Christmas Stocking Guide

One of the other big crazes, and a relatively inexpensive Christmas stocking request last year was slow-rising squishies. However, we found with ours that by the time the kids went back to school, the squishie foam had started to get damaged and they no longer looked anything like as cute as they had on Christmas morning.

Squeezamals are a definite upgrade to last year’s squishies, and the kids just love them! Available in a range of gorgeous animals, and a total bargain at less than a fiver, Squeezamals are squishies but contained within a plush skin, so there is nothing to rip or tear. They are the perfect size for little hands to squeeze, before watching them slowly rise again – they even have a slight fruity scent! We were sent a puppy called Bryce and my youngest’s current favourite creature, a narwhal, and because these ones aren’t blind bags, you can pick your child’s favourite animal to make it a more personal choice of stocking filler.

Not all kids can eat chocolate or traditional Christmas goodies, and food intolerances seem to be getting more and more common. But why should kids miss out just because

they have allergies? They shouldn’t, and the folks at Larabar have three fabulous options. Available in 3 flavours: Banana Choc Chip, Apple & Cinnamon and Peanut Butter Choc Chip, all three options are gluten free, dairy free, egg free, vegan and have no added sugar or flavours. Each one is made of just five or six natural ingredients with nothing added – and they taste great! A lovely option for either kids with allergies, or for parents who are saying no to too much chocolate! Available

from Sainsbury’s for £2.50 for a pack of three, they won’t break the bank either!

Teens’ Christmas Stocking Guide Whilst older kids will no doubt love

products like paint sticks, they are

also often getting to the stage where

they want to experiment a little bit

with some slightly more challenging

media, to get some more realistic and

grown-up results. Watercolour paints

are notoriously difficult to master, but

Derwent Watercolour Pencils make

a fantastic first foray into watercolour.

At £39.99, they’re possibly at the top-end of ‘stocking filler’, but they truly do make a

great choice. The set of 24 contains every colour you might ever need (you mix these

in the same way you would with ordinary watercolour), and they come presented in

a lovely, solid tin that will keep them safe with unbroken cores for years to come.

Derwent have always made top quality artist’s supplies, and these are no exception.

They are super-soft, very bendable and can be used in a variety of different ways to

create some stunning and very impressive effects. For older children and adults who

want to try out a new hobby, these are a fantastic option!

Crystal Crafts and Diamond Painting are massive at the

moment—we love them because they are so relaxing and the

end result really is something you can be proud of. Crystal

Card Kits and Crystal Motif Kits from Craft Buddy are a

fantastic introduction to this great new media. They allow you

to dip your toes into the water for a minimal cost, and the

quality of the products is great. They have a lovely range of

Christmas themed images on the website at the moment, as well as non-festive

designs. These would make a super stocking filler for under a fiver for any arts &

crafts minded teenager. These kits really are addictive and un-put-downable!

Teens’ Christmas Stocking Guide

Hair Mask Sachets are a great option for a real treat for your teen’s hair, and can add a real feel of pampering to their routine. Additional Lengths have some fantastic options for popping in their stockings, but we particularly liked MALIBU C Scalp Therapy and MALIBU C Miracle Repair. The Scalp Therapy mask is a flake fighter that

naturally soothes and satisfies, whilst instantly delivering vital nutrients to your

scalp. We also love that it helps relieve symptoms associated with common scalp

conditions, because no teen (or anyone else for that matter) wants visible flakes in

their hair. The Miracle Repair is an intensive and deep conditioning mask, 100%

vegan and is ideal for feeding nutrient-starved hair. It is packed with plant proteins

and enriched with Pro-Vitamin B5 for mega-moisturizing, leaving your hair soft,

silky and shiny. At £3.99 and £2.99 respectively, they’re an inexpensive and

luxurious treat for your teen!

If you’re not yet ready for your teen or pre-

teen to be locking themselves in the

bathroom with bottles of cosmetics, how

about a 3-pack of silk scrunchies from Only

Curls? Being made from 100% silk, they won’t

tangle or break your hair like some bobbles

and scrunchies can, and they feel very

luxurious. Being narrow, they are a lot more

subtle than some scrunchies too and are

fantastic for either sleeping in or wearing out and about. These are a lovely item

for around £10, and a great choice for when they have started wanting something

a bit more grown up in their hair.

Teens’ Christmas Stocking Guide

Teenage girls seem to love nothing more than hair and beauty

products, and lotions and potions are a great size and price point for

popping in stockings as a little treat! For teenagers with curly locks,

The Curl Friend by Cake Beauty is a curl-defining, frizz-fighting curl

cream to tame the locks of any curly girlie! We loved the super-trendy

packaging, and the fact that they are cruelty-free and vegan is also

great to see. You don’t need to use a huge amount, so at £8.99 a tube

it makes a great value and useful stocking filler.

If your teen has just started high school, the chances are they will have been handed the keys to their very own locker! School lockers aren't the most personal

of spaces, and that’s where Locker Days comes in! Locker Days offer a super cool range of locker accessories, from wallpapers to carpets to mirrors and pen pots. They’re great fun, and as everything attaches magnetically, won’t leave any residue either. With prices starting at just a few pounds, they’re an ideal stocking filler.

Kids these days always seem to be on their phones, and

as they get older, a lot of that time is spent listening to

music. The quality of the speakers on even high-end

mobiles leaves a lot to be desired, but listening too

often with earphones isn't great either. That’s where a

portable Bluetooth speaker can be a great idea. The

MP200 from Edifier is a small, cube shaped speaker, available in a range of colours

and with a super-trendy, rubberised finish. The quality of the sound these produce

is great, especially for the size and they sound an awful lot better than their £28.99

price tag would suggest.

Teens’ Christmas Stocking Guide

Kids love gadgets, and for younger teens who

might be starting to get themselves home from

school independently or using public transport,

it’s always reassuring to be able to keep in

touch with them. Expensive phones can be

targets for thieves and pickpockets, and lots of

kids aren’t the most careful when it comes to

looking after their possessions, so we think the

Alcatel 1 phone from Alcatel makes a great

choice as a first phone, so you can always keep

in touch. It doesn’t have all of the features of

the latest iPhone, but it has everything you

could possibly need: a decent camera (with selfie cam!), the ability to connect to the

internet, use WhatsApp and social media, and has a bright, 5” colour touchscreen.

At £59.99 SIM-free, and including 8GB of onboard storage (expandable up to

128GB via SD), there is ample space to store plenty of selfies and music!

Keeping their phones powered on the go is vital, so a power bank from Juice might also be a very popular stocking filler for them too! Their 12345 range offers a power bank to suit all budgets and they have options ranging

from £14.99 all the way up to £39.99, depending on your power needs. #1 is small and portable, and holds up to one full charge, and #2 is slightly bigger and will power your

phone twice. The three larger powerbanks also feature a digital percentage battery indicator and hold enough charge for 3, 4 and 5 full charges, depending on the model you pick. They are available in a range of colours, come complete with a pouch and a small charging cable, and they are able to charge a phone from 0-50% in under an hour—super fast! We also loved the rubberised finish, great for teenagers who might not be so careful with their stuff! This will be a useful and very popular stocking filler choice!

Grown-ups’ Christmas Stocking Guide

As well as little treats and delights, stockings have traditionally

(in my house at least!) been home to some incredibly useful

items that we might just not think to purchase for ourselves. So,

for the keen runner or cyclist in your life, how about a

Reflective Ankle Band from Ultimate Performance? This fully

padded and highly reflective band fastens with Velcro, is

adjustable to fit nearly anyone (adult-sized), and is incredibly

comfortable. It features three reflective strips in white and yellow, and is visible up to

a quarter of a mile away. The quality of this item is fantastic, it’s a bargain at £8.99

and there’s nothing better than knowing that your loved ones are that bit safer when

they’re out and about.

It should be no great surprise that hats and scarves are standby Christmas presents, given the weather in December. But woollies

don’t have to be a boring standby present, and the Nitya woolly hat from ethical clothing manufacturer Sherpa proves that point! A truly ethical company, Sherpa invest massively into the Nepalese communities where they make a number of their clothes, and use natural materials wherever possible to manufacture their products. The Nitya is made from 100% lambswool, looks fantastic and you can rest assured your purchase will be doing more than lining the pockets of multi-national corporations. A lovely stocking filler for £25.

For the avid gardener in your life, how about Seed balls?, Made from clay, peat-free compost, seeds and chilli powder, seed balls have their own mini ecosystem, protecting seeds from birds, ants and slugs and giving them the nutrition they need to get a head start and germinate easily. They are ideal for those with small gardens, balcony gardens or planter gardens, proving that you don’t need a massive space to create a beautiful outdoor

space. At just £6 per tin these are a great price and are even available in a special

edition Wonderland tin – perfect for the festive season!

Grown-ups’ Christmas Stocking Guide

All of the delicious goodies that we wouldn’t normally treat ourselves to the rest of the year are without a doubt one of the best things about Christmas. And we seem to be so much more adventurous when it comes to flavours when we’re buying gifts for others! Popcorn Shed have some fantastic options for those of us who love a bit of popcorn; some standard flavours and some that are really out there. Their Sheds, priced at £3.50 for an 80g box of posh popcorn make a great stocking filler choice. Forget deciding if you want sweet or salt flavour, these are available in far more interesting

varieties which includes Salted Caramel, Pecan Pie, Say Cheese, Berry-licious,

and my own festively themed favourite – Sweet Cheesus. All of their popcorns are also gluten-free, which is great to see as so many Christmas treats aren’t.

For a gift in the more chocolatey-minded person’s stocking, how about something from Seed and Bean?

Seed and Bean offer 100% organic and ethical chocolate and chocolate gifts in some fabulously inventive flavours. From Mandarin & Ginger to Coconut & Raspberry and Caffe Mocha to Lemon & Poppyseed, there really is something for everyone.

There are mini bars (£1.20) and larger bars (£2.69), as well as a gorgeous range of filled Christmas Crackers and gift boxes for under £12.

The humble pork scratching doesn’t exactly get the best press in the world, and I reckon it’s about time that was changed!

The Snaffling Pig Company makes some quite fabulous porky-themed treats that would go down a storm in any (non-vegetarian’s) Christmas stocking! We absolutely love the flavour range on offer (honestly, it’s massive!), and as well as giftsets that come complete with beers, sauces and chutneys, they also sell bags and jars that would fit perfectly into a

stocking. With bags from just 75p, variety packs from £6 and jars from £8.50, there’s something for all tastes and budgets.

Grown-ups’ Christmas Stocking Guide

One of the most popular gifts I have ever given is the Zippo

Heatbank 6! This super little device can be charged in under

two hours, and provides heat in the palm of your hand for up

to six hours. Its ergonomic design is very comfortable to hold,

and the five different heat settings will have your hands warmed up in no time! It’s at

the top end of the stocking filler budget at £39.95, but if you’re a fan of useful

presents as well as something that’s a bit of a treat for the recipient, this is a great

one to go for.

Candles are becoming more popular, but how about one that

has a hidden meaning? Secret Message candles from 54

Celsius has just that! The perfect size to pop into a Christmas

stocking, this gorgeous little candle is available with eight

different message options, so there really should be something

to suit every recipient or occasion. They have a burn time of 1-2

hours, so your hidden message will appear reasonably quickly and we loved the

subtle, pastel colours. The Secret message candle is scent free, comes in a beautiful

giftbox and at £8.99 is about the right price for a little treat for a special someone.

We are all being encourage to ditch the single use plastic

and even single-use cardboard products, and one of the

easiest way we can do this is with reusable coffee cups.

Huski Home Coffee Cups go one step further than just

replacing single use plastic with multi-use plastics—they

actually use the natural waste product of rice milling to

produce their cups. The Huski cups are almost entirely biodegradable and are

mostly made from rice husk, which regulates the internal temperature perfectly and

has a modern, matte finish. Available in two sizes, each in six colours, these are

another great ethical choice and they cost from £9.99

We all love eating out (don’t we?), and we certainly

all love saving a few pennies, so an annual Taste Card membership makes a fabulous and thoughtful Christmas present for anyone who loves eating out. As well as savings on big chain restaurants like Pizza Hut, Café Rouge, Ed’s and Chiquito’s, there is a treasure trove of fabulous independent restaurants and even a number of Domino’s Pizza branches, all with either 2-4-1 or 50% off offers. There are even offers at Odeon and Vue cinemas, so you can really make a night of it! At £39.99 for a year’s subscription, a Taste Card makes a cracking stocking filler (hint: get one for your other half, so you get to benefit too!).

Quality ‘alone time’, either with your partner, or genuinely alone, is something that will always be appreciated, and TENGA have come up with some stocking filler priced items to allow you to give the gift of pleasure to your significant other.

With options for her like the Iroha Lipstick (£17.99), which can be discreetly popped in a bedside drawer or even

handbag, or the waterproof Iroha Mini (£18.49), there is bound to be something that will please the special lady in your life. And why should women get all the fun? Tenga have some great options for him too, that he will no

doubt appreciate. Their Egg is available either singly at £9.99, or in a pack of half a

dozen eggs in a cool egg-themed box for £44.99. Finally, the Original Vacuum Cup, priced at £15.49 is sure to put a smile on his face!

One of the finest gifts that any of us can ever give is the

gift of sleep. Eve Sleep make some of the best

mattresses and pillows that we have ever used, and

even they now have a stocking-filler priced product! The

Eve Mini Pillow is great for those who are always on

the go. It’s a miniature version of their fabulous memory foam pillow and is a

perfectly sized travel companion for napping anytime, anywhere. It’s got nearly all

the benefits of their best-selling original pillow but is just half the size. At just £30,

it’s the right price and size for any Christmas stocking.
