A puffy Christmas stocking with a fuzzy cuff hangs from a hook, stuffed with a teddy bear, a candy cane and a little toy drum peeking over the top. Kids enjoy imagining what else might be inside. Add stripes or polka dots to the stocking for a personal touch.
Hanging stockings by the fireplace is often linked to old stories about Saint Nicholas, a kind man remembered for secretly leaving gifts for people in need.
Try this together
Have your child draw three small toys they would tuck into the stocking, then describe each one using two describing words.
