One of my favourite Christmas traditions as a child was waking up (ludicrously early) on Christmas morning, frantically finding my stocking at the bottom of the bed and running upstairs to my sisters room. We would then sit in her bed under the duvet and open our stocking presents, one at a time. We usually started with the chocolate orange so we would have a snack as we went. We would then wait impatiently until an acceptable time so we could run back downstairs to wake my parents so we could open the presents under the tree.
In the last few years I have started to give my parents and the in laws a stocking each and I can confirm that you really never grow out of the joy of opening a stocking. So here are a few ideas for adult Christmas stocking fillers, although these gifts would also work well as secret santa presents or budget friendly pressies for your loved ones.
