Gift ideas

Planning ahead and would like some suggestions please. 24 Small gifts to fill this advent calendar

   

Stocking and mittens are about 10cm x 5cm (4”x2.5” ) . 

The gifts are for Bob. So boys toys     . I found out last year. That Bob has never had an advent calendar. My tiny mind was blown! 

So ideas I’ve had so far. Probably half of them will just be filled with chocolates. Was thinking marbles, a car , small antiques like ornaments , pill box, thimble. I’ve all ready got a very unusual tiny China frog. And a hand blown glass flamingo (on its way). Fishing lure, Was going to try to find a nice shell and stone off the beach. And probably nick some of his pz2’s (screw driver bits) out of his garage     ( he’ll never notice a couple are missing) . Possibly a selection of screws as well    . 
What gifts would you put in an advent calendar for a man shaped kid 

I’m going to the bright lights of Oban on Wednesday and hitting the charity shops.

I hope Bob's not reading this.

Miniature bottles of summat to drink?
Tea bags/coffee?
Old fashioned sweets like jelly babies, sherbert, fudge.

Very unlikely, he only comes here when I tell him too

Ooh yes, a mini bottle of gin . Now off to research if I can buy an individual single serving of coffee? 
of course yes he likes sweets, will have a think.
Thank you 

How about some seeds.

How about some seeds.

Hopefully it’ll be full of seeds the following year. When Bob has to fill the advent calendar for me. Which he will be informed about when he gets this one on the 1st   ( and no doubt reminded several times after that as well   )

Don't nag too much or it might be full of dandelion and nettle seeds.

Going back to coffee, you can buy coffee sachets in most supermarkets, cheap ones included - they're about £1 for 8 sachets.

A small pen knife shaped multi tool but having looked online at the prices I think they're a bit too expensive for an advent calendar.

Post it notes or stationery of his liking.
Does he wear specs? Glasses cleaner.
A leather strip for his ponytail (I'm assuming he still has one)

It’s not nagging     . It really is reminding. He’s got a memory like a bloody sieve

Ooh I’ll have a look thanks. Unsurprisingly he’s fussy about his coffee     .
