Those little bamboo/rubber band planes!
Somewhere out there is a world we never knew existed.

Languages never spoken.
Colors that should not be.
Lives never opened.
Eyes that never see.

And then the page is turned, a universe created.

We are gods.

I think they are the ones made of light balsa wood that has a rubberband on the propeller that you wind it up, and let it fly!
Or it could be one you shoot with a rubberband like a slingshot. I have seen both.

This year I have decided to just use a variety of gift cards as stocking stuffers. I have purchased several kinds: subway, red lobster, Applebee's, iTunes, Amazon, IHOP, Barnes and noble, dollar general, google play and few fun online websites etc. some of them are for as little as 15 dollars. This is the first year I have done this so I hope everyone likes it. If they don't then, POO. It is so hard shopping for kids, tweens and teens!

I go for the candy canes. Both the traditional ones and the bigger plastic ones with the candy inside. You've got to be the cool guy when you give them all candy, right? ;)

Wow "as little as $15.00" :shock: I want to get one of your stockings, lol. That is the best for teens and kids unless you know exactly what they want.



I do little things like:
Jacks
Yo yo's
Silly putty
Slinky
Mad Libs
Those tube rubber blow up balloon things
Silly String
Nail polish
Decals
Stickers
Stick on tattoos
water balloons
blow bubbles
