Best Stocking Stuffers for Kids and Adults

Stocking Stuffers for Kids and Adults is a sponsored conversation for Set Enterprises Inc. All opinions are my own. #cardgames

I need to confess right now that I hang stockings for my adult kids, grandkids and our dog, Max. This is in addition to the gifts I buy them. I can’t help it. It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

However, I don’t like to stuff stockings with items no one really cares about so I searched for the best stocking stuffers that I knew the kids would love.

My grandsons love to play card games. Before they could barely walk or talk, we introduced them to simple card games.

These days, I have to be on my toes to even come close to winning a card game. Now that the grandkids are older, I have to find more challenging games.

Thankfully, I found plenty of stocking stuffers at setgame.com.

KARMA – What Goes Around . . . Comes Aroundâ„¢

Stocking Stuffer Ideas - KARMA

KARMA is an award-winning, Mensa recommended game.

Helpful Hint: The above photo is enlarged. The actual game will fit nicely inside a stocking.

The goal is to get rid of all your cards. When it’s your turn, play a card of equal or higher number to avoid picking up the entire discard pile. KARMA CARDS can get you out of a jam, but be careful!

You’ll want to play this one over and over. You never know who is going to win and the last player with cards loses the game and all other players win. This game is for ages 8+.

You can also get the Mini Round® version of KARMA. It’s a shorter, faster version and comes in an easy, click open tin.

Set Enterprises Inc. is a small woman-owned game company that was founded in 1990 with one game, SET®. Fast forward 25 years and now the company is owned by the founder’s daughter and their games are sold in over 40 countries.

When I’m stuffing stockings, I add the recipients favorite candy (just a little) and little gifts that fit their personalities. Makeup lovers may find their favorite lipstick or eye shadow palette.

I am with you on the stocking thing. I have 4 stockings up now for the cats and dogs and they’re already full with treats haha! These games are new to me and my family so they would be a unique and perfect gift to slip into the stockings. Love it!

These are great stocking stuffers for both kids and adults! In my family we like getting each other gift cards, candy and little things like nail polish or chapstick for each others stockings.

I always love giving the gift of games that the entire family can play together during and after the holidays! Karma sounds like a game that my family and I would really enjoy! What a great idea to play while waiting for a table at our favorite restaurant! Small and compact, it’s ready-to-go anytime!

I add a little bit of candy or chocolate and then comic books for my husband and some small Shopkins things for my daughter. We love board games that all the family can play together, so maybe I’ll add some of those too!

I am not much for games these days and neither are my family members as we hardly have the time but I would like to try and see if I can something we can play together.

We get so excited about the stockings at our house. Stockings are usually the highlight of our family Christmas party. I’m going to check out Karma. I think the Grands would love that one for sure.
