In short
- Everton Christmas gifts for kids come down to two things: a stocking full of small treats and one main present that is all about them.
- No club has a better stocking-filler story than Everton, the Toffees, so a bag of Everton Mints belongs in there.
- The standout main present is our personalised storybook, where your child is the Everton hero and every page is hand-drawn by a real artist. No AI, ever.
- We print every book to order, in-house, so November is the safe time to order.
Everton Christmas gifts for a grown-up Blue are easy. For a 7-year-old who already has the kit, the scarf and the bobble hat, it takes a bit more thought. This guide covers the stocking, the main present, and the sweet story behind the club’s nickname.
What are the best Everton Christmas gifts for kids?
The best Everton Christmas gifts for kids are the ones they could not have bought themselves: personal, a little bit surprising, and nothing like another replica shirt. Young Evertonians tend to collect club kit fast, so more of it rarely gets the big reaction.
A gift with their name, their likeness and a story where they play for Everton does. That is the idea behind everything below.
Make it a Toffees Christmas
Everton are the Toffees for a reason, and it makes for a lovely Christmas story.
Near Goodison Park stood a sweet shop run by Mother Noblett, who sold Everton Mints: stripy black-and-white sweets in the colours of an old Everton kit. The club’s link to toffee grew from there, and so did one of football’s sweetest traditions. Before home games, the toffee lady carries a basket of toffees around the ground for the crowd, a role now given to a different teenage girl from the Supporters Club each match.
So here is a simple idea: tuck a bag of Everton Mints into the stocking, then tell the story when they find it. It costs very little and it makes the whole gift feel like an Everton one.
Which Everton stocking fillers work for a young fan?
Good Everton stocking fillers are small, named and under about £15. Alongside those mints, try:
- A royal blue water bottle with their name on it
- A named bag tag for school or training
- Blue and white football socks
- A pocket quiz book on Everton history, since the club has spent more than 120 seasons in the top flight
There are more cheap and cheerful ideas for every club in our football stocking fillers guide.
What is the best main Everton Christmas present?
The best main Everton Christmas present is a personalised storybook where your child plays for the Blues and wins the day. In this book, they are not reading about the star player. They are the star player.
Choose their name, their look and their club. We do the rest, personalised down to their eye colour, with your own message printed on the inside cover. The story runs to around 28 pages, every one hand-drawn by a real artist. You can personalise their storybook in a few minutes.
A new home, the same club
This is an exciting time to be a young Everton fan. After 133 years at Goodison Park, the club moved to its new waterfront home, the Hill Dickinson Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock.
The first Premier League game there ended in a 2-0 win over Brighton in August 2025, with Iliman Ndiaye scoring the very first league goal at the ground. Some children now growing up as Blues will never know Everton anywhere else.
The club motto, “Nil satis nisi optimum”, means “nothing but the best is good enough”. It makes a lovely line for the inside-cover message.
Buying for a grandchild
Personalising a gift online is simpler than many grandparents expect. You pick Everton, type your grandchild’s first name and surname, choose a boy or girl hero, then match their hair colour, skin tone and eye colour.
Then you write your message for the inside cover. If your grandchildren follow different teams, our Christmas football gifts guide covers them all.
When should you order Everton Christmas gifts?
Order Everton Christmas gifts in November rather than leaving them to the final week. We print and pack every book ourselves, in-house, to your choices, so each one needs a proper lead time.
Check the spelling of the name before you pay. Changes are easy before we print and much harder after.
Is a personalised Everton gift official?
No. Our storybook is not officially licensed by Everton FC. It is a personalised, football-themed story in the spirit of fan art, so check the product page if a licence matters to you.
For birthdays and the rest of the year, our Everton gifts guide has more ideas. For children who support other clubs, the same book runs across our personalised football books: every league, not just the big six.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it a good Christmas gift for a girl who supports Everton? Yes. You choose the hero’s gender and look, so it suits a daughter, granddaughter or niece just as well, and our Ladies Range keeps growing.
What is inside the book? Around 28 pages, hand-illustrated throughout, with your child as the Everton hero, a personalised cover and your own message printed inside.
How late can I order for Christmas? As early as you can. Because we print each book to order, leaving it until the last few days risks missing the Christmas post, so November is the safe window.
