A home-made Advent calendar is always a wonderful gift for very special people. The small NICI surprises, ranging from funny pencils, notepads, picture frames to keychains -  available in different designs, sweeten the pill of waiting for Christmas, especially so for children.

A bulging boot at St. Nicholas is inextricably linked to Christmas like mistletoe over your door. In Germany, this tradition is now more than 500 years old. On the night of the 5^th of December, polished shoes are placed in front of the door, hoping that St. Nicholas will have filled them with sweets and small presents the next morning, for example with a playful cereal bowl and a matching mug from NICI.

Surprise Santa is a pre-Christmas custom maintained among colleagues, in clubs,  schools and various internet forums. Here, every member is alotted another group member (“Secret Santa“) by random selection, who then gives him or her a present at a festive occasion.

The advantage of choosing a small present from NICI, such as a cell phone pouch or a little plush friend, is that the recipient of the present will certainly be delighted.

Not only do the high-quality plush friends in all their different sizes and variations from the NICI family make children's eyes light up, but also the fun accessories. How about a cuddly spectacle case, a money box, a fluffy hot water bottle, a plush pencil case, a “My Friends“ book, writing paper, a mug or a cuddly cushion, for example? Small presents that are enjoyed by the entire family.

And then there is the pre-Christmas season with the sweet smell of Christmas goodies lying in the air, candle light, Christmas carols and brightly lit shop windows. The most precious time of the year, not only for children. For some time now, children have been “working“ on their wish list for Father Christmas. The highlight of this season is certainly the filled stocking and the presents on Christmas Day. For this occasion, the NICI GmbH is presenting a wide selection of wonderful presents. With this extensive product range including the fluffy Winter Bears, the horses from the Horse Club Collection, Jolly Sven and Jolly Svenja from the family of Jolly Mäh sheep, the new dinosaurs, the cuddly hedgehog from the Forest Friends or the adorable Love Cats, making a present becomes even more fun.

Presents that mustn't be forgotten on any Christmas shopping list.
