Chicken and bunny wish you Happy Easter…

In time for Easter, the NICI GmbH presents a crisp and cheerful as well as colourful product range characterised by the oncoming spring season.

Altenkunstadt, 7^th March 2011. Ready for Easter! All big and small Easter fans, attention please! Bunny Puschel has been assigned an assistant. The little chicken makes itself useful and helps with painting and hiding the eggs.

As early as the beginning of March, bunny Puschel and the little yellow chicken by NICI will be lolloping and waddling into well-assorted gift and toy shops, the internet, department stores as well as the 32 NICI shops, waiting to celebrate Easter with old and young.

The sweet Easter bunny Puschel and his best friend the chicken, made of snuggly soft plush, are wonderful for cuddling. Whether as dangling plush in two different sizes - 15 cm and 25 cm -, as bean bags with keyrings or hidden as a 7 cm tall plush friend in a plush egg or metal box, Puschel and chicken are also loyal companions beyond Easter.

What would a lovingly laid table for an Easter breakfast look like without matching egg cups, cereal bowls or mugs? The sweet little chicken will magically bring Easter atmosphere to every home.

Well then – have fun hunting for eggs!
