2020: digital Saint Nicholas, real-life gifts

The arrival of Saint Nicholas will be upon us soon... but like many things in 2020, his arrival will be a little different this year. Since the good man can't visit our houses in person, he will have to make a digital appearance. However, that doesn't mean the 6th of December should be any less fun! This year, you have the luxury of having all gifts delivered right to your door. Speaking of a swift service ;-) We've listed a couple of items to make this year's Saint Nicholas unforgettable!

Put your best shoe forward

In order to receive the best possible gifts, of course, you need to put out your best pair of shoes! Thanks to Naturino's new kid's collection, Saint Nicholas will know right away who asked for that miniature horse.

 

 

 

 

A digital visit from Saint Nicholas

JBC has come up with the perfect solution for Saint Nicholas during lockdown: a personalized message for every child, young and old. Instead of a physical visit in the stores, the holy man will cheer up the little ones with a personalized message. In addition, for the first time ever, the children will get a unique insight into the big book of Saint Nicholas, so they can see what is written about them. Because honestly, we are all curious about that, aren't we?

 

 

Creative fun delivered right at your door

Parents (or Saint Nicholas) can simply order great quality time online at www.joybox.be. Starting at €35, you'll get an original DIY concept delivered to your home.

 

 

Toys come in all shapes and sizes

Sometimes old school is best. La Redoute's wide range of toys that mimic real-life scenes are the ideal gift for your little ones. They'll feel just like mommy or daddy! #proud

 

German stroller brand Cybex made a mini version of their well known stroller, the Priam, in collaboration with doll manufacturer Corolle.

 

 

Looking fab for the great day

The arrival of Saint Nicholas is a BIG deal for most kids. Of course, they want to look and feel their best on the 6th of December. Guess Kids has got them covered.
