What does Nyokki mean? In Japanese Nyokki means Grow Grow Grow! And that is exactly what these cute little Nyokki do. They grow a mini garden - and you'll love them. These Nyokki are hand made in Japan and are made from glazed ceramic.

The Nyokki are irresistible and come in a delightful cast of characters to choose from - try the Nyokki Bear, the Nyokki Chick, the Nyokki Froggie, the Nyokki Monkey or the Nyokki Piglet. The beautiful shell contrasts the fun, dangly feet. The Nyokki mini garden is perfect for the edge of a shelf, your teacher's desk or just on the window sill offering you a smile whenever you need one. Each Nyokki is filled with soil media and come with rye grass seed. When the grass seed grows you or your child can band it together or have fun giving your Nyokki a haircut.

Perfect for your Kindergarten class or garden center event, let the children choose which character they want so that they will be more inclined to watch the Nyokki's growth and study the way the seeds germinate. Then let them drop the little seeds into the Nyokki's soil (after making a small dribble hole), cover up the seeds with the peat and let them add a small amount of water. Kids love gardening and no better way to give them an introduction to horticulture than with a cute Nyokki!

Make it a great day in the garden!
