Nyokki Pets Planters

nyokki_pets.jpg

Calling them Nyokki Pets is no misnomer for these adorable little guys, as Nyokki is the Japanese word for grow. Nyokki Pets are cute planters which come in a variety of animal forms: frogs, cats, bears, monkeys, pigs and more. Each glazed ceramic pet comes with media and rye grass seeds -- just add water, put a sunny spot and watch them grow even cuter.

 
 

Your children can help comb the Nyokki's "hair", style it with ribbons and even give it a hair cut. It'll be hard to decide who will love these little planters more, you or your kids.
