Saint Nick and the Space Nicks

As St. Nick is delivering his toys on Christmas eve, a strange object pops into sight! After it crash-lands next to him, Santa discovers Venick from Venus. A strange purple creature with long purple hair! Venick is dressed exactly like St. Nick and tells him that while delivering his own toys on Venus, he tripped on a star and traveled from near to afar, ending up lost here on Earth. Fearing he will not be able to complete his task, he asks our Santa for help. When St. Nick says, yes, a whole new world of Christmas opens up to them!

Follow St. Nick and Venick as they travel through space and meet all of the 'Space Nicks'! It's an adventure you won't forget and reminds you that whenever you are lost:
"Look to the sky, to the heavens above,
There are billions of stars that sparkle with love!"
