Toy Day happens on December 24th every year and starts at 5 AM You'll be able to play the event until 5 AM the next day.
Jingle will appear in the Resident Services area at 6 AM on the day of the event. You can easily distinguish him from the rest of your villagers as he's a reindeer wearing a Santa Outfit.
He will tell you he is helping Santa deliver presents on your island and will ask for your help!
After you agree to help Jingle deliver presents, he'll give you the DIY recipe for the Festive Wrapping Paper. You need to craft three of these to start delivering presents to your villagers.
To craft the DIY recipe, you need one Gold Ornament, one Blue Ornament, and one Red Ornament. You can get these materials by shaking festive trees on your island.
You can also get ornaments from Isabelle iin the Resident Services. Talk to her to receive 3 of each ornaments for free!
Once you have crafted 3 Festive Wrapping Paper, Jingle will give you the Toy Day Stockings furniture and the Magic Bag tool; the latter allows you to carry the presents you'll need to give to your villagers.
With the Magic Bag equipped, you can now go around and fill Santa's role in gifting villagers. Talk to any villager and give them their gift from inside the Magic Bag.
You'll automatically give the right gifts to your villagers, so you don't need to worry about picking something specific.
You can check inside the bag to find out how many gifts are left. If there are less than three villagers that need presents, the bag will tell you who the villagers are! This is very helpful if you lose track of who has a gift or not!
You don't need to wear the full Santa outfit in order to give out gifts. It is completely optional, though we recommend wearing it to enhance the holiday theme! Your villagers may even make a comment about it!
Once you've delivered all of the gifts, return to Jingle so you can get his rewards.
If you delivered gifts to more than half of the residents of your island, you'll get the Gift Pile DIY recipe.
If you delivered gifts to every villager on your island, you will receive the Toy Day Sleigh furniture.
You'll also get an additional reward if you hang your Toy Day Stockings in your home. Interact with it the next day to get Jingle's Photo!
Not all villagers are roaming around the island on Toy Day. Some are staying indoors! If you can't find a specific villager, check inside their house!
Jingle will stay on the island until 5 AM of the next day, so you will have plenty of time to find missing villagers.
After finishing your rounds as Santa, you can exchange gifts with your residents! Simply have an item wrapped up with any wrapping paper, and talk to the villager to exchange gifts with them.
The gifts that you will receive are from the Toy Day Series of furniture that are sold in Nook's Cranny. They are also in a different variant from what's sold at Nook's! Exchanging gifts with your villagers is a great way to get different variations of the Toy Day series in one go!
If you don't have a gift to give to resident, they'll give you some Wrapping Paper to get started! Make sure to prepare a nice gift for your villagers!
Nook's Cranny will start selling Toy Day gifts from December 1 to December 25. You can give these to your villagers on Toy Day or you can purchase one for your own house!
You can only have one variaton of each gift! If you want another variation, you'll have to visit a friend's island and buy from their Nook's Cranny.
