Cashing in on the Yuletide spirit, Nickelodeon has lined up a special array of programmes for its viewers.

The specials take off on 22 December at 11:00 am with Say Please, a show in which newly crowned VJ Shiv Tandon and his friend Karan have their knowledge on the season tested by Santa.

On 25 December, the channel will air A Very Catdog Christmas and Rugrats: Babies in Toyland which sees the Rugrats find out that there is much more to Christmas than mere presents and tradition. The special sees Arnold celebrate Christmas by reuniting Mr Hyunhs, the lonely boarder with his long lost daughter by drawing his name in the boarding house's secret Santa game.

Another attraction is the Have yourself a Thornberry's Little Christmas where Eliza does her best to help animals survive the winter along the Skeleton coast at the cost of missing Christmas dinner with the family. Also, The Ren and Skimpy Show - A Scooter for Yakmas,will air a special episode where the duo prepare for Yakmas, the holiday where Stinky Weezelteats and his sidekick Yak visit and leave gifts like hot link sausages.
