Got some Bells to spare to give the Animal Crossing fans in your life a fantastic gift? Then you've come to the right place. From clothing to plushes, there's a range of gifts here that's sure to excite any fan of the series. And don't worry, the gifts won't cost nearly as much as the loans to Tom Nook!

There's a lot of Animal Crossing merchandise out there, so it can be difficult to know what's best, especially if you aren't familiar with the series yourself. That's exactly why we've gathered these gifts here — to make the process much easier for you.

This t-shirt features Tom Nook and his nephews Timmy and Tommy, inviting you to an island getaway with Nook Inc. The pastel blue print looks great against the basic white, though the t-shirt is also available in baby blue or lemon yellow if that's preferred.

This design is perfect for fans of Animal Crossing: New Horizons specifically, and any fan who loves Tom Nook and his nephews — just look at how adorable they are in their vacation shirts.

Who doesn't love a good plushie? Fans of the pop star sensation K.K. Slider will swoon over this plush! You can choose between two sizes — six inches or 15 inches — but it's soft, cuddly, and cute all the same thanks to K.K.'s face.

The price increases if you go for the bigger option, though, so you may want to bear that in mind if you're sticking to a budget or taking part in a game of Secret Santa.

This crossbody bag is subtly Animal Crossing themed, but if you know, you know. The pastel green base is covered in a repeated print of Tom Nook's face, with a silver-toned leaf stamp in the center. Inside, there's enough room to store a Nintendo Switch (including the OLED version). The pocket is padded, so the console will be safe and secure, too.

Alternatively, your giftee could use this as a regular bag — who says they have to play by the rules? It's a lovely accessory that any Animal Crossing fan will delight in receiving.

One of the best parts of the Animal Crossing games is how they progress in real-time, allowing you to play in short bursts and experience holidays in the game. Using this day-to-day 2024 calendar, your giftee can plan out their Animal Crossing year.

Each day of the calendar showcases a villager whose birthday is on that day. It even includes special characters like Tom Nook, Celeste, and the Able Sisters. It also comes with an easel backer, so the calendar can easily be displayed on a desk, windowsill, or table.

Is your character a horse? Is your character yellow? Is your character the worst villager in the series ever? This Guess Who? game has an Animal Crossing twist, where all the characters are villagers or special characters from the series.

There are 24 characters to guess, so there's plenty of fun to be had as you go through them. If you're an Animal Crossing fan too, you could play this together with the person you're gifting it to!

Bandai Shokugan's series of Animal Crossing figures is fantastic. They may be mini (stand at around two inches tall), but the detail is incredible, and the fuzzy material finish is unlike any other figure, too.

The first collection includes Isabelle, Tom Nook, Flick, Flurry, Lolly, Dom, and Marshal. Depending on your budget, you could buy your giftee the full collection, or choose their favorite character from the bunch.

If you're unsure who their favorite is, Isabelle is always a great choice!
