Do you not have "Kinder Surprise" on sale in the US? Small chocolate
    eggs wrapped in foil, about the same size as a small hen's egg. Inside
    the Kinder Surprise is a small toy

No.  At least, certainly not as a traditional thing.


    Kinder is German for "Child", and in New Zealand, what Americans call
    "Nursery School" is known as "Kindergarten", as in "children's garden".

Hmm.  What do you call "Kindergarten" then?  (In the US, Kindergarten is
the pre-1st grade school for 5-year olds; usually half-days.  The earliest
instance of public education.  "Pre-school" is usually the "kindergarten
prep" for 4-year olds, but can be anything with a slightly more accademic
leaning than "day-care."  I haven't heard "nursery school" in a long time.")
