In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', Twinklies are found within a blue present located in front of the giant [[wikipedia:Christmas tree|Christmas tree]] of [[Freezeezy Peak]]. Once the box has been opened with the [[Beak Buster]], the Twinklies request [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]]'s help to protect them from the [[Twinkly Muncher]]s as they try to reach and light up the tree.

When the Christmas tree is completely lit, the Twinklies tell the duo to "be a star" in order to find their reward, meaning they need to [[Flight|fly]] through the tree's star three times to make a [[Jiggy]] appear.
