It doesn't exist here that I know of. When I was in Germany, my neighbors all did this. It was a large cone-shaped container made of colored paper or colored construction paper/cardboard that was almost as tall as the kids. They were filled with inexpensive toys, candy, and school supplies. The parents made them and took them to the school before the day that school started. Then on the first day of school the parents went to school with the child and stayed all day. The child was given the cone.
