The Santa Experience
We polled our social media followers and about 80% said they would not be taking their children to see Santa this year. With COVID cases rapidly on the rise it is understandable that parents are concerned about any in person contact. Well, there is good news. Now your children can see Santa live from home.
Get into the holiday spirit with a one-on-one live chat with Santa himself. Embark on a magical Elf-guided journey to the North Pole guided by Elf Pickles, Dimples, Bazzle and Tinsel. This is pricy one, but perhaps also the most memorable— starts at $64.95.
