16. BREAKFAST WITH SANTA

Breakfast with Santa combines the magic of Christmas with the joy of a cozy morning meal. Traditionally organized by community groups or churches, this event brings Santa Claus to life as families share breakfast, laughter, and holiday wishes.

  1. HOMEGROWN SANTA SURPRISE: Dress Dad, Grandpa, or a family friend as Santa, complete with a red suit and jolly spirit. Serve Santa’s favorites, like pancakes and hot cocoa.

  2. NORTH POLE PANCAKE BAR: Set up a DIY pancake station with toppings like whipped cream, marshmallows, and sprinkles. Encourage kids to make pancakes Santa would love.

  3. SANTA STORYTIME: After breakfast, “Santa” reads a Christmas book or tells tales about life at the North Pole. Kids can ask questions about reindeer and elves.

  4. HOLIDAY CRAFT STATION: Include a craft corner where kids can make ornaments or cards for Santa to take back to the North Pole.

  5. PHOTO BOOTH FUN: Create a holiday photo booth with props like Santa hats and elf ears. Kids can snap memorable photos with “Santa” and each other.
