A story for the drive home
A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.

The story of Christmas in Boynton Beach
Boynton Beach is named for Nathan Boynton, a Civil War major from Michigan who first saw this stretch of coast in 1894 and built the Boynton Hotel, which opened in 1897. Christmas for kids here is a sunny affair, with the city library on East Ocean Avenue hosting a holiday party and an ornament craft hour.
How Boynton Beach celebrates
The listed holiday programs in Boynton Beach are run by the Boynton Beach City Library in rooms on the first floor of City Hall. On Thursday, December 3, 2026, the Holly Jolly Holiday Party brings crafts, treats and games to the Community Room for children aged 5 to 12, with registration required. On Monday, December 21, a winter break session called School Is Out, Craft Time Is In has children from kindergarten to 5th grade make one ornament to keep and one to give. The library's address is on Ocean Avenue, the street where the town's first shops and its first post office went up in the 1890s.
Fun facts about Christmas in Boynton Beach
Byrd Spilman Dewey and her husband Fred S. Dewey filed the original plat for the Town of Boynton on September 26, 1898, and the town was officially incorporated in 1920. It took the name Boynton Beach in 1941. The Seaboard Air Line Railway arrived in 1926, and the 2020 census counted 80,380 residents.

- Winter break ornament crafts: The library's School Is Out, Craft Time Is In session has kids make one ornament to keep and one to give to a loved one.
- City Hall on Ocean Avenue: Both programs meet in first floor rooms of City Hall, on the avenue where Boynton's earliest businesses were built.
- A library with deep roots: Boynton's first library was started in 1911 by the Boynton Woman's Club and the state federation of women's clubs and was staffed by volunteers.
A fact for kids
Boynton's early farmers packed pineapples, tomatoes, mangoes and citrus fruit into crates and sent them across the country by train. A school built in 1913 is now the Schoolhouse Children's Museum and Learning Center.
Questions about Christmas in Boynton Beach
When was Boynton Beach founded?
Boynton Beach was founded on September 26, 1898, when Byrd Spilman Dewey and her husband Fred S. Dewey filed the original plat for the Town of Boynton. Official incorporation came in 1920, after 48 of the 50 qualified voters approved it on April 14.

The city is named after Nathan Boynton, a Civil War major and Michigan politician from Port Huron who built the Boynton Hotel. A community that broke away in 1931 used the name Boynton Beach first, then became Ocean Ridge in 1939, and the Town of Boynton took the name in 1941.

What did early settlers grow in Boynton?
