Rally the corgi has sniffed out the Christmas events for kids in Frisco for 2026, and both land on one big Saturday. Breakfast with Santa starts the morning at The Grove at Frisco Commons on December 5, and Merry Main Street follows that afternoon at Frisco Square with a Santa parade, school choirs and the city tree lighting.

Breakfast with Santa

Breakfast with Santa

Expand to see the parent tip

Frisco’s Breakfast with Santa fills The Grove at Frisco Commons with three hour-long seatings on the morning of Merry Main Street.

Each seating includes breakfast, a visit and picture with Santa, crafts, a hot cocoa bar and a take-home favor, so kids get the full Santa experience before the afternoon festivities downtown.

Parent tip: Seatings sell out, so check ticket availability on the Play Frisco site soon. The 8 am slot leaves plenty of time to rest before Merry Main Street.

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.
