Green Parks and Recreation turns its monthly Toddler Snack-tivity morning into a Santa visit, with pictures with Santa, Christmas-themed activities and holiday treats sized for little ones.
Families register for one of three sessions, which keeps the room calm and the wait short for toddlers who might be meeting Santa for the first time.
Parent tip: Arrive no more than 10 minutes before your registered session, and stay to help with the self-guided activities.

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.
A bedtime story after seeing SantaRally Takes the Train is a five-minute rhyming picture book about a corgi’s first ride on a California train, hand-painted in watercolor. $16.99 on Amazon, ages 0 to 8.
