Expand to see the parent tip
Johns Creek opens its holiday season at the Boardwalk at Town Center, where the city lights its 40-foot holiday tree during an evening block party.
Music performances fill the stage and holiday llamas are part of the lineup, which tends to be the moment kids talk about on the drive home.
Parent tip: Come before the tree lighting so kids can see the llamas while the crowd is still thin, and dress warm for an outdoor evening.

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.
