Jurupa Valley Tree Lighting Celebration

Expand to see the parent tip

Jurupa Valley flips the switch on its community tree outside City Hall on Limonite Avenue, kicking off the season with holiday entertainment and festive photo spots.

Kids can meet Santa for pictures, decorate cookies and try the activity tables before the lighting, which makes the two-hour window feel full without a long wait in the cold.

Parent tip: Get in the Santa photo line first, then decorate cookies while the crowd builds toward the lighting.

JARPD Breakfast with Santa

Expand to see the parent tip

The Jurupa Area Recreation and Park District serves its Breakfast with Santa at the Jurupa Community Center on Pedley Road in two morning seatings.

Each $12 Santa’s Special covers breakfast, one holiday craft, a visit with Santa Claus and a printed photo to take home, so families leave with a keepsake already in hand.

Parent tip: Pick the early seating for toddlers who melt down by late morning. Pets are not allowed, so leave the family dog at home.

When each Jurupa Valley Christmas event for kids happens

Start with the free Friday tree lighting at City Hall, then book a Breakfast with Santa seating for the next Saturday. Breakfast tickets are limited to two seatings, so buy them early.

Looking further afield? Our California Christmas events for kids guide lists every confirmed event in the state, and we have city guides for Norco, Riverside, Fontana and Ontario. The national search sorts every event by distance from your town.

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.
