Brunch with Santa

Brunch with Santa and Friends

Expand to see the parent tip

Santa comes early to the La Verne Community Center for a pancake-themed brunch aimed squarely at young kids, with a hand-crafted hot chocolate on every table.

Children build ornaments, pose for holiday photos with friends and take their turn for a picture with Santa. Everyone in the party, adults included, needs to preregister.

Parent tip: Register adults as well as kids. The city requires preregistration for everyone attending, so walk-ups may be turned away.

Snow day

Winter Wonderland

Expand to see the parent tip

La Verne’s 27th annual Winter Wonderland trucks real snow into Heritage Park for two snow runs and two snow play lands, with sliding saucers provided.

Each child’s ticket also covers arts and crafts, hot cocoa and a treat at Mrs. Claus’ Cozy Kitchen, and a visit with Santa at the gazebo. Food and craft vendors are on site for parents doing early Christmas shopping.

Parent tip: Buy by Sunday, November 29 to save $2 per child and skip the cash-only line on the day. Dress kids for snow with gloves, boots and a jacket, and leave dogs at home.

Plan your December

When each La Verne Christmas event for kids happens

Book Brunch with Santa for December 5, then buy Winter Wonderland tickets before November 29 so the snow day on December 12 costs less and skips the cash line.

Looking further afield? Our California Christmas events for kids guide lists every confirmed event in the state, and we have city guides for Ontario, Chino Hills, Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana. 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.
