Menomonee Falls Christmas Parade

Expand to see the parent tip

The Menomonee Falls Christmas Parade steps off at 4:30 pm at Harrison and Main Street, heads west, then turns south on Appleton Avenue and finishes at Arthur Drive.

It is a short, hour-long parade on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, which makes it an easy first holiday outing for younger kids before the cold really settles in.

Parent tip: Claim a curb spot along Appleton Avenue near the finish, where the crowds are usually thinner than at the Main Street start.

Kids scavenger huntFree

Where's Elfie? Scavenger Hunt

Expand to see the parent tip

Kids hunt for sneaky elves hidden inside participating downtown businesses and write down each elf’s name on a playing card.

Finished cards are entered to win a make-and-take craft with a local store, and every player brings a food item or donation for the Falls Area Food Pantry.

Parent tip: Pick a weekday afternoon when the shops are quiet so kids can search without a crowd.

Menomonee Falls Christkindl Market

Expand to see the parent tip

The fifth annual Christkindl Market turns downtown Menomonee Falls into a European-style holiday village, with indoor and outdoor vendors, German bands and German food.

For kids, the highlights are horse-drawn carriage rides through the historic district, live reindeer and pictures inside Santa’s Workshop.

Parent tip: Arrive near the 10 am opening for the shortest line at Santa’s Workshop, then do the carriage ride.

Plan your December

When each Menomonee Falls Christmas event for kids happens

Watch the parade on November 29, hunt for Elfie on any December afternoon, and save December 12 for Santa’s Workshop and the reindeer at the Christkindl Market.

Looking further afield? Our Wisconsin Christmas events for kids guide lists every confirmed event in the state, and we have city guides for Hartland, Milwaukee, Delafield and Racine. 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.
