Neenah leans into its Hallmark Channel nod as one of the 25 merriest Christmas towns with a free evening of twinkling lights, live mannequin windows and festive surprises along the downtown streets.
Kids can meet Santa and his reindeer, and the same night opens A Very Neenah Christmas Market in the lit-up Galloway Christmas Village, where huts of local makers and food vendors stay open through Sunday.
Parent tip: Come Friday evening for Santa and the reindeer, then return on the weekend if you want a calmer stroll through the market huts.

Neenah Parks and Recreation serves a pancake breakfast at the Washington Park shelter, then shows a 30-minute version of The Grinch and lets families pose for a photo with the Grinch himself.
The morning wraps up with a candy cane hunt outdoors in the park, so it is part breakfast, part movie and part treasure hunt.
Parent tip: Dress the kids for the weather since the candy cane hunt is outside, and enroll early because the city may cancel if sign-ups run low.

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.
