Expand to see the parent tip
North Ogden switches on the holiday lights at Barker Park and Santa rolls in on a fire truck, which is about as exciting an entrance as a preschooler could ask for.
The whole thing fits into one early-evening hour, so it works well for little kids who need to be home for dinner and bedtime.
Parent tip: Stand near the park entrance so the kids can see the fire truck pull in, and dress warmly since this is all outdoors.

Expand to see the parent tip
For four nights right before Christmas, Barker Park becomes The North Pole, a winter wonderland of lights and decorations where kids can visit Santa and see his reindeer.
The city adds hot cocoa, holiday crafts and photo chances with Santa, so it is a handy last stop for a wish list once school lets out for winter break.
Parent tip: Go on the first night or two for shorter lines, and bring your own camera for photos with Santa.

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.
