The Village’s Winter Festival takes over Commons Park for an afternoon and evening, and it is Royal Palm Beach’s biggest holiday night of the year.
Last year it featured carnival rides, a skating rink, a rock wall, a kids craft station and local dance performances, then the lighting of a 28-foot Christmas tree and photos with Santa after dark.
Parent tip: Come in the afternoon for the rides while lines are short, then stay for the tree lighting and Santa photos in the evening.

Santa settles in at the Commons Park Sporting Center on two Saturday evenings in December for photos with the Village’s families.
Last year the photos were free and open to kids, grown-ups and even pets, which makes it a low-key second chance if the Winter Festival line was long.
Parent tip: Bring your own phone or camera for the photo, and come right at 5 pm for the shortest wait.

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.
