The City of Simpsonville turns City Park into a walk-through holiday stroll on two December weekends, with a lit Christmas Fountain, a Christmas Candy Land of oversized candy lights and a gumdrop field at the playground.
Santa’s Workshop and the Christmas Stage host visits with Santa and live holiday performances, and families get free cocoa and cookies plus s’mores by the fire.
Parent tip: Saturday, December 5, also brings the city’s evening Christmas Market, so that is the night to do the stroll and some shopping together.

Heritage Park is home to the park’s miniature railway, and weekend afternoons give younger kids a daylight option before the evening crowds.

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.
