Santa makes a last stop in Tooele before Christmas for photos at City Hall on Main Street.
It falls during the school break, so it is an easy after-lunch outing to get one more picture with him.
Parent tip: Arrive near 4 pm to beat the end-of-day rush, and have the kids dressed in their holiday best for the photo.

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.
