About 100 Balsam firs line the sidewalk at Town Square Park, each one decorated and themed by a Yorkville business, community group or family, and lit by the city’s parks crew.
It is an easy walk-and-point outing for kids, who can hunt for their favorite tree and spot new themes on every pass from December 1 into the New Year.
Parent tip: Go after dark so the tree lights are on, and dress warm since the whole walk is outside along the sidewalk.

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.
