The Christmas Store

Where shopping is Just for Kids.

Parents:

Bring your kids to the PERC Building and relax while your children shop with the elves for a special gift for adults on their list.  After shopping, the children can make a Christmas ornament and decorate a cookie before visiting with Santa.  Be sure to bring your camera!

This child directed activity is designed to encourage a child’s independence and to give them an opportunity to celebrate the joy of giving.  This is achieved by allowing them to make their own choices in selecting a gift they believe the recipient would enjoy then letting them wrap the gift themselves.

Kids 4 to 10 years old:

With the help of Santa's Elves and special fun Christmas Money, you can shop in the Christmas Store to buy up to 6 presents for the special adults on your list.  Then The elves will help you wrap your gifts before you take them home to put under your tree.

All Kids:

You will be able to make a craft to take home, decorate a cookie, and visit with Santa!
