Advent activity 22 - Santa at Seven Stories

It has been a very busy month and I was really pleased when the last weekend before Christmas came! Stuart finished work with a bad cold though and Harry was quite poorly too so things were a bit quieter than expected. We visited Santa at Seven Stories this year, which was really good. 

We were entertained by two elves who talked to the children while we listened out for Santa's bell. Santa came through and talked to everyone as a group and the children asked him questions before the elves handed out presents (Christmas themed books) and everyone saw Santa individually in his grotto. This style worked well for us as it gave the boys chance to become familiar with Santa before seeing him at close quarters.
