Santa's Workshop
Families step into a snowy North Pole setting to meet reindeer at the stables and create reindeer food to take home for Christmas Eve. Children can contribute drawings or good deeds to help power the Christmas Spirit Generator and explore an interactive workshop filled with busy elves. The experience includes a personal visit with Santa, where children receive a Heart of Love to stuff their own keepsake teddy bear and take home an official birth certificate.
