Every child can create a wonderful craft and get to tell Santa and Mrs. Claus what is on their list.  Craft activities are available all day while visits with Santa are from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The Children’s Shopping Boutique from 10:30 am to 3:30 pm, offers a wide range of gifts ranging from $1 to $10. Shoppers’ Helpers are on hand to help children ages 4 – 12 select presents for their friends and family members.   Free gift-wrapping and gift tags are included.

Also on view are Classroom Creations!  Students from the region have worked hard to create an object inspired by the Musical Tall Case Clock and these area all available for you to win. Place your bid for any that inspire you. The highest bidder will win that Classroom Creation!   Visit their display and enjoy their contribution.
