I’m pretty sure the lines up will be crazy, so come prepared with snacks and toys.
In some of the places I mention below, you can book your time and avoid the lineup, which I believe will be a good idea.

Before you leave the house please check the link to confirm Santa dates and hours, which might be changed. It is a good idea to wear Christmas decorations such as lapel pins that can be designed by yourself, which will make you more integrated into Christmas.
