This year we are offering a Little Seedlings train-themed journey for children and families, complete with interactive elements and a meeting with Santa himself!
Take in the atmosphere as you arrive at our enchanting forest, and after a warm welcome from the elves at Sleighbell Station, children will get to experience snowy scenes, spot woodland characters, find hidden nutcrackers, all culminating in the chance to meet Santa
Your experience will then continue with a chance to meet Santa Claus - children are encouraged to share their excitement, wishes and stories before receiving their gift
Event highlights:
- Magical journey: our elves have been working hard to create a theatrical experience for your little ones. Please note there is no real trains involved in the experience
- Fun activities: christmas wishes, snowball fights and more. Your child will only be encouraged to join in where they feel comfortable
- Meet Santa: bring your children to meet Santa Claus and share their Christmas wishes
- Photo opportunities: capture the moment with a professional photo with Santa
- Gift from Santa: every child will receive a gift from Santa
