- Visit Santa
We spent about an hour and a half to visit almost everything. Of course, since there were only a few families there, we didn't encounter long lines. Hubby and I tried to guide Big B to different activities, but for the most part, we let him do whatever he wanted to do. He was most excited about the fake snow in the Snow Room, he even made a snow angel. He also enjoyed decorating the gingerbread cookies.
This is an attraction that is definitely geared towards the younger kids; I think two to six, maybe seven, years old. Not that older kids won't have fun, but the magic of Santa certainly helps bring out the charm of the place. Overall, I like the idea of having a winter-wonderland to take the kids to. I do think that the ticket price is a bit too much. I was also surprised to find that face painting costs $15 and upward. Of course, I have never paid for Big B to get his face painted, whether at a party, event, or amusement park; according to hubby, this is the going rate.
