Santa, Noodle and the rest of the team are delighted to be returning to Avondale Forest Park this year for lots of fun and hijinks and they can’t wait to meet you. Experience the winter wonderland as The Forest Train rides through the breath-taking mature forest park. Keep an eye out for Noodle the lazy Elf who is running late for work! Stop off at his little house in the woods and see if you can wake him up (this is not an easy task!) Then, hop back on the train and it’s off to see Santa. When the train reaches its secret destination deep in the forest, Noodle will lead all the families into the workshop. The Elf Floor Manager will greet the children and there will be plenty of songs, stories and a little bit of elf mischief. From his office, Santa and his elves will call each family in to see him individually. He will be working in his office at his very cluttered desk and checking his big book where he knows something about everyone, young and old! After meeting with Santa each child will receive a wooden themed gift and every family can get a special photo taken with the big man in red. In the old barn a carnival themed event will take place which will keep old and young entertained. There will also be a special story time on the hour and there will be hot drinks and snacks to be had in our cozy seated area.
