THIS WAY THEIR CHILDREN HAVE GIFTS TO OPEN ON CHRISTMAS MORNING FROM BOTH THE PARENTS AND FROM SANTA. CHRISTMAS PARTY - FOR OUR ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY, WE TAKE OVER A MASSIVE CHURCH SANCTUARY. WE HAVE A REAL SANTA COME OUT TO VISIT THE KIDS. WE OFFER GAMES AND CRAFTS WHILE THEY WAIT TO OPEN THEIR GIFTS. SNACKS AND DRINKS ARE AVAILABLE AS WELL.
