Children in Chicago are in for a special treat next month when the big man from the North Pole will stop by the Windy City for a meet-and-greet session.
The 2025 Santa Days experience is right around the corner in Chicago, giving area parents the chance to help their young ones meet Santa and submit their holiday wish lists.
While meeting with Jolly Saint Nick is the feature of the event, there are several other activities that attendees can look forward to for a full experience suitable for children in daycare in 60618.
The experience will begin with an elf-guided tour of the host venue’s appropriately-named Santa Suite. The tour will be followed immediately by the introduction of Santa to the event’s attendees. Parents will want to have their phone or camera ready to capture photos of their children with the day’s star as they share their holiday wish list. The gathering will give families with children enrolled at Kids’ Work Chicago Riverview an opportunity to bond after a long week.
A letter-writing station, face painting, and other holiday-themed crafts will be available to children at the event. Swiss hot cocoa and an assortment of sweets will also be accessible from the Swiss Chocolate Trolley to add to the festive environment.
The holiday experience has two scheduled dates, with the first starting on Friday, November 28, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The second date is December 12, from 3:00 to 6:00 PM. Swissôtel Chicago on East Wacker Drive will host the event, which costs $60 per person.
