Santa's Storytime
Interactive Story-Time & Photo-Op Experience with Santa
Santa’s Storytime is a unique interactive Meet and Greet experience with Santa Claus and his elves. Participants will pre-register online for a dedicated 45-minute time slot, which includes an interactive story-time & photo-op experience with Santa using your own cameras and smart phones.
Participants will also have the opportunity during their visit to send letters to the North Pole using Santa’s mailbox and receive personalized correspondence back from one of Santa’s trusted elves.
Gerrard Square will transform into Santa’s workshop, complete with decorated Christmas trees, lit garland, Nutcrackers, Reindeer, Snowmen, festive music and of course Santa and his trusted Elves.
All donations and a portion of the proceeds will benefit SickKids Foundation. The funds raised through this event will be allocated to the Possibilities Fund, supporting the highest priority needs at SickKids.
