For the first time last year we took a visit to Hobbledown in Epsom, Surrey for their wonderful Toddler Lunch With Santa.
After a terrible journey due to horrendous traffic I arrived with two very miserable toddlers! I booked in through the screaming and made our way to the play barn, found a table and thankfully peace was restored.
After a good run around in the brilliant soft play area that also has a cafe to serve a much needed coffee a friendly elf came to lead us into the cosy hut where we would be meeting Santa.
The children all sat at the table while cute gingerbread men were handed out for the children to decorate.
Following this a yummy packed lunch was served whist Santa made his grand appearance to sit with us whist we ate.
The children were then called up one at a time to have a chat and collect a present from Santa.
Nice and full we waved goodbye and went to have a look at Santa’s reindeer and a couple of very cute donkeys, and then finally had a run about in the huge sandpit before heading home.
This is such a wonderful day out for toddlers with a real mix of things to do. You also have the option of paying for entry to the rest of Hobbledown which is a really good day out with plenty to explore.
The only issue I had is that it is listed as simply a craft activity on the internet so number five couldn’t actually take part due to his allergies. If I had known in advance this is something I could have provided my self so that he didn’t feel left out.
