## About

The City of Plano's Carpenter Park Recreation Center hosts a family breakfast with Santa on a Saturday morning in mid-December. Families share donuts and hot cocoa, children write their own Santa wish lists and make holiday crafts, and little ones get one-on-one time with Santa plus a souvenir photo they decorate themselves. The two-hour morning suits preschoolers and early-elementary children best, though siblings of any age can come along. The fee is charged per family rather than per person. Registration is by phone only — online registration is not offered — so call the recreation center to reserve a spot before it fills.
