## About

The Town of Prosper's library hosts a calm, sensory-friendly visit with Santa Claus for the town's 'Prosper Superstars', its program name for children with disabilities and special needs, and their families. Children can have their photo taken with Santa in a quieter, lower-stimulation setting than a busy mall or festival line, which helps kids who find noise, crowds and waiting hard. The evening also gives these families early access to a limited kids' Christmas Shoppe, where children can pick out holiday gifts for the people they love before the general holiday rush. The two-hour window on a Tuesday evening, ahead of the town's big Christmas festival that weekend, lets families come when it suits their child. The town calendar lists the event with the Community Library, while its description places it at Prosper Town Hall, so check with the library before you go.
