The centerpiece of this festive family event is a massive snow hill crafted from 20 tons of fresh real snow, where kids can experience the thrill of snow sledding right in the heart of Silicon Valley. Families can also take charming horse-drawn donkey cart rides, meet Santa Claus and his elves, enjoy interactive holiday face painting and bounce houses, and watch the official lighting of the towering Campbell community holiday tree accompanied by four stages of live choirs. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Flat, wide civic plaza and closed street corridors allow comfortable navigation for strollers and wagons throughout the event footprint. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Quiet nursing and diaper changing stations located inside the Campbell Community Center lobby adjacent to the square. • Age Suitability: Wonderfully designed for toddlers, preschoolers, school-age kids, and family groups. • Sensory Tips: Snow hill area can be bustling with laughter; quieter craft areas and relaxed seating located on the library lawn next to the square. ## Similar picks in San Jose - [Morgan Hill Holiday Lights Parade](https://grassyknees.com/san-jose/activities/morgan-hill-holiday-lights-parade--listing-6d836b2eade36d93c2555147) — Sat, Dec 5 · 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM · Monterey Road, Morgan Hill · Free · checked Oct 28.
