I look forward to the girls annual visit to see Santa Claus, and the uncertainty of how they will react? In years past there have been tears, lots of tears, candy canes, quick hugs and this year might have been the best visit yet. The girls and I were invited by International Plaza and Bay Street to visit the Santa's Flight Academy in Tampa, Florida. I'll be sharing below all about the experience and why you need to add it to your list of MUSTS this holiday season.
What did I think of the experience? An interactive experience like no other. I don't want to spoil all the fun, but lets just say you and your children, transform into elves and take part in the magic of being an elf next to Santa. I would plan on spending at least 20-30 minutes going through the experience, playing in the pretend snow and then visiting with Santa. The girls could not get enough of playing in the snow, making snow angels and getting all the one-on-one time with Santa himself. In years past the girls have been hesitant to see him, but this year was very different. Of course he knew we were coming, greeted them by name and chatted with them about Mrs.Claus, being on the nice list and other festive banter.
All I can say is add this experience to your list, it was magical.
Where: Inside the International Plaza and Bay Street
When: Mon-Sat: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM
Sun: 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM
Thank you so much International Plaza and Bay Street for hosting us, we enjoyed every minute spent in the academy. This is the first time the girls walked directly up to Santa, with confidence + smiles painted on there faces, hugged him and were not shy. I've never met a better suited jolly fellow in the red suit.
