5 Reasons to Visit Santa HQ (Presented By HGTV)

Sharing is caring!

Santa’s HERE and you’d better head over to Santa’s Headquarters to see him soon!

I was so pleased to be invited to Washington Square (Portland) to meet with Santa at to check out the fun and excitement and meet the man himself. There was SO MUCH fun and excitement – you aren’t going to want to miss out on your visit this year! Here’s why….

1. Reservations mean less waiting!

so you aren’t spending hours waiting in line with kids who may become bored, tired, hungry… well you know how kids get when they have to wait a long time… I know that less wait means more fun!

2. Elf-Ray Vision is SO much fun!

You can download Elf-Ray Vision on iTunes and Google Play so you are ready to go when you get into the action. If you don’t have it don’t worry, Santa’s helpers have tablets ready for you are the kids to check out what the elves are up to. Simply hold it up to different “triggers” in the room and watch it come to life!

3. Two Photo Opps!

Not only do you get pictures with Santa, but you can also have pics taken in the “North Pole” which is filled with fun props like candy canes, signs, and more.

4. Super Fun Activities While We Wait!

Gone are the days of just waiting in line to see Santa. HGTV has brought not only Elf-Ray Vision, but also the Naughty-or-Nice-O-Meter and some fun things to play with! Fly Santa’s sleigh at his controls, Elf Yourself with a song and dance, or check out if you’ve been naughty or nice (spoiler – my kids barely got on the Nice List!). Parents can watch some fun holiday DIY on the strategically placed flat screens and get some tips & tricks from HGTV personalities like Chip & Joanna Gaines and the Property Brothers!
