Morning At The North Pole With Santa 2024 Recap

Santa Claus came to Kansas City and oh what fun we had at Morning At The North Pole at The Mint in Lenexa.

We were thrilled to have Fry Orthodontics as our photo stop sponsor as they hosted the most adorable Grinch-themed photo stop beautifully created by Popping Party & Events. Our attendees made their way through the event taking part in an abundance of holiday fun along the way. They made ornaments, gingerbread crafts and bracelets and prepared reindeer food for the big night. They played holiday tunes on instruments, sat for the most adorable face painting, took a crack at a reindeer games obstacle course and wrote the best letters to Santa before they made their way to see the big man.

A visit to Santa was the perfect way to get those wishlists to him before he took to the skies.

In addition, they decorated cookies, got their wiggles out on a soft play playground and met Alastair Heim, author of “Dr. Seuss’s How The Grinch Lost Christmas!” and heard him do a fun and animated reading of that book and others he’s written.

In the spirit of the season, attendees dropped off so many donations of diapers, wipes, peanut butter and jelly to benefit Operation Breakthrough.

We are already looking forward to doing it again in 2025!

Thank you to our magic makers
