1: Put any gifts you want Santa to deliver in a bin bag. When he arrives, he'll phone so you can put them outside for him.
 

2: Please print the name directly on the gift, as tags can easily fall off.
 

3: Please let the children open the door when Santa knocks, but have an adult present so the children can ask if Santa can come in.

(This is to remind them never to let strangers in).
 

4: Please have a seat for Santa such as a firm back dinning room chair which works well.

( It will help bring Santa down to the same level as the Children.)
 

5: If you can, avoid seating Santa near the fire place or radiators to help keep him cool as a sweaty Santa is not a good idea.
 

6: If you place the chair near the Tree, it would make a nice background for the photos.
 

7: Some children are afraid of Santa, please, never force your child to sit with Santa for a photo. (It will only make things harder for you in future.)
 

8: The TV can be a very big distraction, so if it could be turned off or paused during the visit, it would be a great help.
 

9: Payment should be made in advance, to avoid any chance of the children seeing Santa getting paid to visit.
 

10: At the end when Santa comes to leave, please keep the children away from the door or windows, as they could  be disappointed to not see Santa’s Sleigh.
 

11: If you have a dogs, please keep hold of them or put them in another room.

(Santa has been bitten in the past.)

The visit should last around 20-25 minutes and you may take as many photos as you like and Video it. If you take a photo from behind the children, so you can’t see their faces, we would love a copy for the website/Facebook.
