Where to Find Sensory Friendly Santas in the Bay Area

This post was most recently updated on November 15th, 2019

I still love visiting Santa with my teens.  And luckily for me, they indulge me every year.  So it is with great pleasure that I created this list of dates for Sensory Friendly Santa visits for those families with children that are ‘special’ in their own way.

Sensory Friendly Santa Visits are scheduled for November 24  – December 15, 2019 depending upon the shopping center.  The visit is free, but parents MUST register in advance to save a spot.  There are of course keepsakes and photo packages for sale at the event. Please RSVP to reserve your spot today! I’ve included links to the specific shopping center.
