Top reasons to visit mall Santa early in the season


I know, I know, it's only November, and we haven't even celebrated Thanksgiving yet! Why oh why, then, is Santa already setting up shop in the mall? I, for one, think it's a great idea. Yes, it's a bit early, but the holiday season is so hectic that sometimes it pays off to be early.  Here are some reasons why you want to schedule your mall Santa visit as early as possible:

Fewer crowds, shorter lines

Not many people are thinking about Santa early on in the season, so the lines to see him will be shorter. That means you spend less time in lines and more time with Santa. Also, Santa won't be as rushed, and his elves won't be hurrying you out of the photo booth.

Less stress for you

Holiday weekends fill up with parties, family gatherings, Nutcracker shows, and other holiday activities. Schedule your Santa visits early so you have more time to relax in between events.

You can use your photo with Santa on your holiday cards

If you take your photo with Santa early, there will be plenty of time to include it in  your holiday card design!

You have time to look for the perfect present

The post office works overtime during the holidays and everything takes longer to ship. So schedule your visit to Santa extra early, and eavesdrop on their conversation so you know exactly what your little one is adding to their holiday wish list.

Find out when Santa is scheduled to appear at your local mall! Here's the schedule for the Great Mall of the Bay Area, Stanford Shopping Center, Valley Fair Mall, and Hillsdale Mall.
