Santa Cares: Private Santa Photos for Kids with Special Needs Sunday

Santa Claus will be available to visit with children from 8-10 a.m. Walk-ins are welcome.

All kids, and parents, deserve a special visit with Santa and a photo that captures their holiday excitement. Visits with Santa often require standing in a long line and weathering some loud noise and frantic activity around you — a tough experience for many children, but particularly those with special needs.

This Sunday, children with disabilities will be welcome to a special time with Santa to get that perfect picture and share their Christmas list. The event will be from 8-10 a.m. at Manassas Mall, 8300 Sudley Road.

Walk-ins are welcome, but anyone who wishes to RSVP can register online through Friday. Reservations are still available from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.
