During this free holiday event, the kid’s department will be transformed into a festive holiday celebration sure to create childhood memories.  Parents can snap photos of their children meeting Santa or have a family photo taken by one of the elves.  Each child can participate in fun activities including making your own reindeer ears, snowflake ornament, holiday greeting card and coloring sheet to take home or give as gifts.

Parents can enjoy checking items off their shopping list while saving an extra 30 percent on their entire regular or sale priced children’s apparel purchases, and 40 percent off the entire stock of FAO Schwarz and Discovery Kids toys throughout the event.  Bon-Ton stores have a large selection of holiday dress wear, playwear, gifts and toys for kids of all ages.

Families are encouraged to post their photos with Santa on social media using hashtag #santafest.  Plus, those who share a photo with their favorite FAO Schwarz toy and post it on Instagram using the hashtags #returntowonder and #bontonstyle will be automatically entered for a chance to win one of three FAO Schwarz prizes totaling over $1750 each.  The grand prize will include the iconic eight-foot giraffe stuffed animal.
