The MainPlace Mall is hosting a Santa pictures event for children with special needs on Dec. 3

MainPlace, a three-story super-regional shopping center in Santa Ana, California, will host “Sensory Santa,” a sensory-friendly opportunity for children with special needs and their families to enjoy a visit and private photo session with Santa Claus in a calming environment before the shopping center opens to the public.

The event takes place in the “Elf on the Shelf: Santa’s Magical Photo Adventure” Santa Set in Macy’s Court from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Sunday, December 3rd.

Professional photo packages range from $39.99 to $49.99. Because space is limited, to attend this event, advance registration is required. Guests making an advance reservation will receive a free personalized phone call from Santa before their visit.
