The family run small business ran without missing a beat, kept the kids engaged and corralled, parents were able to mingle (except during the kids vs adults dodgeball game), and all the kids left nicely tired and with smiles on their face. The assortment of sports and games was great. Equipment in good condition. Plenty of space in the first floor of the mall. Easily able to get things in and out if you park back on the lower level and cart whatever in. Nice sized area to bring pizza and cake and drinks for the kids. No booze allowed, adults! The family set things up and cleaned up. The family could not have been nicer, chill, and attentive.

Operated by DreamWorks, this is North Point Mall's Shrek-themed Santa experience from Nov. 8 - Dec…read more 24, 2014. It's an adventure in a multi-room gingerbread house in the lower-level center court of the mall. We recently took our 14-month-old so that he could meet Santa. Because I think this is probably really cool if you have older kids, I almost gave it three stars, but because it ends up being a commercialized racket, I dropped it to two stars at the end of writing this review. Brief description: At no cost, you make an appointment to go on what they claim is a 15-minute adventure to see Santa. Before entering the house, you take a family photo with Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey outside. Then the adventure entails visiting four different rooms in the house as you journey to the North Pole. It's an elf-guided interactive experience that involves about three families at a time, depending on the number of family members. Eventually, you reach the end of the journey to meet and have pictures taken with Santa in a private room. After that, you are ushered out to the gift shop to wait for your pictures and select a photo package. Now for the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. (1) You have an appointment. Good: You get to plan your schedule without the hassle of a long line filled with other germy children. Bad: If you show up without an appointment because you didn't know you needed one, you end up like my cousin with two dressed up kids in tow who find out that they won't be meeting Santa because all of the slots are full that day. Ugly: You have an appointment but the entire experience lasts more than 15 minutes. Case in point: We had an appointment for 1:46, started the adventure around 1:50, and didn't meet Santa until about 2:25. (2) You go on an adventure. Good: It's an interactive experience as you wander the gingerbread house with your guide. In one room, each family uses a computer screen to design a sleigh on which to travel to the North Pole. Depending on family size, the elf puts you in an area with enough screens to (hopefully) accommodate each member. In the next room, you board the sleigh and go on a ride (i.e., watch a motion-inducing movie with special effects of slight vibration and a gentle wind machine) to the North Pole. In the final room before meeting Santa, you wait in an area with a few seats and a handful of computer screens with a game for the kids to play as the elves call you back by family to meet Santa. Bad: While the activities were awesome for older kids, my little guy couldn't appreciate them, and my husband and I didn't know what to expect based on the limited description on the North Point Mall website. It doesn't seem like there is a way to skip the interactive experience and go straight to Santa because there are groups in each room at any given time. Ugly: If you are claustrophobic, this is NOT for you. The rooms are dark and very small with many people crammed inside. Also, it gets hot in that little house. My child was sweating by the time we met Santa. (3) You don't know what you will pay. Good: There's no up-front cost for the adventure, so you could just hit this up for the experience and little ornament they give you at the end. Bad: You don't know what you will end up paying. At the end, an elf rattles off the photo package "options" so quickly that it's impossible to really understand what you're getting, other than the fact that for $30, it sounds like you get two 5x7s of what the staff deemed was your child's best photo with Santa. For $50, you walk away with the option of digitally downloading all of the pictures with Santa (for us, about six or seven), your family photo, and a picture of the sleigh you designed. I could have lived without the latter items, but it was our only option to get all of the pictures with Santa. Ugly: YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WILL END UP PAYING. I cannot stress how much this part sucks. First, the only picture they let you actually see is the one they decide is the best. They print it for you, so you can't even look at a computer to pick the one you think best represents your child's Santa experience. For us, they picked a photo where my son was wide-eyed with fear only because it was the one picture in which he was looking at the camera. Second, your older child is likely to pitch a fit if you decide you don't want to buy the package that includes the picture of the sleigh. This happened to the family behind us. It wasn't pretty. Third, you walk out from seeing Santa into a gift shop to wait for your pictures. A GIFT SHOP. A Shrek-filled gift shop right before Christmas. Good luck saying no to your child while you wait another 10 minutes to see your picture and then another 10 minutes while you wait to pay. Best part? They declined our credit card, but we later learned via e-mail from American Express that it was declined because Adventure to Santa doesn't accept American Express. Maybe somebody should tell the employees.
