Toys and gifts for ages birth-18
Hot chocolate + coffee station
Snacks + cookie station

HOW DOES IT WORK?

From 8am-1pm, only registered shoppers & their families may enter the Christmas Shop. Only one shopper per family should register, (Please do not register your children or other immediate family members). Walk-ins, (those who did not register,) are welcome from 1pm-2pm, (if supplies last).

Shopping times are scheduled in 30-minute increments, however, each shopper will have 25-minutes to shop once the floor opens.

Each registered shopper will be given a Triangle Toy Takeaway bag. Only one bag will be given per family.

Each shopper is allowed 10 points. Some items are 0 points (such as most stuffed animals and books), others could be 8 points (such as new bikes).

Shoppers will have the opportunity to get their gifts wrapped for free before they exit!
