Virtual Grotto Experience

One of our favourite things to do at Christmas time is to take our children to see Father Christmas in his local grotto and listen to all the delightful things they say as they draw in close and whisper their wishes for christmas morning. Well, Covid.

So this year, FoMPS has your back. We have arranged with Father Christmas himself to hold an exclusive virtual grotto. You can book a time slot on Sunday 6th December and your child can have an arguably more special experience than usual! Slots are limited in number – December is his busiest month – so book early to avoid disappointment. All times will be between 1-3.30pm and your child will have an undisturbed 3 minutes to share their wishes and establish whether they are on the naughty or nice list.
