On Mr and Mrs Claus last day in the grotto they were sad to say goodbye. They have loved meeting every single one of you and loved hearing about what the children would like for Christmas. Everything from Iphone's and Ipads to emu's and pieces of wood, they've all been added to children's Christmas lists this year. They are needed back in the North pole now to finish the preparations for Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas from Mr and Mrs Claus, the elves and Reindeers!!!!!!!!
