It’s that time of the year when Santa Claus comes back to town. And if you have little ones, they are probably on pins and needles waiting to meet St. Nick — even if they have a meltdown once they get up to the chair to say hello. (Don’t worry, it happens to the best of us.)
If you’re looking to commemorate the holiday season with a picture, here’s where you can get your picture with Santa. Many of the malls and shopping centers let you reserve a time.
