Taking a "Photo with Santa" during the holidays is a cherished tradition for families around the world during the holiday season. However, for individuals with Down syndrome, this time of the year can create extra stress as capturing a photo with Santa in a busy mall, with long lines and large crowds, can often be overwhelming. As a result of our cherished relationship with GiGi's, The Judd Team, in partnership with Lizzie Cannon Photography, has had the chance over the past four years to sponsor a magical event that offers a private session for families to visit and make memories with the jolly man himself!
At the event, appropriately named the Holly Jolly Jubilee, families arrived at GiGi's Playhouse Sacramento and were greeted by elves, played festive games, enjoyed holiday treats, and eagerly entered Santa's private quarters which was adorned with twinkling lights, and festive decorations, all adding to the charm of each photograph. Parents happily snapped photos as their little ones who approached to sit on his lap, some with wide eyes in awe, while others confidently shared their Christmas wishes. Each family had the opportunity to pose for a memorable photo with Santa and Mrs. Claus ensuring memories that will last well beyond the holidays!
The event Playhouse was filled with many smiling faces, each radiating joy and excitement as families gathered together to create lasting memories. The atmosphere was filled with laughter and the sounds of holiday music, enhancing the overall experience and making it even more magical. The event not only fosters a sense of community but also strengthens family bonds while celebrating the magic of the season and the joy of giving.
The Judd Team is honored to support GiGi's Playhouse in their mission to provide inclusive and joyful experiences for children with Down syndrome and their families...especially during the holidays!
