•                - Enjoy the moment & remember your purpose. It isn't just about the perfect picture, it's the experience with your child(ren).

•                -Maintain a positive and happy mood even if you feel stressed about everything in life. Be in this moment. 
•                - There is no "set" amount of time. Some kids are more willing than others. Be mindful that everyone has to see Santa. Take the time you                          need, but also don't stay so long that you take time away from others.
•                 - Santa feels emotions too. People wish for happy and sad things. Sometimes Santa needs a moment of composure too.
