Village Map
Follow the Lion’s Santa Express
The morning runs like a guided route. Parents get the facts fast, while kids see a Christmas village with stops worth exploring. Hover or tap any pin on the map to see what happens at that stop.
Ticket Station
Explains admission, family size, photos, time, and location up front.
Pancake Hall
Frames breakfast and entertainment as part of the village, not a generic meal block.
Photo Lodge
Uses Santa and real family photos as memory proof without making the hero photo-led.
Train Depot
Gives the parking-lot train ride a major visual role in the experience.
The Caboose
Collects glitter painting, coloring, holiday crafts, candy canes, and the Christmas Tree Maze.
Giving Workshop
Connects gifts, food, eyeglasses, hearing aids, phones, and laptops to Lions service.
Activity World
Characters Carry the Story
Every activity is one reusable card: a themed illustration, a short heading, and the practical detail parents need. The artwork builds the world; the words keep families oriented.
Pancake Hall
Breakfast Comes First
Start the morning with pancakes, sausage, cocoa, and festive tunes from Colleyville’s choirs and musicians before your family follows the train route through Santa’s Village.
Photo Lodge
Meet Santa and Keep the Memory
Visit Santa for photos and a few surprises for the kids, then stop by the free children’s vision screening the Colleyville Lions run in the same room.
Train Depot
Ride the Lion’s Santa Express
Warm up with hot cocoa and marshmallows, meet Dasher, then board the train. The parking-lot ride is a marquee attraction, and kids can hop back on for another lap while it is still running.
The Caboose
Crafts, Glitter, and Candy Canes
One playful stop gathers glitter painting, coloring, holiday crafts, candy canes, and the Christmas Tree Maze — the small moments that keep the visit active between breakfast and Santa.
Giving Workshop
Bring Something That Helps
Gifts, Christmas cards, shelf-stable food, eyeglasses, hearing aids, phones, and Windows laptops all connect the morning to practical Lions service.
Memory Gallery
Show Families This is Real
Photos from prior years sit alongside the illustrated world so families can see that Breakfast with Santa is a long-running Colleyville tradition, not a brand-new idea.

Giving Workshop
The Magic Does Something Useful
The service side of the morning stays warm and concrete. Families should know exactly what to bring and why the Lions are collecting it.
Bring a Gift or a Card
New, unwrapped gifts support North Texas children with a deployed military parent. Write a personal message on a Christmas card to brighten the day of our troops overseas.
Support Local Needs
Shelf-stable food stocks the GRACE Food Pantry. Used eyeglasses, hearing aids, cell phones, and laptops feed Lions recycling projects that put working equipment back into service.
Community Partners
Help Host Santa’s Village
Partner recognition is visible without taking over the family experience. It sits here, after families already understand what the morning is.
