What is Cookies with Santa?
Cookies with Santa is our annual holiday event where children come visit the museum (decorated for Christmas!) and meet with Santa. Activities for the kids include: photographs with Santa, Holiday crafts, letters to Santa, festive games & activities, and a decorated cookie to take home!
What happens when my child meets Santa?
When you check-in at the front desk for this event, your child will be given a nametag - it is important that this be visible so as to receive the correct gift. Your child will experience the magic of meeting Santa, and receive their gift (see below).
As CMAC does not have a volunteer photographer this year, parents are encouraged to take their own photos using their phones or cameras

What is the gift that my child receives from Santa?
Grownups who register their children for a Cookies with Santa Session are responsible for bringing in a gift for Santa to give to the child. With the rising prices of toys/shipments, we respectfully request you adhere to a price range of $15 or less; this helps to ensure all our friends feel equally special in the eyes of Santa.
When do I need to bring the gift?
We ask that you purchase or drop off an UNWRAPPED gift no later than Friday, December 6th before 5pm. Please keep in mind that gifts may also be purchased in our CMAC Gift Shop and we are happy to assist you over the phone at (336) 228-7997.
