About Us
One of Santa's Sleighs.
Originally built in 1885, Santa's Sleigh Shop restored it in 2008.
Gifts were originally made of wood.
Santa was a wood worker and metal and plastic did not exist 1,741 years ago, so most of the gifts in the early days were made out of wood. This gliding horse was hand carved by Elf Dudley. Other early gifts were handmade - such as candles, clothing and food.
The elves start from scratch.
The elves start from an idea or a picture along with several pieces of wood and the next thing you know, with the help of a fully equipped wood working shop, they created an entire train. Toys like this have withstood the test of time lasting for 50 years or more

One of Santa's favorites.
One of Santa's favorites is this helicopter made out of 4 different kinds of wood. Behind him are some of Santa's favorites from Elf Jim Shore.
How about a train ride on Santa's backyard train.
If you are on your best behavior while going thru Santa's Workshop Experience, the elves may give you a chance to ride on Santa's backyard train. Santa's father built this train for Santa, so you might say Santa's father was also in the toy business. The train operates using a 6 volt marine battery and a 6 volt Ford starter motor. The engine after operating for more than 75 years is currently out of commission, but we will still give you a ride in one of the train cars.
It may even snow.
One of the highlights of the tour is when it snows. Everyone, even the adults, enjoy trying to catch the snowflakes. You never know what's right around the corner. It may be a snowball battle with the elves.

Who doesn't love a great train lay out.
In their spare time, the elves take great pride in working on their miniature village. This original layout at Santa's Workshop Experience was built by the older elves and was a smaller version of the one at the North Pole. This village got a make over for season 2022. The village is set up with Dept 56 buildings, people, vehicles, and accessories. It now has 2 lionel trains and a trolley.
Even parents and senior citizens love it.
A number of adults, including senior citizens, have told us they like this the best. They have told us that every time they come through, they see something different. They could look at it for hours. Our tour is handicapped accessible.
Our younger elves decided they wanted to build a miniature village for themselves, so in 2018 they began working on their own village. They have doubled the number of buildings in the original village and had it finished by Christmas 2019. Come see both and tell us which one you like the best.
Ian loves trains…
The children, of course, love the trains and the miniature village, and enjoy going though the exhibit again and again. Ian’s family and other families have made it part of their Christmas Family Traditions and have come every year for 6 years now.
