Santa’s Workshop

Families can step into Santa’s Workshop at Jingle Bell Junction for a hands-on evening of building and creating with Fishers Parks. This free drop-in event is designed for makers of all ages, with staff from the Maker Playground guiding children and adults through basic woodshop building techniques that are approachable for different skill levels. Kids can practice using simple tools in a supervised environment, while caregivers work alongside them or watch nearby as projects take shape. The focus is on learning, doing, and having fun together, so families can leave with both finished creations and new skills.

The atmosphere is relaxed and cozy, with holiday movie shorts playing and plenty of popcorn and hot cocoa to enjoy while you build. Children are encouraged to come dressed in their favorite holiday pajamas, which adds to the festive feel and makes for cute photos. Because the event is come-and-go within the listed hours, it works well for families juggling busy schedules who still want a meaningful seasonal activity that does not require extra prep at home.
