Happy Holidays, friends! If you’re looking for a Santa Claus mall visit in Metro Detroit, then search no further. I’ve got all of the details you need for booking your reservation with Santa George at Great Lakes Crossing Outlets and Twelve Oaks Mall. Today’s post is sponsored by Great Lakes Crossing Outlets and Twelve Oaks Mall, and I’m excited to share with you this exciting holiday news!


The holiday season has officially begun and I’ve been busy planning fun, holiday activities for the family. Although this year has been a challenging time because of the coronavirus pandemic, Travis and I want to do our best to make Christmastime special for the kids. One very special activity that I know the kids will love is visiting Santa Claus. 

I recently discovered Santa George will be visiting the malls at Twelve Oaks (Novi) and Great Lakes Crossing Outlets (Auburn Hills). The traditional event will be slightly different, however, to keep everyone healthy and safe. We feel comfortable taking the kids to see Santa because both malls will be implementing precautionary measures, such as social distancing and wearing a mask.
