Christmas at Disneyland - Santa services?

[twinsouvenirs]

Help! We have never gone anywhere for Christmas proper (we have always gone to WDW after Christmas) but the kids are a little older and I think we are ready to spend our first Christmas at Disneyland. However, my kids are a bit worried Santa won’t find us so far from home!

Do the official hotels/villas (Villas at Disneyland Hotel specifically) offer any assistance (for example, addresses for sending advance things) in this area? Does anyone have any planning tips for this or experience with this?

Finally, there used to be Christmas Tree chains at WDW where one family would have an artificial tree and then leave it for the next family throughout the Christmas season… each family would contribute a set of ornaments and each family kept one of each. Is that still a thing?

I haven't heard anything about the Christmas tree chain, but that's such a sweet idea. I bet you could get a tree and decorations at Target.

You can have items delivered to your hotel, so maybe you could wrap everything and ship it ahead of your trip.

I know it is not what you are looking for, but Santa will be in the lobby of all three Disney owned hotels as well as in both parks from the day after Thanksgiving to December 24.
