Highly recommend! Santa Mark came early and was very well prepared. All the kids had a great time and were happy to know that they made the nice list!
Santa Mark was wonderful for all ages. We enjoyed his visit and will definitely have him again next year!

He was great with the little children
They were so amazed.
Santa Claus
Interacts wonderfully with the kids and is so realistic….one child even told their parents”the real Santa came with a real beard not like the one at the mall” . Took picture with each child and gave candy canes also sang with guitar and had kids dancing!
He was great. Knew exactly how to entertain multi ages of children. Would recommend him for sure!
Santa Claus
To say Santa Mark was wonderful would be an understatement. He didn’t just ask the children what they wanted for Christmas, he explained what it was like to live in the North Pole. He told them about the animals that lived there and the climate. He then read them a Christmas story. The final thing that stood out was that he gave them a Christmas coin. My Grandson was over the moon.. Wh had just watched the Polar Express movie and the ending was the gift of a little bell. My Grandson immediately made the connection.and the coin was put in a very safe place!
Can’t say enough about Santa Mark except to say, I hope he can visit next year!

Thank you for your kind words Connie. I had a lot of fun with the kids. They are bundles of joy!
We had Santa Mark at a small gathering for families at our corporate headquarters and he was fun, kind, and caring. The kids loved him and he truly embodied the spirit of Christmas. Great photos, he took his time talking to each child, fun had by all.
Santa Mark was a pleasure to work with. He is calm and sweet with the children. He sang while playing his guitar, read a story, and visited with the children. His outfit, chair, and gold coins he gave the kids were all a hit! Highly recommed.

Thank you so much Katie. You have a wonderful family and I truly enjoyed the experience of bringing Christmas cheer into your home. Looking forward to it again next year! Santa Mark
We hired Santa Mark for our Sensitive Santa Christmas Party at We Rock the Spectrum Fort Myers. Santa Mark communicated with us prior to the event by text and email; He also called us 10 minutes before his arrival time. He went above and beyond for all of the children at our event who were primarily all special needs children. We look forward to working with Santa Mark again!

2. He was organized and ready to go upon arrival.
3. He engaged with everyone at the event (adults and children), but spent extra time speaking with each child.
4. He read 'Twas The Night Before Christmas & played his guitar and led carol singing.
