Pack up your sleigh and bring the whole family for breakfast and pajama party with Santa at Stones River Mall from 8-10 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 14.

Wear your favorite PJs while experiencing the grand arrival of Jolly Ol' Saint Nick by horsedrawn carriage.

Held in the Food Court, this year's festivities will include cookie decorating, art activity stations, balloon animals, face painting, and an interactive storytime with Nashville Ballet. Santa will also hand out a collectible Stones River Mall teddy bear to each child in attendance.

"What better way to start your holiday shopping season than with this family-friendly celebration!" said Melinda Noblitt, Stones River Mall's Marketing and Events Manager.

Tickets for the event are $5 each and will be donated to Beesley Animal Foundation. Space is limited, and tickets must be purchased in advance from the Mall Management Office.

Each ticket features a registration form that can be completed for a chance to win a $100 JCPenney gift card. Winner must be present at the event.
