In addition, for our younger visitors and those, young at heart, we have our free Christmas quiz (with prize) plus our singing reindeer's (and donkey) providing a show in their stables, Snowy the owl in her forest and Betty, our cuddly bear will be telling children’s stories from his log cabin. The very popular Gremlins will also be back with their Christmas show. Even the dinosaurs will be included in the festive activities. On selected days there will also be a panto! ‘Oh yes there is!’
We will also be open on special ‘Winter Wonderland’ evenings (6 pm – 8.30 pm) when all the daytime characters will be in action and lights will be twinkling through the garden creating a very special festive experience. Our house light show will be performing just to top off the evening. The giant will be waking up and telling his Christmas story with the magic tree and yes, we guarantee snow every evening!

The history of Christmas lights is a fascinating one that spans centuries and continents. Christmas lights are lights that are used for decoration in celebration of Christmas, often on display throughout the Advent and Christmastide seasons. They bring joy and warmth to the dark winter nights.
The origin of Christmas lights can be traced back to the tradition of lighting candles on Christmas trees, which was practised by some Christians in Germany in the 16th century. The candles were attached to the tree branches with wax or pins and were lit only for a few seconds to avoid fire hazards. The first electric lights for Christmas were in 1882.
