Santa popped in for a warm cup of hot cocoa yesterday!

(In case you were wondering, he takes it steaming hot, shaken, and with a perky peppermint stick on the side!)

We chatted about Rudolph, the elves, chocolate cookies, and, of course, the Best Toy Stores in Denver.

I listed some of Santa’s favorites below. Happy shopping!

With FOUR locations in greater Denver and the most unique and sought after selection of toys and gifts, I can see why Santa adores this store! You can find something for all the little ones on your list.
