afternoon. “We built a village by hand, and we painted all sorts of Christmas decorations.”
The building’s interior is set up like an exclusive golf course just for kids, with nine holes of mini golf in the mid- dle of a ring of seven bouncy houses and numerous games. And in the middle of the mini golf sits a Christmas village, ready to be explored.
There’s also an area set aside espe- cially for the littlest of holiday part- iers, with a bouncy house reserved for young kids so parents can breathe a lit- tle easier.
“Parents can come and not fear that their kids 4 and under are going to get trampled,” Mason said.
If kids visiting the winter wonderland aren’t busy playing mini golf or visiting the new Candyland bouncy house, they can try their hand at a variety of games, including in atable basketball, a pit- stop challenge during which they race to change tires on an old truck – “The kids are just loving that,” Mason said – a bean bag toss, hula hoops, a cow-milk- ing contest, and plenty of photo oppor- tunities, such as sticking their heads through a cut-out of a gingerbread man or sitting on Santa’s sleigh.
And speaking of the Big Man him- self, Santa Claus will visit Home for the Holidays on Dec. 19, bringing extra Christmas cheer.
said parents can purchase a punch card and get in free with their kids on sub- sequent visits. There’s also a special for Toddler Tuesday, during which kids 5 and under get in for $5.
Mason also o ers an area for private birthday parties, with space blocked o for the party-goers, along with a private bounce house, three holes of golf, and three tables.
“Those are really starting to book up, so that’s good,” Mason said.
And once all the playing starts to wear on a visitor, they can wander over to a concessionaire’s space to buy sweets, drinks – including hot choc- olate – non-dessert foods, and check out vendors with Christmas items like wreaths.
Since it’s the rst year for Home for the Holidays, Mason said she’s still trying to work out bugs in the system, but believes that support exists for an indoor winter option for families. Plus, it’s a way to show she operates the Flat- head Fun businesses year-round.
“We’re having a lot of fun,” Mason said.
Entrance to the winter wonder- land costs $8 per person, but Mason
