Reindeer Food: This year, Santa has given the secret recipe for his magical Reindeer Food to the Santa Experience in Ilac Centre Dublin. Rudolph and the other reindeer get very hungry on their journey around the world! The Magical Reindeer food comes in a beautiful hand tied bag complete with a tag.

Be sure to get some and hang the food on your tree until Christmas Eve. Sprinkle it outside just before bedtime for Rudolf and the other reindeer so they know exactly where your house is!

Personal Letter and Nice List Certificate: You also can get your very own personal letter from Santa Claus himself straight from the North Pole to your doorstep! Based on the information you provide Santa will create a magical letter unique to your child. Each letter comes with an authentic ‘Nice List’ certificate.

“Finding Nutmeg” Book: This beautifully illustrated children’s book details the story of a little boy’s adventure to the magical North Pole. After finding a magical coin outside his grandad’s workshop, Sean embarks on a mission to return it to its rightful owner: Nutmeg the Elf. Finding Nutmeg is a timeless tale that’s sure to bring the whole family together!
