Lights, trees, presents, lots of delicious food and of course Santa - Christmas is well and truly upon us.
And with the countdown on, that means festive activities are now at the forefront of a lot of parents' minds, with taking their little ones to meet Father Chrirstmas being top of the list for most.
Luckily, there are plenty of places where Santa is available to meet children in Northamptonshire.
Below are 14 Santa’s Grottos in Northamptonshire where your children can experience the magic of Christmas.
