Kick off the Christmas season on Cape Cod  at the Winter Wonderland at Tihonet village market in Wareham MA this weekend  Saturday December 3^rd and Sunday December 4^th from 10-3pm.   The theme will be Elf on the Shelf!

There will be free  Winter Wagon Ride through the cranberry bogs and try to find the magical elves hiding in the Elf Houses. Stop by Tihonet Village Market or the Old Company Store to hop on the Wagon. Enjoy the sounds of holiday music as you ride “over the river and through the woods” to the other location. You can then continue back to your starting point, or disembark for some special holiday shopping. Sing carols and hear the story of how Santa really knows who has been naughty or nice.

Free hot cocoa, cookies and fun gifts for all kids! The little elves have left fun projects for the kids to do at both locations while the parents do a bit of holiday shopping!
