This holiday season, The Florida Mall will dazzle area families and visitors with an all-new Santa set and cheerful, illuminated holiday décor featured throughout the mall. Inspired by a nostalgic stroll through snowfall on a winter night, the theme for Santa’s new home at The Florida Mall is “Wonderful Holiday Swirl”.

The holidays are a busy time, so sometimes we need a reminder to slow down and see the magic of the season. We might not get snow, but the new holiday decor at the Florida Mall brings the glisten of winter to us. Glittery ornaments big enough to stand inside make the perfect photo opportunity to catch that sparkle in your little ones’ eyes as they take in the Christmas enchantment around them. Festive lights and trees deck the inside, and Santa himself can be found seated within a shimmering winter scene. What a thoughtful way for the Florida Mall to help Orlando families spend time together appreciating the season!

Contributor Anne Marie shares, “As you walked through the newly remodeled mall we were struck by how inviting it was! Plenty of seating for the weary shopper to rest their feet while charging their phone. Our absolute favorite area had to be the Play Park though! It was different than any mall play area we had ever seen before with things to climb on, crawl through, and interact with there was never a dull moment. The Play Park is in such an ideal location being right next to Crayola Experience where we were able to explore more colors than we thought possible.

When we got home we refueled on a delicious assortment of cupcakes from Carlos’ Bakery. This is a stop we have been wanting to try since they opened. Buddy and the gang did not disappoint! 

Stepping into the M&M World flooded me with memories of vacations to Hershey, PA and Hershey’s Chocolate World from the smell of chocolate.

Our last must-see… What little girl doesn’t love American Girl? Now that I know there is an American Girl Bistro so close, I might see if my daughter wants to take her Gabriela doll for tea to celebrate her birthday and maybe get her doll’s ears pierced!”
