Breakfast With Santa Claus and the Dinosaurs

It sounds like some new rock group, but actually breakfast with Santa is simply an annual event at Dinosaur Journey in Fruita.

Kids love dinosaurs and kids love Santa Claus, so when you put the two together you have a winning combination.

This annual event is on Saturday, December 5th from 9AM-11AM. The kids enjoy a hot breakfast from McDonalds and a tour through the gallery of dinosaurs.

Then they'll be treated to a performance by the Adagio Dancers and story time with Mrs. Claus. Finally, the man himself, Jolly Old Saint Nick, will join the fun.

This is an extremely popular event, and the museum has actually expanded capacity to 150, but  that's it. Tickets are limited. You can reserve a spot by calling Carla Hatch at 970-242-0971, and pre-registration is required. The cost is $8 per person.

Dinosaur Journey is part of the Museums of Western Colorado.
