They said: "We have lots of exciting and fun stuff planned for our Christmas special 

"We will have lights, messy play, different sounds, and textures around the room that are all Christmas-themed like usual but more.

"We have the fantastic Nic Redshaw back from Red N Dead Photography joining us, she will be taking pictures of your little ones in the Christmas-themed photo booth.

"Also, Santa is coming to Tiny Tootsies. Santa will be coming to visit all the boys and girls. We will have photo opportunities for you to take pictures of Santa with your little ones."
