Sometimes the sights and sounds – and the crowds – of the holiday season are just too much.

That’s why the tea at Katy Mills Mall is bringing Caring Santa® to the mall for a special visit, designed especially for children with special needs.

The sensory-friendly experience – which includes photos --is set for Sunday, December 6, from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m., at a time when the mall is quiet and uncrowded, and the usual holiday music is turned off.

Santa will be located in Neighborhood 8 near American Eagle at the mall at 5000 Katy Mills Circle in Katy. Photos will be taken and available for purchase at this event.
