 Families in the Bemidji area were given the chance to make a personalized gift to go under the tree, thanks to the annual Santa's Workshop event. Santa's Workshop always falls one week before Christmas and is hosted by the Bemidji Parks and Recreation Department. Families come in, pick a craft to do together. They're also welcome to enjoy some hot chocolate and popcorn. And once they're done with the project, it's wrapped and ready to be given to a loved one. Look at such a cool thing for kids to get to come and pick up something and kind of have someone in their family and mind to be making it for. I've heard a lot of kids say, I'm making this for my dad or I'm going to make this for my mom. So that's kind of cool to give kids an opportunity to be really creative with something for Christmas and lots of fun.
