    My late husband and I took our girls there back in the early 80's. Lots of precious memories!!!

    This brought great nostalgic memories for me. Fifty years ago my husband and I brought our three year old son, Smokey, to Santa Land. He was terrified of Santa, would not sit on Santa's lap for a picture but stood beside Santa instead. I treasure that picture till this day. Thanks for taking me back there.

    I liked the jazzy Christmas music "Jolly Old St. Nicholas". It reminded me of the music on Mr. Rogers' Neighbourhood as a child

    We loved taking our grandson to Santa's Land when he was younger. That was his introduction to amusement parks. He loved having me ride the roller coaster with him. So nice seeing the park look so nice! Looks like the 3 of you had a lot of fun there.

    I’m so glad they have been able to maintain that little park!
    The last time we were past there several years ago, it looked pretty run down😢
    I love these types of nostalgic places. They really take me back🥰

    Come to Southern Indiana and check out Holiday World. I believe it actually started as a Santa Land and grew up! It has rides, shows, water park anis only an hour northwest of Louisville, KY

    Liked seeing Santa land, it reminds me of similar places I went to when I was growing up. It takes me back to a time when the only thing you had to worry about was if you were “there yet “

    Santa Land was real nice. There was quite a few different things for people to ride on or to look at. The paddle boats were real nice, too. And the train was too. So was the roller coaster. 🎢 🎡 I really enjoyed that you could take pictures on them not like most amusement parks are. Great video. 😉🙂👍🏻🚤

    Thanks for going in, I have been by there lately, but have not had a chance to go in. I think 1966 might be the year it was established, though I don't know for sure. I was there when I was a little girl and that timing would be about right. I loved this place as a little girl! It was magical! Y'all have so much fun!😊🎄👍

    I just commented about Santa's Land on one of your other videos. I loved going there when I was little. Did they get rid of the fish where the paddle boats are? The last time we were there, there was so many, it looked like they were on top of each other!! The Rudy Coaster was the first roller coaster I was ever brave enough to get on. I've never been a fan of them. I remember we'd stop at the gift shop on the way out and my sister and I would always be excited to get one of their rings. Even though they were fake, you'd of thought we were getting a priceless diamond ring!! Sorry for rambling, I just have a lot of fond memories from Santa's Land. Sometimes, I wish I was little again!! We didn't realize how good we had it, when things were so simple!! Another wonderful video!!🥰🎅🤶🎄

    I'm with Dawn on the big creepy bunny. I have pics of me crying terrified as a child next to a 6 ft bunny. I just came to realize as I got older I, as a child, recognized bunnies should not be that big, that's why they scared me. I was a smart kid...lol Plus the bunny costumes in the early 70's were just creepy.
