Brookfield says to ensure safe fun, Santa might show up behind a giant picture frame, riding his sleigh, or in a giant snow globe. He’ll also be wearing a mask in states that require it.
For those families who don’t want to go to the mall, Brookfield is offering virtual visits with Santa starting Nov. 1.
Mall operator Preit is also offering zoom visits with Santa and in its malls, Santa will sit behind a plexiglass barrier.
