Question Hamleys at Christmas

Anyone know if Hamleys in London has it's Christmas displays up yet. Our eldest son(6) wants to go there as a reward for getting 10X100% in his English, maths and science tests.

No idea about Hamleys sorry...... but well done to your son
Bet he's dead proud of himself

I would guess Hamleys would be all ready for christmas by now to make the most of every day before christmas.

Hope you have a great time we went to our local garden center displays last night feel all christmassy now!

Super cool daddio! I'm sure my kids smarter than yours though!
According to their website :
http://www.hamleys.com/web/experience/events.php
Ol Santa bloke arrives on the 27th Nov..would it be worth putting off trip till then? (looks like Spiderman, Batman and the Hulk will be there too...so a very traditional event!)

Santa ain't worth visiting at Hamleys. Very poor setup and you will be disappointed.

Pop over to Santa at Harrods. Be warned that it's a long queue!!

Not really, we told him that SC was a game people played at christmas. So he knows SC is'nt real, but a pretend game people play.

Thing is, we always try and be as honest with our kids as possible. Re: SC If they learn their parents can lie about SC, then goodness knows what else they'll lie about.
Secondly if they catch us lying then we are in no position to tell them off when they do.

Just my 2p
