Music / DJ

We highly recommend Mark Welch Entertainment, the best FULL-SERVICE DJ Entertainment Company in the San Francisco Bay Area, to provide festive music for your celebration. Their Disc Jockeys and Emcees each have more than twenty years of experience. This guarantees, in any situation, Mark Welch Entertainment Disc Jockeys to be professional, and your event a great success. One of the best ways to spread Christmas cheer is to sing Christmas carols LOUD for ALL to hear. To find music and lyrics, visit kididdles - A wonderful site with 100's downloadable Christmas tunes for group sing-alongs. 2007 we introduced the Liberty High School Choral singers on our website. This talented group of students is involved in spreading Christmas CHEER by singing Christmas Carols at various Holiday celebrations. Please support the Liberty Choir Club to have the joys of the Holiday Season brought to your doorstep.  So deck your halls and mark your calendars!  If you’re interested in spreading the Holiday spirit through their joyous songs during your celebration, contact Laura Carreon, LHS Choral Director at (925) 634-3521 ext. 5877, or email Mrs. Carreon at LHSchoirclub at yahoo.com to arrange a date.  But, you must hurry, because they’re always in great demand.  Be sure to tell Mrs. Carreon Santa Albert sent you!


If your not from Brentwood then check with your local High School's music department. Most High Schools have a similar program.
Would you prefer more LIVELY music for your special occasion? Whether you need a soloist or a ten-piece band with singers, we highly recommend Mark Richard.  He is not only the consummate musician and accomplished vocalist, but also a GREAT entertainer.

  Fun D.I.Y. Activities & Games

Reindeer Treats For Christmas Eve - A great party activity for kids. Each child assembles a snack of food for Santa’s reindeer on Christmas eve.  Purchase several different edible eats: birdseed, oatmeal, rice, or any cereals from the bulk food section of your favorite store, 3-4 will do fine.  Prepare a "salad bar" style table. Perhaps, make a festive sign...Reindeer Grazing Grub. Assemble each item in a separate bowl or container along with a teaspoon, label each bowl according to content.  Instruct each child to choose a flavor(s) they think Santa's team will enjoy.  Children place 3-4 teaspoons of each in a resealable sack, small decorated paper bag, or our muslin feed sack (image right). Kids can also pre decorate their containers! Keep in mind, each bag should have a maximum of 10-12 teaspoonfuls. When Santa is just about to leave your visit he will wave his magical powers onto their snacks, so they will be able to see the treats. On Christmas eve, just before the kids go to bed, they sprinkle the contents of their container on the front lawn for the reindeer to eat while Santa is busy inside leaving gifts

My Wish List For Santa - Another GREAT activity for children as they wait to see Santa. Download this free Wish List and make copies for the kids to complete their wish list while waiting to visit with Santa at your party. When making your reservation, please ask for the download and we will happily email you a printable version.


 

Reindeer Noses - Make a great take-home gift for your Christmas-themed party. Before your party, assemble a bag of "Reindeer Noses" for your guests to take home. Using malted milk balls and red bubblegum, place seven brown milk balls and one red bubblegum ball in small cellophane or plastic bag.  Cleverly decorate a bag topper and staple to seal the bag of noses.

 The Elf on the Shelf has become a Holiday Tradition.  How does Mr. Claus know who’s been naughty or who’s been nice?  Since Mrs. Claus and the elves combined their voices to convince him, Santa has allowed his biggest secret to being revealed in the book, The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition®.  Saint Nick has partnered each book with a magical scout elf, which the child(ren) name(s).  They can then visit the North Pole to register their elf’s name in the official Hall of Registry and print their official elf adoption certificate. All Santa approved, of course!

Mom or Dad can read various, interesting Christmas stories from one of the most informative sites on the net.
