With the arrival of the holiday season, the Holiday Wish Express is back at the Stamford Town Center.
"It's perfect for younger kids and those that believe in the magic of Christmas. There is magic here and each nook and cranny has something really special," says PJ Kennedy.
The interactive light-filled train ride takes kids and families on a journey to a land of lights and Christmas characters.
"With the conductor, the way he looks and is dressed the whole interior of the train, the rumbling of the fur to make it feel like your moving and the animation i think its going to be awesome i think the kids are going to love it," says Kennedy.
As part of the experience, kids can meet Mrs. Claus, mail a letter to Santa and purchase Christmas gifts.
There's also a nutcracker display and dancing animals.
Kids can also participate in a scavenger hunt to find a teddy bear.
"Throughout the experience, there's teddy, just a little teddy bear, that just going to be situated up in each of the rooms and the attendees are encouraged to look out for teddy take photos with him and then at the end they will be able to pick up their own teddy," says Kennedy.
The express starts Nov. 18 and runs through Christmas Eve.
