Who Might You Meet in Jolly Days? | Part 2

Santa's not the only one you have a chance to meet during your visit to Jolly Days at The Children's Museum! There are quite a few characters—and we mean characters!—that you could run into. They may tell you a story or sing you a song...they'll probably give you a giggle or a high five...and they'll definitely get you in the holiday spirit! Here's the second half of our list of characters you might meet in Jolly Days... (and don't miss the others, too!)

Andy the Zookeeper

Andy D. Mallaferty is a zookeeper who takes care of the various animals that help out at the North Pole workshop. He’s decided to visit Jolly Days to learn ideas for winter traditions that they can implement at this year’s North Pole holiday celebration.

Though some people may think only of reindeer when they think of North Pole animals at the holidays, Andy has brought with him many others: a walrus, a weasel, an arctic hare, a polar bear, a dall sheep, a harp seal, a krill, a puffin, a snowy owl, a narwhal, and even a microscopic radiolarian!

Zazzlez the Elf

Zazzelz was born Zazzels Z. Zazzlington (the extra “Z” was added to his first name at the behest of his agent, Jack Frost). After years of working his way through the Hot Chocolate Bars and Candy-Cane Clubs of the North Pole, Zazzelz hit the big time when Santa made him the official Stand-Up Comic Elf of the North Pole.

Now, Zazzelz is on tour with Santa as he visits families at The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis. Hopefully, this comic elf can keep visitors laughing through Jolly Days, maybe hear some new jokes to add to his set, and perhaps even audition visitors to be a comedy-duo partner!

Mrs. Claus

You can find Mrs. Claus sitting with a bag of reindeer food and a variety of crafts, which you can work on together to take home as a holiday treasure. You may receive a special Hot Cocoa or Reindeer Food recipe! Mrs. Claus is keeping an eye on things while visitors talk with Santa in Jolly Days. If you don't have time to visit Santa, she'll pass along your wishes for you. 
 
 
Be sure to tell Mrs. Claus about your plans for the holidays!
