This is a fully immersive experience where you'll get to handle and interact with our pair of reindeer. This Christmas team spends most days bringing the magic of Christmas to people at Holiday Festivals but their quiet down time at the farm and personal attention is what they love best!
We'll begin with a short introduction to reindeer, unique behaviors and how farm owner Sophia came to have them in her back yard. Then you'll have an opportunity to handle and interact with the reindeer yourself.
This is a fully outdoor experience - after all - reindeer prefer the cold of the arctic! But we'll warm you up with some spiced cider and chocolate chip cookies!
Size is limited to 6 visitors per session for a small, hands on, intimate experience. If you have a larger group, send us an email info@rainierreindeer.com for special accommodations.
Important information you should know:
Because our experience is educational and hands on, it is appropriate for children 12+. Younger children are welcome but please come with realistic expectations. They may be frightened by the reindeer or might have to be held.
For our younger reindeer enthusiasts, we recommend Watson’s Nursery in Puyallup as a great, free alternative for the smaller children.
