Santa Claus tells a little girl that he will bring her gifts.
Santa Claus will spend some time at the beach this weekend before he heads back to the North Pole to get ready for Christmas.
He will be paying a visit to Sea Isle City on Friday and Saturday as part of the beach town's Holiday Extravaganza, an event highlighted by a parade and tree-lighting ceremony.
Dancers kick up their heels to entertain the crowds.
The parade is scheduled to begin 6 p.m. Friday and will make its way down John F. Kennedy Boulevard to Excursion Park on Pleasure Avenue. Mayor Leonard Desiderio will be joined by Santa at 7 p.m. for the tree lighting.
The Holiday Extravaganza will also feature free ice skating in Excursion Park from 4-9 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. There will also be live entertainment, caroling and refreshments.
If the boys and girls miss Santa on Friday night, they will be able to see him on Saturday from 1-3 p.m.

The Holiday Extravaganza is sponsored by the Sea Isle City Chamber of Commerce and Revitalization in cooperation with the city.
“They get a pretty good crowd there. It’s a great event,” city spokeswoman Katherine Custer said.
