The excitement was wavering in the air while everyone, well … more so the adults were patiently waiting on the event to commence. With toddlers running around amidst the buzz and mommies and daddies running after them, the excitement was definitely starting to set in. MC Sunil Osman welcomed everyone, and would later also guide everyone together with Christmas legends, like The Grinch, to every station.
