🎅 A Special Keepsake for Meeting Santa

Meeting Father Christmas can be one of the highlights of a child’s Christmas.

Instead of another disposable novelty, give them something that marks the occasion:

“I Met Santa!”

The medal can be presented by Santa himself, an elf, teacher or event organiser after the child’s visit.

It’s a simple way to add an extra memorable moment to your Christmas event.

🎄 Personalised for Your School or Organisation

Make your Christmas medals unique to your event by adding your:

• School name
• Nursery name
• Organisation name
• Club name
• Event name
• Short personal message

This makes the medal more than a generic Christmas gift — it becomes a keepsake created specifically for your Christmas celebration.

If you have a particular requirement, please contact Rainbow Rhino Laser before ordering and we’ll discuss what may be possible.

🌳 Wooden Christmas Medal

Each I Met Santa Medal is laser cut from approximately 3.5mm cherry veneer.

The natural wooden finish gives the medal a warm, traditional Christmas appearance while providing an alternative to mass-produced plastic Christmas novelties.

Natural wood and veneer can vary slightly in grain, shade and appearance. These natural variations are part of the character of wooden products and help make each piece distinctive.

📏 Medal Size

Approximate width: 60mm

The size makes the medal large enough for the Christmas design to stand out while remaining comfortable for children to wear during an event.

🎀 Available With or Without Christmas Ribbon

Choose your medals:

With Christmas ribbon – supplied ready to wear with approximately 10mm-wide festive Christmas-pattern or coloured ribbon.

Without ribbon – ideal if your school, organisation or event already has its own ribbon or you would prefer to present the medals differently.

Please note that Christmas ribbon patterns may vary depending on availability.

🏫 Ideal Christmas Medals for Schools

Schools looking for an affordable Christmas keepsake for larger numbers of children can use the medals for:

• School Santa visits
• Primary school Christmas events
• Nursery Christmas parties
• Preschool Christmas celebrations
• PTA Christmas fairs
• Breakfast with Santa
• School Christmas discos
• Christmas fundraising events
• End-of-term Christmas celebrations

Adding your school name helps make the medal a lasting reminder of that particular Christmas event.

🎅 Perfect for Santa’s Grottos

Running a Santa’s grotto is all about creating a magical experience.

After meeting Father Christmas, children can be officially presented with their own I Met Santa Medal.

Imagine Santa saying:

“You’ve met Santa, so I think you’ve earned this!”

It’s a small addition to the grotto experience that can create a wonderful photo opportunity and an extra moment for children to remember.

These medals can therefore work particularly well for:

• Santa’s grottos
• Christmas attractions
• Christmas markets
• Garden centre Santa experiences
• Community Christmas events
• Charity Santa events
• Family Christmas fun days

They can also be created for:

We’re conscious of the materials used within our products and continually look for practical ways to create products responsibly.

Wooden Christmas medals offer a distinctive alternative to many disposable plastic Christmas rewards and novelties.

Laser cutting allows us to create detailed lettering and Christmas designs with excellent consistency.

Each batch is carefully produced in our workshop, combining modern laser technology with the hands-on attention you’d expect when buying from a small handmade UK business.

🎁 A Christmas Gift Children Can Keep

The real value of an I Met Santa Medal isn’t simply the wood from which it’s made.

It’s the memory attached to it.

Years later, the medal could still be sitting inside a child’s Christmas memory box alongside photographs, handmade Christmas cards and other childhood keepsakes.

It represents:

“That was the Christmas I met Santa.”

That’s what makes personalised Christmas keepsakes different from ordinary Christmas novelties.
