Lights off for the 2025 season. Thank you for an amazing year!

LIGHTS. MAGIC. SICKKIDS.

Pickering's magical light extravaganza

Hand-made, Disney-inspired, and glowing with 20,000+ lights — free to visit, supporting SickKids. Nestled in South Pickering’s Bay Ridges — only 30 minutes east of Toronto and steps from the Pickering GO — our lights are closer than you think.

We love the magic of Christmas.

Every wooden cut-out you see is handcrafted by our family. Mom is the artist and electrical wizard, Dad is the woodworker and builder, and our two kids help bring every scene to life. This is our thing — our holiday tradition. We create it with love, laughter, and a lot of tangled lights. We hope it brings you joy, wonder, and a little extra magic this season.

Thank you for visiting — you’re part of the magic now.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Do you make or buy the wooden cut outs?

It's a family effort. All of our wooden cut outs are handcrafted by all of us. Mom is the artist and electrical wizard, Dad is the wood worker and builder and our kids help bring our display to life at night as they entertain our visitors on some nights as they dress up as inflatable gingerbread. (see last FAQ for more info on this!)

What does your electricity cost?

They are all LED lights so just a little bit more than blasting our air conditioning in July.

How long does it take to put up?

Hundreds of hours!!! We start in October and grateful for two kids, two awesome nieces and some brave friends who come help us.

Do you have a special electrical box?

Not really. We have a regular 200AMP box for lights and our whole house.

How many extension cords do you have?

Around 400 extension cords and six timers.

Where do you store it all?

We have a very large shed with a second ‘floor’.  The wood cut outs don’t take up too much space either!

How many lights do you have?

We stopped counting at 20,000!

Will the inflatables characters be out when we visit?

Our inflatable friends (like the gingerbread crew!) make appearances on many nights — especially weekends — but we don’t have a set schedule. They’re powered by some very real kids who juggle soccer, swimming, violin, homework, and the occasional dislike of freezing temperatures ❄️.

We do our best to have them out as often as possible, especially when the weather cooperates and the holiday spirit’s high!
