Christmas cheer will hit the Bay of Plenty tomorrow, with the Tauranga city centre, Te Puke and Katikati Christmas parades all rolling through.
Little Learners Education and Care co-owner Jason Rowntree said it was the first year the centre had entered the Tauranga parade.
"Many of the children have seen
the parade and we thought we'd like the kids to have a really cool experience," he said.
Mr Rowntree designed their float, named Little Learners Little Gem, which would be a decorated van with Rudolph the reindeer on top.
The children, aged two to five, would walk behind with staff and parents.
