Christmas Title
“Mum! Dad! Where are we going to see Santa this Christmas?”   “Mam! Dad! Ble gallwn fynd i weld Siôn Corn y Nadolig Hwn?”  
       
       
Now, where can you take us kids to capture that special ‘magical’ Christmas experience that we will remember for the rest of the year?   I ba le gallwch fynd â ni’r plant am brofiad cyfareddol yn ystod y Nadolig a hynny byddwn yn cofio amdano am weddill y flwyddyn?

You could take us to a high street store, where down in a grotty basement a curtained off section houses a bored looking Santa. Yuk!! Or perhaps to a garden centre, with Santa sitting amongst the potted plants! Now, come on dad that’s not very magical or exciting for us kids is it???

But mum, there is now somewhere super cool you could take us!

Just 20 minutes from the M4, (junction 45), my teacher says there is a Welsh mountain, with ancient caves, whose entrances are guarded by gigantic, but very friendly dinosaurs! I love dinosaurs… But deep inside this mountain lies Wales’ only natural Christmas grotto… Fantastic!
  Gallwch fynd â ni i un o siopau ein strydoedd mawr, ac yno mae rhan o’r ystafell y llawr isaf wedi troi mewn i gell fach lle mae Siôn Corn yn edrych yn ddiflas iawn wrth eistedd yno a muriau llenni o’i amgylch. Ych!! Neu gallwn fynd i ganolfan Garddio lle bydd Siôn Corn yn eistedd ymhlith y planhigion llestr! Dewch flaen dad! Nid yw hyn yn gyfareddol na chyffrous i ni’r plant, nac ydyw???

O mam! Nid oes unman anhygoel gallwch fynd â ni iddo!

Dim ond ugain munud i ffwrdd o’r M4, (cyffordd 45), mae Mynydd Cymreig sydd gyda ogof hynafol, dyna beth ddywedodd ein hathrawes! Ac mae’r mynediad i’r ogof yn cael ei gwarchod gan dinosorus cyfeillgar! Rwy’n hoffi dinasorus... Ymhell mewn i’r mynydd mae groto naturiol gyda Siôn Corn, a dyma’r unig un yng Nghymru... Rhyfeddol!

Imagine our excitement as we set off to find Santa, and follow the twisting, turning cave passageways that eventually lead us down into Santa’s magical underground world.   Dychmygwch ein cynnwrf wrth fynd i edrych am groto Siôn Corn, byddwn yn dilyn ogof droellog sydd yn tramwyo mewn i’r mynydd, ac yn y diwedd arwain ni hyd at fyd tan-ddaearol Siôn Corn.

Mum, the sights and sounds we will experience on our journey are not of this world! Underground lakes, waterfalls, vast colourful hanging cave formations have all been transformed by the truly stunning Christmas decorations put up by the ‘Cave Bears’. As dad is always saying “seeing is believing”!   Mam, bydd y golygfeydd, a hefyd y s?n byddwn yn profi ar ein taith fel rhiwbeth allan o’r byd hwn? Llynnoedd tanddaearol, rhaeadrau, ffurfiau lliwgar yn hongian o’r nenfwd yn yr ogof, byddant wedi eu trawsnewid gan addurniadau’r Nadolig ac wedi eu gosod yno gan eirth yr ogof. Fel ddywedodd dad “Gweld yw Credu”!

I’m told I’ll find Santa with his ever-faithful Elf nearby. I will even get a chance to speak to Santa, and you can take my picture with him dad!  I must tell him what presents I hope to get this Christmas, and of course, Santa is bound to give me a great present to take home. I hope he doesn’t ask me if I’ve been good this year - that could be a tricky one!   Dywedant byddwn yn darganfod Siôn Corn yng nghwmni ei eirth, a’i goblin ffyddlon. Cawn cyfle i siarad gyda Siôn Corn a dweud wrtho pa anrhegion hoffwn gael am y Nadolig. Wrth gwrs, bydd Siôn Corn yn rhoi anrheg arbennig i fi gael mynd adref, ond rwy’n gobeithio na bydd yn gofyn os ydwyf wedi bod yn blentyn da eleni, gall hynny fod yn lletchwith!

And mum, my day’s fun will just go on and on.  The next amazing thing we can see is Cathedral Cave - its HUGE!  Then we visit Bone Cave!   Mam, bydd fy nifyrrwch yn mynd ymlaen, ac ymlaen a’r peth rhyfeddol nesaf yw, byddwn yn gallu gweld ogof Yr Eglwys-Careiriol! Ac mae hwnw yn ogof anferth! Wedi  hynny gallwn ymweld ag Ogof-yr-Esgyrn!

Dad, there is even an Iron Age Farm to see and a great Museum.  And dad, you know I love dinosaurs, well my teacher says Dan-yr-Ogof has one of the largest collections of life-sized dinosaur models in the world.  That’s really cool!   Dad, mae fferm Oes yr Haearn yw gweld yno a hefyd Amgueddfa wych. Dad, chi’n gwybod rhwy'n hoffi dinasorus, mae fy athrawes yn dweud bod gan Dan-yr-Ogof y casgliad mwyaf o dinosorus o’i mant naturiol yn y byd. Anhygoel!

There will even be a tractor waiting to take us down to the Morgan Brothers’ farm for us to see all their farm animals, and of course their magnificent Shire Horses!   Bydd tractor yn aros i fynd â ni lawr at fferm Y Brodyr Morgans i gael edrych ar eu hanifeiliaid fferm, ac wrth gwrs eu Ceffylau Gwedd neilltuol!

Finally mum, if I have any energy left there’s an undercover play area called ‘Barney Owls Playground’ to end my perfect day.   Ac yn olaf mam, os bydd gennyf egni ar ôl, mae safle chwarae allan o’r tywydd ‘Tylluan Barney’ (Barney Owl) yw ei enw a gallaf chwarae yno i diweddi fy niwrnod perffaith.

Now that’s what I call a real “Dan Yr Ogof” Christmas experience! Can we get there early? There is so much to see and do, and I don’t want us to miss anything!

Come on mum! Hurry up dad! I can’t wait to go…!
  Dyna peth rwy'n galw profiad anhygoel am y Nadolig yn “Dan-yr-Ogof”! Gallwn gyrraedd yno yn gynnar mam a dad.? Mae llawer yw gweld yno, ac nid ydwyf eisau i ni colli dim!

Dewch ymlaen mam! Brysiwch dad! Rwy'n methu aros am fynd...!
