Former President Barack Obama surprised a group of young children at a Boys and Girls Club in Washington D.C.

Wearing a Santa hat, Obama stopped by the Jelleff Club, a branch of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Washington, on Thursday, to spread the holiday cheer to the kids.

The former president was seen with a bag of gifts as he met with about 50 middle school students along with staff members for about a half an hour, according to the Washington Post.

He also participated in after-school activities with the students and staff.

Sharing a photo from the visit, Obama wrote: “There’s no better time than the holiday season to reach out and give back to our communities,”
