Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson kicked off the holiday season early by surprising some fortunate kids, channeling his inner Willy Wonka.

Sharing the moment on Instagram, The Rock explained they surprised families at Walmart, gifting toys and five golden tickets that allowed winners to take as much as their carts could carry.
As a father, The Rock expressed how meaningful this was, emphasizing that nothing beats seeing kids happy and smiling. He continued sharing footage from the day, including lighthearted moments with his own children and encouraging the kids to go wild in the electronics aisle. He joked about suddenly finding himself babysitting and highlighted how much these moments mean, especially for families enduring tough times.
Acknowledging his own struggles, The Rock said that creating experiences like this is the most rewarding aspect of fame. His generosity transformed Walmart into a magical holiday wonderland, offering joy and relief to families in need. Whether giving away hundreds of dollars or carts full of gifts, “Dwanta Claus” clearly knows how to spread festive cheer.
