On saturday, in honour of Santa's arrival, there was a parade through the mall however, the mall was very crowded by the time we got there with the children.
Good effort, Carmen, but you missed some of the first sentence.
Perhaps you could say something like:
We went to the mall on Saturday so that the children could see Santa during the parade that went through the mall in honour of his arrival; however, by the time we got there, it was very crowded.
