Personally, i think that you tell them that Santa is real then when you think they are old enough like 7 or something then tell them that we say he isn't real to keep him away . They aren't likely to scream about it that he isn't real. Or you could joke about it like saying yeah he is real and how do you think he goes to every house in one night. You could just say he is not real to begin with it is sort of a joke

I hope i helped you with this

yes. i think it is harm to lie to children. espeshally littele ones. santa makes them dummer and dummer. think about this. a kid has so many toys. he will play with those and not do his home work. he will have bad grades cause santa spoils him. and also santa is your dad. every one knows that

this is tricky, if u tell your kid too soon theyll mourn but if you tell them too late theyll be mad at you. i would say somwhere in between 5 and 7 no later than 8.

What to talk to kids about as Santa?

What you decide to talk to kids about as Santa can vary depending on what you want your children to believe. While there is no harm in allowing them to believe in Santa Claus, you can also tell them the story of Saint Nicholas and how he was a real man and would make toys for the poor and that is where Santa come from.

Why do people tell kids that santa is real?

Santa is real. To kids, who have great imaginations, it helps them to countdown the days before Christmas - which is when Santa brings presents. Santa is fun and he loves kids. Kids can tell Santa what they want for Christmas (how else would their parents know what to buy?) and they can take pictures with Santa. Try explaining to a four-year-old child that they have to go to bed so that their parents can put presents under the tree for the next morning. They wouldn't go to bed! Santa is a fun way to show kids when they get presents and to get them to be good and go to bed on time. You don't really need to know that Santa isn't "real" unless you are a parent who has to buy presents and then you become one of many Santa's out there. Who says Santa isn't real?!
