The idea that the Earth itself acts as a giant magnet was first proposed in 1600 by the English physician and natural philosopher, William Gilbert. He was also the first to define the North Magnetic Pole as the point where the Earth's magnetic field points vertically downwards. This is the definition used nowadays, though it would be several hundred years before the nature of the Earth's magnetic field was understood properly.

There are no such circles.

You're getting at the "meridians of longitude", but each of those is a semi-circle,

with its ends at the poles. It takes two meridians of longitude, exactly opposite

each other, to make a circle.

because the earth is tilted towards the poles,so in summers the north pole will have continuous daylight for 6 months and south pole will have night for 6 months.Then in winters it will be reversed i.e. north pole will have night for the other 6 months and south pole will have continuous day light for 6 months.

this proves that the poles experience day for 6 months and other 6 months they experience night.

Santa does not actually exist at the North Pole. Santa is a fictional character that is used by parents to make the Christmas holiday fun and exciting for their children and to encourage them to behave. Instead of just giving their kids presents, they tell them that there is a magical man that travels across the whole world in one night delivering presents to all the good children in the world.
