My husband announced when we preparing for our first child that he would not lie and tell her there was a santa. The next year he stayed up till 3 in the morning to put together everything SANTA brought. It is an excitement that I hope my littlest one will enjoy for years to come.
When the boys in the 1st grade tried to ruin the fun for my son we set up a video camera and pointed it at the tree. When we watched it the next day, one minute tree, the next the back of santa and all the presents andwith a snap of his finger her was gone. That bought me many years.
I will confess, I try to word it in a way they will never wander if Santa isn't real, then maybe baby Jesus wasn't either. That was my only fear, was how to make sure they realized that.
