Do your children believe in Santa? How old are they?


Both ds (10 and 12) don't believe in Santa anymore. They do still write him a letter each year.

Well mine are 16 & 18 so they obviously don't believe, but we all still "pretend". I'll say things like "You'll have to ask Santa for that" and they'll just roll their eyes It just makes it more fun!!

DD is 7 years old (2nd grade) and this is probably her last year.

For years, hubby has been Santa who shows up at our house on Christmas Eve. He has also played Santa at parties, etc. After he is done at our house he'll visit some of the neighbors who we know have little kids. Well, last year we decided he'd surprise one of DD's best friends. That kid figured out that it was hubby and she told DD. Well, DD insisted that wasn't true but, of course, now she suspects. Needless to say, her friend isn't going to be getting a visit this year.

My oldest will be 8 later this month still believes, but it is only a matter of time because two of her friends do not. Their parents told them not to talk about it around my dd so I thought that was nice of them. My youngest is 5 and she still believes as well.

My boys are 2,7 and 8 and I think this will be the last year my two oldest believe in Santa. They have been asking a lot of questions and I think they are getting suspicious. Plus, there are a lot of kids in my oldest sons class who know Santa is not real.

My 2 year old saw Santa at Kmart yesterday and he just stared at him with the most disgusted look on his face!

Yep, dd's are 6, 2 1/2, and 9 months. My oldest 2 love him and will hug him when they see him.

Also, this being Arkansas and all, there is a man in town who has white hair, a white beard, and a big ole belly. He looks just like Santa. You see him at Wal-mart or a resturant or somewhere, and kids are staring at him, talking to him, you name it. He has a great attitude about it all. My 6 year old is convienced that Santa doesn't live in the north pole, but that he lives in our town!
