Tooth fairy,easter bunny,santa clause,etc?

When did you tell your kids the truth?

Tooth fairy,easter bunny,santa clause,etc?
I believe my mother said it best. "When you stop believing in Santa, he stops visiting you!" I like that one. If youre child wants these happy holiday figures to leave little delights, they must always believe in them. Or at least pretend to. (Wink)


That is what my children will be told too. Kept me happy! And the gifts a' comin!
Reply:I hope your child is able to hold on to these special holidays better with this answer.


Thanks for the vote! Report It

Reply:I never did, they learnt from their school mates.. One by one, I was quizzed over those years.. I simply said, well I didn't do it, so who did???.. They were a wake up to me, but I never wanted to spoil the magick...I also was subject to bribes from the older kids... Love and Light.. )O(
Reply:I didn't. I let them tell me and then we talked about the symbolic nature of these character and the principles they bring to our lives.
Reply:he is old enough to know i knew way before that and if you lie and he believes you he will get made fun of in school
Reply:my kids dont even know who they are yet, but my mom never told me i found out on my own, i was about 7 years old and i and got up at about 12am the time my mom told me he would come to bring the presents, well i stayed up until 1am and he never showed that is how i found out there wasnt a santa.
Reply:Well, I got told when i was 6 and i was like. psh. oh well, your child probally doesnt care as much about the people themselves. as she would care about the candy and gifts =]


SO, if you dont want to spoil the fun, then every time she asks, point out side too a yellow duck and tell her too watch as it turns green. It should keep her busy for HOURS =P (you dont have to use a yellow duck, my mom used a purple penguin, it wasnt untill 4th grade that i learend there were no penguins in the south) =P


Anyhow, stop worrying about it and you might wanna consider that kids in school will also tell her so.. you don't.. Its why we send our kids too school. Learn stuff about life =P
Reply:My dad told my older borther that if he spoiled the fun for us (told us the truth) Santa wouldn't give him any gifts. I truly believed until past fifth grade. It's fun and harmless. Honestly, how long do kids lose their teeth for? They can believe right up until the last on about fairy who comes and takes them for money. ^^
Reply:Tell your kid its a secret.
