Since the time is upon us do your kids still believe in Santa?

Mine tell me they do....our two oldest 11 & 12 I think know but won't say it in fear that it's actually true.

Our youngest 8 & 9....TOTALLY BELIEVE....

Lori:

My twins are only seven, and they still believe -- although there are hearing from a lot of kids at school that Santa is mom and dad. But my daughter says she doesn't believe it. They believe in the tooth fairy to, and they are losing teeth now at the rate of about one every other week. The tooth fairy is going broke! LOL.

Our kids 8, 7 and 5 still believe and I think it's a beautiful thing!

We follow the tradition of baking cookies and leaving carrots for the reindeer at our house. Sometimes, Santa even leaves a few snowy footprints behind and the kids get so excited!!

I know the day will come when they will figure out we did it, and they will probably end up doing it for their kids too.

Sometimes, I'm still not sure what I believe. ;)

My son who is 8 still believes as far as I know. He will go away with his dad this Xmas. So we have to "email Santa" to tell him to come to Mom's house early, before he goes. (He gets Santa twice!!)

Of course they do! What are you talking about? What are you trying to say?????

You have to believe in Santa. He only comes if you believe! And I've met him, at the mall. Okay, well it was one of his helpers, but he's really busy. give the guy a break!

LOL Tara! I've met the REAL Santa Claus. He lives at the North Pole. North Pole, Alaska that is...about 90 miles south of the Arctic Circle. I visited him there, sat on his lap. He was REAL, I tell you.

In North Pole, Alaska, all the the street lights are painted like candy canes and it truly is Christmas time all year round. It's wonderful :)

That sounds like a lovely place!


Ty's never believed. We play Santa, but I grew up just playing but knowing better. And that works fine for all of us.
