[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our house you do not get presents on Christmas if you don't believe in Santa (older kids here). When kids got old enough and were struggling with the notion I told them yes, Santa is real...it is just not who you may think it is. Then explained 'Santa' is a allegorical identity for those how want to share gifts, joy and a little bit of magic to everyone around Christmas.  I also told them to think about this for a minute: consider for a moment that for hundreds of years (okay, maybe decades) that people all over the world work together to bring a real sort of magic into the world of children. They are nicer to each other. They reach out and send cards and messages to people they haven't seen in a long time. They buy gifts and give donations to strangers in need. This is what Santa is and this is why he is real and needs to stay real.

From the day DC stopped believing we create a RAK calendar and they is how they now participate. So in our house Santa is real and DC now have to give back and share in Christmas in a different way.

Too me, the fact that so many people keep this time magic and special for all children is no less magical than the story of Santa Claus. [/quote]
