[quote=Anonymous]OP here. It’s been interesting reading all the different perspectives on this. I don’t think we ruined anything for DD, who is still super excited about Christmas and will still get a stocking and presents from Santa. She loves pretending, so I think she’ll get into it. We didn’t teach her about Santa to begin with, she picked it up elsewhere, and it hasn’t been a big part of our Christmases. So it’s a disappointment, but not a big loss. I think maybe it’s something she hoped was real, the way she wishes unicorns were real. This evening we were listening to a story that had a part about Santa’s elves getting gifts ready for Christmas, and she asked me, very seriously, where the parents get all the presents for Christmas. So I answered her, very seriously, that all parents are magic (which is true). She giggled and giggled. She’s totally fine. [/quote]
