I'd say- let him come to you with questions. These questions may just pop up right after Christmas!

Yeah...probably the best way to go.
He still comes and now my little girl is old enough to understand bout the big guy he is going to be even more jolly :elf3:
Santa still comes to my house :waving:
Stopped believing at around 8, but we still got presents, we just knew they came from mum and dad.
Are there really people out there that stop buying their kids presents once they don't believe in Santa?
No - of course not. Just like you - presents come from Mom and DadQuote:

Not yet moved out so at 20 Santa still visits, I think he will only stop coming for me when I have children because when I move out I'll probably still get gifts left under the tree at my parents house
Santa came for me at my parent's house until I married at 23. My little sister is 13 years younger than me, so it was all part the Santa tradition to keep her believing!Quote:

he never stops
It was about 6 for me. My dad wrapped Santa's presents in the same wrapping paper as his, so I figured they were one and the same. Didn't spoil Christmas though. It was still a magical time.
Oh yes. I was always on my toes about this with my kids. Every year I would buy special Santa wrapping paper and tags!Quote:

My Mom, too! And she wrote in different handwriting on the tags. Kids are very observant. :presents2:Quote:

Oh yes - I always printed his gift tags in block letters!Quote:

I remember when a kid several years older than me told me there was no Santa. I was very disappointed, but got over it eventually. I kinda suspected something was off when one time I snuck up on my dad and he was the one leaving the presents under the Christmas tree. :D
He still does... :santa2:
