I have received gifts from Santa way back when I was still a kid. Every day in December just like other kids, I have a Christmas sock on my door. I never realized that it was my parents who put toys and candies. Not until Santa didn't sent me toys anymore. haha.
Few years back, I also have experienced being a Santa to my younger sister. It was just 2-3 years that I stopped, since she's big now and I think she has a hint already that it's just us who put toys on her stocking. But, it was fun seeing her enjoy the toys and being a very good kid. I still remember her putting milk and cookies on our dining table for Santa. My dad ate the cookies and drank the milk and left a small thank you note for her. haha. Those were the days!
How about you? Tell me your story.

Well for the last Christmas celebrations, I have been Santa to my son. Me and my wife have always instilled in our child's mind that Santa is the watching over children who are naughty and nice. But I guess, this Christmas season, he being 9 years old already, we find it the right time that me and my wife is the Santa who provided him gifts during the Christmas season.

When I was a kid of course I really felt that there were so many Santas who are willing to give me gifts and excited about it. But now it is different because I feel that I am the one who is Santa now and excited to give gifts for my godchildren.

I have received gifts from Santa, and I believed it was that special man with white beard who did that.My parents used to leave our doors open before I went to bed so he could find the way to my room.Now I'm being Santa myself from time to time.For kids and for adults.I believe all people deserve gits, there should be more Santas out there.

I never had this experience when I was a kid, as far as I can remember. So, my husband and I agreed to let our kids experience the fantasy of Santa Claus.
We have Christmas stockings on the stairways and we placed goodies early in the morning so she'd check on it when she wakes up. If she did something bad the other day, we would not place anything, and tell her that she should be a good girl to get gifts from Santa.
On Christmas eve, my husband dressed as Santa, and our daughter got scared of him, at first. Then she noticed that Santa wasn't wearing any shoes and that his feet was like that of her Dada's...lol..
