I wonder how my 10 year old has made it to 5th grade without hearing that Santa isn't real. I'm so thankful that (at least in my area) it isn't a priority to crush the childrens dreams of Christmas joy.

That's funny. Your kid knows. It's just playing along with you. Santa is fun. Even when you know he's a "pretend" character. I still sign Santa on some of the gifts I give my wife, and I promise that she knows where they really came from.
But...you go ahead and believe that your 10-year-old still really believes that Santa exists and lives at the North Pole and flies a sled pulled by reindeer.
My 11 year old said the following "Okay, I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm just wondering how do you and Dad do all that stuff?" I think he is almost more amazed that my hubby and I can pull off making Christmas so magical. I'm glad.
