Don't say we didn't warn you! 🎅
Once, during the middle of a long drive, my then-preschooler hit me with: “Mommy, is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer real?” I tried skirting the issue—”Well, honey, he lives with Santa at the North Pole”—to no avail: “But is he REAL?” She wasn’t taking anything less than full commitment. I don’t like the idea of, but in the heat of the moment, sweating bullets, I caved: “Yes! Yes, he’s real!”
Now, with the holidays on the horizon, I’m hoping to avoid anything that might spark her next round of grilling. For families who opt in on the full Santa story—North Pole, elves, magic sleigh, hauling loot down chimneys —can be a tricky thing to negotiate. Save yourself a little angst by keeping these books and movies out of your holiday media rotation until you’re ready to have The Talk about Jolly Old Saint Nick.
Even movies that wholeheartedly embrace the existence of Santa can get kids thinking if some characters are doubters.Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas , is all about Goofy trying to convince his skeptical son, Max, that Santa is real—without a resolution that’s particularly convincing.A young girl’s belief in Santa is ridiculed in this animated tale. But it’s ultimately sweet and heartwarming, if kids aren’t distracted by Virginia’s doubts.The movie begins with Santa taking a fatal fall off the main character’s roof—which leads to him inheriting the red suit and all that comes with it.
