Poem: Believe in Santa Claus
The tradition of giving gifts in the winter feast began in ancient Rome
St Nicholas lived many centuries ago
Because of his deeds St Nicholas became the patron saint of children
The spirit of St Nicholas and the tradition of the winter feast
Were handed down to Santa Claus.

The Santa Myth
Elaine Gibson
At some point in every child's life, parents must face the BIG question,What do I tell my child about Santa? When do I tell my child the truth? How do I tell my child that Mom and Dad are really Santa?
I approached these details with a great deal of bias from my own childhood. My parents told me the truth before I wanted to hear it. My cousin asked for a bike and Santa brought him one. I had wanted a bike but Santa didn't bring me one. My mother was worried that I would think Santa loved Jimmy more since Jimmy got his wish.
