Haha! That's great. I'll have to try that next year. For now my girl runs to bed when Daddy says, "That's it. I'm e-mailing Santa right now."

My parents always used to use the threat of coal in our stockings.

I always let the kids open one gift on Xmas Eve to discover new pj and once in them sent to bed.

Like most kids they already knew what they were getting, having found all the places we tried to hide their gifts.

We do this too. Every Christmas eve we get to open up one present early, usually in the form of PJs, slippers, or a robe. I got my robe early this year though =)

We use Norad every year. About 2 hours ago, it was counting down from around 5 hours before Santa starts his journey. We are ready for take-off!

And we use the "I am going to call Santa to find out the truth" thing when my kids come in and get into one of those "he's lying, I didn't do it, it was him!" moments. Once I told the boys I was going to check the video tape to see who was telling the truth. My youngest owned up to it and then when they walked out, thehusbandguy looked at me in amazement and said, "I don't fcking believe that worked." Smiley: grin

I hear copious amounts of sleeping drugs work well on children.

Rime without the Sume, is like the bewb without the bounce!

Pikko, does Santa come to Hawaii on a boat? I seem to remember my cousin saying that, when they transferred from Hawaii to Chicago, that it would be the first year Santa came by sleigh for his kids. So I sent both kids a baggie of reindeer food to sprinkle on the snow (Oatmeal mixed with colored decorating sugar). It sparkles in the moonlight on the snow and the reindeer can see it as they fly over. They loved it.

Haha, I see my refusal to call you Rime after you changed to Rime made you cave.

Insane logic FTW.

What kind of stick though? I've found that a paint stirring sticks works quite well. The wood is lightweight enough to build up exceptional speed, but strong enough it won't break upon repeated usage.

Thanks for the idea! LOL my 9 year old who was so sure he had the "Santa" thing figured out earlier this week is now calling and questioning his friends after seeing the high tech tracking devices ^.~

I read an article with ideas on how to finally admit the truth about Santa. The one I liked the best was that Santa is a legend passed down through generations to honor the first Santa and that it wouldn't be passed on if he/she spilled the beans to his younger siblings/friends.

Now see I'm not worried about him ruining it for his younger brother 6, and sister 5, he's a good brother and he's been helping them write letter's to Santa, and such :)

Liberal Conspiracy

TILT
Since we spent all day yesterday driving across country, I just told Joph. Jr that Santa was coming early since we wouldn't be home and put presents out on the night of the 22nd. Actually, I don't even know if he still actually believes or if he just goes along with it for the spirit of things but I try to cover my bases.

My backyard is basically a field then some woods. There's a radio tower to the south of our house and because of the woods you can only see one of the red lights blinking. My dad would go to the window and say, "Uh oh I see Rudolph's nose blinking. That means Santa is close, you better hurry up and get in the bed." It worked on me and my sister everytime. It was kind of hard to see aless you were really looking for it and we never bothered to check for it on a normal night.
