When They Ask — How to Talk to Your Kids About the Magic of Santa
The Santa question always seems to come out of nowhere — in the car, before bedtime, or right in the middle of dinner. What do you say when your child asks if Santa is real?
In this heartfelt episode, Laura Wilson and Tatiana Rivers explore how to approach this milestone conversation with intention. They share personal stories from their own childhoods, discuss when kids usually start asking, and unpack how to align your response with your family’s core values — from honesty and trust to wonder and generosity.
You’ll hear thoughtful strategies for:
- Preparing and aligning with your partner before the question comes
- Responding in ways that protect both the magic and the meaning
- Validating your child’s emotions while strengthening connection
✨ The key message: It’s not about having the perfect answer — it’s about offering a thoughtful and intentional one.
