When did you realize who Santa was when you were a child?👀🎄

Waking up in the morning was so much fun for Christmas 🩷

That feeling of excitement, even if I remember it now, I feel warm... 🥹🎁

Do you remember the moment when you realized "Santa Claus... by any chance?" 💭

"I learned from exposure from friends... 👀"

"Do you still believe it's real 😍"

"My child still believes, so I have to prepare a present 😂"

"I might not have been there in the first place lol"

We are waiting for a lot of episodes 🩷

... Read more「サンタさんの正体は親なの?」って、子育てしていると一度は気になりますよね。私も毎年クリスマスが近づくと、子どもがどのタイミングで「サンタの正体」に気づくのかドキドキします。 周りで多いのは、小学校低学年〜中学年あたりで「サンタさんの正体 いつ 気づく」問題が起きるパターン。きっかけはだいたい次のどれかでした。 1) 友達からの暴露 「サンタの正体は親だよ」と言われて帰ってくるケース。本人は半信半疑でも、“証拠探しモード”に入るのが早いです。 2) プレゼントの入手経路が見える 通販の段ボール、押し入れの奥の包装紙、レシートなど。「サンタ 正体 親」説を強める材料が家の中に転がりがちでした。 3) 字やセンスでバレる タグのメッセージの筆跡、ラッピングのクセ、選ぶものの趣味が親っぽい…。「正体はお父さん?」と疑われるのはここが多い印象です。 わが家で意識している“バレにくくする工夫”は、(a) 梱包材や伝票は即処分、(b) ラッピング用品は子どもが見ない場所に保管、(c) メッセージは印刷にする、の3つ。特に筆跡は決定打になりやすいので、カードを印刷に変えたら疑いが薄れました。 とはいえ、気づき始めた時期の対応も大事で、私は「サンタさんの正体は誰?」と詰められたときは、否定で押し切るより“子どもの考えを聞く”ようにしています。「どうしてそう思ったの?」と聞くと、友達の話だったり、家で見つけたものだったり、理由が分かって次の対策もしやすいです。 最後に、もし完全にバレたとしても、私は「プレゼントをもらえるワクワク」と「誰かを喜ばせる気持ち」は残したい派。なので翌年からは、サンタ役を一緒にやってもらったり、家族への小さなギフト交換に変えたりしています。気づく瞬間はちょっと寂しいけど、次の楽しみにアップデートできると、クリスマスの空気がまた温かくなりました。
