WWYD?
Noah's reading group in school is reading Superfudge. In this book, the whole "Santa is your parents" thing is discussed. (Thanks a lot Judy Blume!) Noah still believes with his whole heart. This isn't really the way I want him to find out. Especially at this time of year! I'm sure he's not the only other 3rd grader that believes. Would you sent an email to the teacher? Part of me wants to, but then the other part feels like a jerk for maybe messing up a teaching plan or something. So what would you do?

Wait - there's no Santa?????
I would email the teacher to see how she plans to handle. Also I think there is some type of letter floating around Pinterest on how to address not believing in Santa if you do have to have the conversation with him. Even if he doesn't read the book, 3rd grade seems to be around the time that some kids know the truth, so as the holiday approaches, I'm sure he'll start hearing the rumors!
He started asking for Christmas specials last night. I thought of you when I put our Rudolph DVD in
Ditto! Wonder why they'd pick that book now?
Oh I am so glad to see you emailed the teacher! I am hoping she didn't realize that came up in the book? It's sad thinking about when they don't believe so definitely keep that going as long as you can! Definitely let us know what she says!!!
I would like to add that I am so sad to think of finding out at 3rd grade. Seriously do I only have like 3 more years of Santa with dd?!?! I didn't stop believing till late so 3rd grade seems so young. Ugh...with having only 1 kid it means I dont have another kid to keep going with! Once she is done that's it!
That was me! I believed till like 5th grade. I doubted for a couple years before that but was too worried I wouldn't get presents! Figured I'd better be on the safe side and keep believing!

don't you think most kids will just read it anyway b/c who stops in the middle of a book?
Excuse my language but what a dumb book to pick anyway! Aren't there a million other books they can choose from to read and they pick one that "outs" Santa.
I think I believed until at least 5th grade, maybe 6th. I mean I knew the flying reindeer thing was a stretch but I couldn't fathom my parents buying us all the gifts they did for 5 girls.
