It would seem that most children have cottoned onto the fact that Santa is NOT real by the time they are seven and three quarters.It doesn't matter if Mum and Dad go outside and ring bells pretending to be reindeer, put sooty footprints on the floor or glitter on their pillowcase, before they're 8 most children have twigged!
Apparently, back in the innocent 70s, children believed in Santa beyond the age of nine, but a new survey by Disney to mark the launch of Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause has found that today's kids are more streetwise.
