What is the average child age that they stop believing in Santa Claus?

Most kids figure it out sometime between 8-10.

It depends on the child. When I married my husband 3 years ago our son still believe in Santa (he was 9 then). It was not long after that he "found" out. A lot of parents don't want their kids believing in Santa anymore. So their kids go to school and ruin it for the other kids honestly.

As a middle school teacher I can tell you that most student start 6th grade no longer believing. So I am going to guess that it is around 3 or 4th grade. So 9 or 10 years old. I have a step daughter who just turned 12 and see still believes but she is really immature for her age.

I'd say the average age is 7 or 8 years old...

ON the other hand, my daughter in law told her child there was no santa clause from the start.

The third grade instructor in our college (scholars are approximately 8 yrs. previous), instructed them that Santa isn't real. i presumed she became into going to be fired. the lady isn't precisely a vibrant bulb first of all. mom and father wanted to kill her. for sure, my scholars (8th graders) don't have self assurance, yet I nonetheless do no longer talk it in college. Its purely no longer my place. I do remember that my brother, who became into 10 on the time, instructed my mom that he knew there had to be a Santa Claus because of the fact there became into NO way Daddy could purchase us lots of those issues! LOL. My Dad have been given a kick out of that. i think of they have been given to stretch out his perception in Santa a pair of greater years with that concept. keep them believing as long as achievable! They enhance up too quickly.

I was around 8 or 9. My son just turned 7 and was kinda iffy about if from school but i've done a good job with convincing otherwise again ;) so this will probably be his last year believing.

When they walk in and see you wrapping all the presents that were on their list to santa. That's usually around 8

my daughter was 10 but some kids believe til 12
