a conversation with my 4-year-old

Him: Mom, how does Santa actually fit down the chimney?

Me: He is magical. He squeezes through there pretty quickly.

Him: But, how does he put our presents under the tree without waking me up?

Me: Very quietly. Santa sneaks into the living room, tip-toeing.

Him: Sneaks?

Me: Yep.

Him: You mean, like I sneak into brother's room to steal his toys?

Me: Uh, yes. Just like that.

Love it!!

We don't have a chimney so I have to use the "magic key" story. My kid is getting too inquisitive though and I'm just hoping she doesn't find out the truth for a couple more years...she's in Kindergarten right now.
