We try to teach our kids, not to lie, then tell them that there is a Santa Claus, and Easter Bunny that lays colored eggs, etc. I was told very young, that there was no Santa because I couldn't understand why I didn't get a lot of gifts like the other kids, and I was good. My Dad died when I was 4 years old, and my Mother told me the truth about Santa. We should stop telling lies to the children.

Santa Claus, also known as Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, or simply "Santa" was a historical figure. Saint Nicholas of Myra is the primary inspiration for the Christian figure of Santa Claus. He was a 4th century Christian bishop of Myra in Lycia, a province of the Byzantine Anatolia, now in Turkey. Nicholas was famous for his generous gifts to the poor, in particular presenting the three impoverished daughters of a pious Christian with dowries so that they would not have to become prostitutes. He was very religious from an early age and devoted his life entirely to Christianity. So in this sense, yes, Santa Claus was real.

Ho Ho Ho Santa
The Santa Claus tradition comes from Nicholas Claus the Bishop of Ulm in Germany hundreds of years ago. This real person was also mixed as time went by with the ancient psuedo-pagan mythical figure of Father Christmas. Nicholas of Ulm used to pass out gifts to poor kids at Christmas from a horse drawn sleigh. He was cannonized (made a saint)after his death by the Catholic church.
Santa Claus is real because he was already declared a saint. Therefore, if he is a saint, he can perform miracles such as giving gifts to a mass number of good children

Honest to God, I had never believed in Santa at all when I was kid. I knew it was my parents from day one. I wasn't easily convinced...
