33 // Is Santa Claus Coming to Town?

The concept of Santa Claus is just one of those things that's in the air during the holiday season; our kids will catch it one way or another.

John is about to enter this holiday season with a three-year-old who's only just starting to become aware of Santa Claus. Patrick helps him work through whether and how he'll go about it. Oh, and this article from PBS NewsHour helps too.
