I let my kids believe as long as possible. This is the 1st year of everyone "knowing" the truth. My youngest will turn 12 in January. They all found out in school. The buck stops in grade 6. When my other two sons found out, they were ok about not sharing as the knowing trickled down.
I forget what age it was for me. I think allowing kids to believe keeps some "magic" in the holiday.
