Its really a bad thing in my opinion. Teach children about a omnipresent invisible judge. Then when they find out it was all a lie.....try to preach the gospel of Jesus. So yes it is a lie and we should teach our children from scripture about the birth of Jesus.
Nothing like lying to your kids for the first few years of their life to make them trust you

You speak to kids as they will understand. If a kid doesn't know what being burnt is you don't tell them that oven will burn you... instead you come up with a way of telling them not to go near it because it will hurt them.
It's not lying to speak to someone in words they will understand.
