This would also heat up the reindeer int he same way as spacecrafts re-enter the earth, meaning that the reindeer would have to absorb around 14 Quintilian joules of energy.
Also, no, the belief of Santa is pure bullshit, and I doubt feeding children that kind of information would do much good, besides, why teach children something we have no scientific evidence of?

Why use Santa? It's not even a good myth. It's dull.
And It'd be better they knew you were getting the presents - then they might learn to appreciate their parents rather than to just feel entitled to gifts.
