In anticipation of the move, my niece excitedly asked if we would do various things with her (come over to play, go to the park, and go to church). My sister has always been very open with my niece (6-years-old) and my nephew (3) about the fact that not everyone believes what they believe (they're Protestant), but I don't know that she has ever talked to them about the fact that some people don't believe in a god at all. When my niece asked if my fiance would go with them to church, my sister said she didn't think he believed the same things that they do. My niece then asked my sister what I believe, and my sister told her she should ask me about it. She hasn't asked yet, but I want to be prepared. What is the best way to tell my niece I don't believe in god? I appreciate any advice. I'm very close to her and I want to handle this in a way that is honest but doesn't give her more than she can handle at her age.
Does she believe in santa claus or she knows that it's a fake figure?
