Magical Thinking Starts at a Young Age Children are primary make-believe enthusiasts, they embrace fantasies like imaginary friends with passion. This is normal in child development. This belief comes in different forms including Santa and the Tooth Fairy. Children, in addition, hold onto objects like a special stuffed toy or dirty torn blanket to help keep their fears and anxieties at bay. And shutting the bedroom closet door will definitely keep the monsters away. When do children start and stop believing? Children start to believe when they are toddlers. Adults feed into their magical thinking with beliefs such as Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, among others. As children grow older, at around age 10, they do away with fantastical play, and question how feasible magical thinking is. How can a man fly in the sky and shower every child on earth with gifts? Children may well dispense with such beliefs, but they still keep their superstitions within reach.
