There could be something

There could be something wrong with it if it leads someone else astray or doesn't represent yourself the way you should as a Christian - even if there is nothing 'magical' or superstitious about it.

I've been on both sides of this issue in the past, and can see both things. Children don't see it as that. On the other hand, it is a greedy holiday - children could see that if it were mentioned. It's a different spirit from thanksgiving as usually celebrated (leaving apart church and caroling, etc - and just the secular part of it).
