Weigh in on Santa for me?

We're Jewish and haven't perpetrated the myth of Santa at all. My daughter (almost 5)has reasoned for herself that "Santa is just a man who dresses up in a suit" and kind of sees it as an extension of Halloween. She gets that Santa brings presents.
We haven't broached the topic of WHY people celebrate Christmas. But she knows that we celebrate Hannukah and she understands some of the basic tenets of the holiday. She is mostly looking forward to food and the presents she knows her parents give her.
