My mom told us at a very young age that Santa didn't exist, and we didn't celebrate Christmas after I was 7. She did tell us not to tell other kids though, because they didn't know and we shouldn't spoil it for them. My son is 3 and I'm sure I'll tell him about Santa. He kind of knows about Santa after this Christmas but is too young to fully understand yet. I never really felt bad as a child that I knew Santa didn't exist, but I want him to have that experience and make Christmas more special now.
