Geoff:
When I was a child and when my own children were young, Father 
Christmas came but, in addition to his gifts, he brought gifts from 
Mum and Dad and other family members who had given them to him to 
deliver.

So, for example, when the Weasleys were young, they could have had 
the same structure.

Thought to Potioncat. Father Christmas is certainly real in the 
Narnian region of the Wizarding World.
