i didn't believe in santa, god or the easter bunny
however, when my mum said "run upstairs and get my whatever-it-is-i-want-this-time from my dressing table and i'll count how long it takes you", i actually believed she was counting and that i was getting faster at running up the stairs :(

At Joe Scaramanga's wedding
There was a guy there in his 20s who was really popular with all the kids (yes yes - calm down) - probably because he was, in essence, a bit shit at saying "No" to them when they demanded piggyback rides, and swinging 'round, etc.

He was visibly knackered, and just wanted some grown-up company and to enjoy a few beers.

The look of relief, admiration, and gratitude on his face when Mrs Vagabond introduced him to the joy of saying excitedly to them "Let's play Hide & Seek!" was wonderful.

I found my nephew in the airing cupboard at christmas "playing hide and seek with daddy".
His daddy had been asleep in front of the telly for at least an hour.

The second line of this^^^
Completely defused the terrible image that was forming in my mind when I read the first line.

I can't do that with my niece
if I take too long "looking for her" she'll leave her hiding place, come to where I'm sitting and, paradoxically, say "Found you! You hide!"
