Children are like sponges, which is why forcing them to worship Jesus is the wrong thing to do. The only memories they'll have of him will be fear and pain.

No, I tell my children facts. The sky is blue, trees are green, Paris is the capital of France, God came down in the form of man and died temporarily to wash away your sins. It is just a fact. Should I wait until they are adults to tell them that I believe a square has four sides but you can make up your own mind? A fact is a fact and should be given to a child as soon as possible.
The obvious exception is if you are under a delusion such as a muslim or an atheist. Then you should clearly keep your thoughts to yourself.

Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
I know God wouldn't let me believe in Him if He didn't exist.
