Is it a sin to lie if we cannot convince the child otherwise?

Just as a lie is a sin when told to an adult, it is also haram when told to a child. Yes, it may not be possible to explain everything to children. In this case, an expression that is not a lie but will not pose a problem when told to them should be used.
