When I was small, I thought that the moon was a big cheese, and when there wasn´t a full-moon I thought that a giant had bitten of a bit of the moon/cheese.

When I was younger my father and I used to watch a lot of westerns on TV. There were always "shootouts" between the Cowboys and the Indians...I used to believe that the stars in the skies were make from the arrows and the bullets that didn't hit their mark. I thought they didn't have stars before this because in the night scenes it was always black in the sky. From the minds of children come amazing thoughts sometimes...lol...

I use to think that the sun and moon were one and the same. I thought in the day time, when it was on, we called it the sun, and at night, when it wasn't as bright, we called it the moon. This was until on a clear day i saw the moon and the sun were separate.

I used to think you had to get off planet Earth and get on a spaceship to go to another country and that all countries were different planets.

The star wishing thing... Yeah. I used to believe that. Then I got mad and had a fit when my wishes of becoming a butterfly didn't come true...

When i was reallllllllly little like 2, or something, i used to think that i owned to moon and i would sob and sob whenever "my" moon didnt come out. (like if it was cloudy or a new moon or something)

there was this girl in my grade 12 history class who asked the question when the class got off topic, "Is the sun like a planet, like can you land on it" me and my friends laughed so hard.

Once when i was five, i was outside and the moon was out. I would walk down our sidewalk and watch the moon from the corner of my eye. I always believed that the moon followed me. So I would run back and forth in our yard, trying to escape it!

Once, when looking at a sharp crescent moon, my mom pointed at it said "Look, the Cheshire Cat!"

Of course I know better, but I STILL imagine the crescent moon being the Cheshire Cat's smile!

Scary Dream

Me and my friend used to believe that space was in God's belly

Lia

When I was small I used to believe that the sun was like a big disc, with the sun on one side and the moon on the other.

When I was little I had a hard time holding on to my balloons, so they would always fly away. After a while I came to believe that there must be a planet full of my balloons that had gotten carried off into space, since i had lost so many.

I used to think the CareBears lived on the moon, and the blackish spots (actually craters) were where the CareALot cities were.

i used to believe that there was a light bulb in the moon and when i grew up, i wanted to be the person that had to change it.

I used to believe that if you counted all the stars in the sky, a shooting star would appear and place itself somewhere in my honour just because I had accomplished the task of counting every star in the sky.

When I was little I used to think of the night sky as a BIG blanket and the moon and stars where holes in the blanket and if you looked real close through the holes they called stars you could see shadowy figures going by.

When I was young, my sister told me the stars get in the sky when I'm not looking by shooting out of the flowers at night! One night, I actually sat on the patio watching the flowers in our yard, waiting for the stars to come out!

Scary Dream

I learned in the first grade that the Sun was a star just like all the other stars, only it was MUCH bigger.

When I was little and the news would talk about "illegal aliens" I thought they seriously meant aliens from outer space! I thought Omigod! Not only are they aliens but they are illegal!

Stevie

I used to believe that if you saw the first star of the night and said "Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight" your wish would be granted. I thought you could trick it too, pretend that you only saw one star even if you'd seen more.
