When I was really little, I was really afraid of camping outside because my older cousins would tell me a story about a wolf that eats babies. According to them, those wolves were near dangerous to little kids like me. They could unzip the tent from outside, they would drag me out by my shirt, and then they would eat me. I was so terrified and believed that for way too long!

When I was a child I used to in the little mousse, I thought she came at night when I slept and she lift my cushion to go underneath and give a present. It’s a bittersweet memory because when I woke up, I was very happy but today I know my parents were the real little mouse

When I was little I believed that kangaroos were a kind of a dinosaur, because I had a toy dinosaur that looked like a kangaroo.

I used to believe that the moon was cheese and a rabbit lived there, sometimes I think it was true :)

For some reason I had two weird beliefs related to octopuses when I was about five (maybe four, maybe six but around that age). The first was when Dad told me that my aunt and her roommate were visiting and for some crazy reason, I thought that they'd bring an octopus with them.
The second was that I thought that at some point in history, an octopus had tried to be Santa but then realized it couldn't breathe air, so it gave up and let Santa do the present-delivering.

When I was young, I used to believe hamsters were able to talk because I saw the movie " Ratatouille" so I wanted to talk with my hamster.
One day, my mother saw me during my pseudo conversation and she told me that a hamster can't talk.
After that, I was crying.
Now, when I saw a hamster I think about this story.
