I was in Kindergarten when Pokemon started appearing, and for a while the Lunchables lunch kits had these little miniature cards on the back the you could cut out. The Pokemon "Mr.Mime" was on one of the cards, and I was convinced it said "Mr.Mine". So one little boy I was sitting by pointed to Mr. Mime and goes, "What's that one's name?" I reply, "Mr.Mine!" The little boy said, "What does he do?" I told him, "He is a coal miner that works in the coal mines all day. That's why he's called Mr. Mine." I bet that poor little boy believed that all his life.....

I could've sworn, at the age of 6, that my stuffed animals had conversations when nobody was around. This is why I'd place them facing each other when I would make my bed in the morning. I actually treated them like real people.
I used to think that when I went to sleep all my stuffed animals would go into the toy box and have a party. Then they would go to school, and learn things. I used to think that if I didn't fall asleep the animals would kick me, and I once thought I saw them move. I still watch them all the time. Though, maybe I killed them all from starving them. XD
When I was younger I used to believe that when I wasn't in my bedroom my toys when get up and move around (like Toy Story). I used to think they had parties and played games while I was out. I loved my stuffed toys. We used to do everything together.

I used to believe that when I was asleep that all my toys would come alive and all my clothes would come alive and break out of my cupboard and have a party!
When I was little, (6 years old) i had an insane fear of swallowing things that aren't meant to be swallowed. On many occasions I would run, bawling, to my mom to tell her that i had swallowed my bouncy ball. whenever i lost something, i was convinced that i had put it in my mouth and accidentally swallowed it.
But one time, all of my friends had little keychains with virtual pets called GigaPets. I had one too, and it was a dog. We were forbidden to bring them to school, but I snuck mine into my backpack. i lost it during lunch, but during the rest of the day i kept hearing faint barking noises and I was convinced I had swallowed my GigaPet. I went up to my teacher, crying, and told her that I had swallowed my GigaPet. She asked the class, and it turns out that someone had snuck theirs into school.

When I was little I used to think humans were dolls and giants played with us. They made our every move. Pretty silly. Huh?
My brother just had the weirdest hobby ever.One time at school when he was a kindergardener he was painting and he painted himself green and was sent home.Like a week later at home he painted himself Blue.
my mom decided he wanted to be a rainbow
I had one of those bouncy balls with the handle on it that you sat on and bounced around...I used to believe that was the way I would ALWAYS get around, forever....no more walking for me. Gee, I miss that bouncy ball!
When I was like 4 or 5, I used to believe that the barbies I played with had barbies smaller than them and those barbies had barbies smaller than them and that when I went to sleep, I big giant would come and use me as a barbie so every night i would try to catch the giant.:-)
I used to think that all of my stuffed animals had their own private lives, and yet they managed to find time to be with me. I was very afraid to offend even one of them, so I had to sleep with every single one each night. I thought that if one of them became angry, it might harm me. I had quite a few stuffed animals, and managed to achieve this by making a little nest out of all my animals, and sleeping in the middle of them. I have now aquired a small collection of stuffies over the course of a relationship, and they all have to sleep on my bed with me. I'm 27! You'd think I would have gotten over that irrational fear. Now, I think it is just habit rather than terror that keeps them near me.
When I was in second grade, my best friend lied a lot, and one day he told me that he had a motorcycle. I asked if he would come and pick me up on it, and he said he would. I spent all afternoon looking out the window for him, until my parents finally told me he was lying. The next day he said him mom wouldn't let him come get me, but from then on, I never believed him when he said stuff like that.
When I was younger, I used to believe that my entire life was being filmed and all the people in my life were actors (like in The Truman Show). I would be in the shower or somewhere else alone and I would say, "I know you're there! I can see the cameras!" with the hope that the directors would give up. I also used to think that I was the only human on Earth and that everyone else were robots.
i used to believe that at night my teddy bears wud cum alive and get cold if they didnt have a blanket on them so i used to put them in bed wiv me. i had about 30!

when i was younger, i thought that people disappeared when i wasn't with them.
I used to think that the Rainbow Club (something like Girls Scouts) would hold their meetings on actual rainbows. I actually worried about how they would have their meetings on non-rainy days.
When I was little my mom said when you left your room all your dolls would get up and talk to eachother. So I would stand flat up against the wall outside my room so the dolls couldnt see me and then jump back in my room trying to catch them talking, I was always so amazed they could jump back into their spots without me catching them.

I used to believe that when I went to sleep at night, my toys would come alive and play together.
My mom bought me a whole collection of trolls of the internet. My friend came over one day and she said that if you rub thier belly and then kiss it and make a wish it would come true. So i tried it and i asked for 20 bucks but i never got it. :(
My parents couldn't afford to get me a real cabbage patch kid, so I had a knock-off, with someone else's signature on the butt. I also had a space heater in my room for cold nights. For some reason, one evening just before bed, my mother decided it was important to tell me that some bad men had been using fake cabbage patch kid dolls to smuggle explosives into the country, and I should keep my doll away from the heater at all costs or it would explode and burn the house down. I hid the heater in the closet and threw my precious doll out the window.
