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.
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.
When I was younger I used to believe that the moon was made of cheese. I used to want to be an astronaught so I could go to the moon and eat some moon-cheese. I never stopped to think that Wallice and Gromit's 'Grand Day Out' may not actually be true!!
until i was about 6, i was completely convinced the moon was made of pudding. i would always try to convince my mom to take me to the moon so i could try the pudding.
when i was little i thought that the moon was another earth. and i couldn't understand why i could see it in the middle of the day. cauz i figured when it got dark earth went away so we could see it in the sky (but it was really the moon)
i believed that the moon was made of cheese and i tried to go up there but couldn't

When I was 7, there was a speical about asteriods, since there was one that was passing by Earth. I didn't understand it correctly, and I thought the asteriod was going to hit Earth and kill everyone. So I bothered my father daily to make a basement to protect us, and when he told me 'no', I made my own fort and would spend all day looking for any asteriods in the sky.
When I was about 6 or 7 i used to think we lived INSIDE the world I thought that the earth was a hollow ball of dirt and we all lived inside it. My belief wsa confirmed when on a train i looked out of the window the clouds parted and is saw the top of the world!(it was really the moon but i couldnt see the whole thing)And i thought astronauts would fly throught little crater like holes when they went into space.
When I was little I believed that every night my Grandpa would get out a ladder and hang the moon. There was a moon mobile in a mall near my house and I thought he put that up too, but not everyday.
my family and I were vacationing at the beach, and we were fishing pretty late into the day. I remember looking up and asking my mom how they got all those streetlights into the sky (stars).

I was playing with a friend when I first saw a quarter moon. I went inside and nervously informed my mother, "Mom...Sorry but, I broke the moon."
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.
when i was little my dad told me that stars were people who had died and gone to heaven. i would always go outside and pick out my g-ma and g-pa and cousins. when i was in the 4th grade my teacher told me that stars were big balls of gas. i went home cried, and called my dad a liar. but i sitll believe in and im in the 11th grade.
when i was like 7 i used to be really energetic and played alot outside. i used to look at the sun alot. wherever i would go it would go, so i thought that the sun was following me...i even tried to run away from the sun but it wouldnt stop following me. i couldnt juke it. and whenever the sun would go down i thought it was tired of following me and the moon would come out to play.Even my friend believed this.

I used to think that stars were just big holes in a shoe box, a shoe box that we all lived in as pets of a huge giant. Every day when the sun came out that would be him taking the top off of the box and shinning a light in on us all to watch us. At night he closed the lid when he went to bed, but being the nice giant he was left us little air holes as stars so that we could breathe. The moon was our night light, which some nights he forgot to turn on
I used to believe that all planets have the same:
1. gravitational force
2. air pressure
3. temparature range
4. air composition
5. period of rotation
6. period of revolution around its star
as earth.
I used to believe that there really was a man in the moon named Tigger and the stars were all his friends. I even used to smile and say goodnight to him through my window before I went to bed at night.
--I thought that, at night, a giant black blanket was thrown over the top of the world (which I believed was like a snow globe dome) and that the stars were little pin point sized holes someone poked in.
My older sister had come home from school one day and she told me that htey had learnd all about a planet called pluto. She told me about how pluto was very cold because it was a long way away from the sun. Being a little kid i watched cartoons all the time, and i thought that pluto was a doghouse floating out in space with a really cold dog inside. ( Pluto the Dog, from Mickey Mouse)
I used to belive neil Armstrong jumped onto the moon and everyone saw him cause of course he was half a big as it!
I looked at the moon ever since and pictured an astronaught half as big as the moon standing on it with an american flag!
I also belived (like many people) that the moon followed me while in the car at night.
