I used to believe that you could see people on the moon.

I used to believe that a night turns into day after a man (like a night watchman) comes with his big flashlight and kinda point it towards the dark sky and use it like an eraser so it becomes a day. So used to pretend iwas asleep and wake up in the middle of the night and look out my window for the man with the flashlight and fall asleep until my eyes no longer could stay open.

We thought the moon was made of cheese and it was our dream to eat it

qwerty,ally

I believed that the sun and the moon were the same thing.

Tammy

I used to believe that the sun and moon would follow me, so whenever I was in a car I would hide under a blanket.

I used to believe that the moon was a big cheese wheel

When I was little I always saw a 'woman in the moon', not a man. When other people would talk about the man in the moon I thought they were tricking me or being mean to the woman by calling her a man. I still see a woman in the moon.

Tell 10 years old I really believed that the moon was made of cheese, and that it is very easy to get there. I also believed that if you jump high enough, you can fly. I had great moments jumping and thinking that, I still remember the feeling of almost flying, great imagination can make you feel wonderful sometimes-

When I was about five years old, I used to think that the world was turned inside out. (i.e. the people walked around on the inside of the earth's crust, instead of the outside.) I also thought that the sun was a small ball in the very center of my inside-out world, about where the earth's core is.

I used to believe that the sun & moon were the same size and that they both revolved around the earth.

Rick

I used to think the earth was flat.

When I was 8 I've read about black holes. Black hole sucks everything... I thought it's inside my toilet.

I used to look at the big dipper question mark and think why everything in space looks still, yet moving somehow...where are they going..or what holds all the things in space? I was most awed when I learned our planet earth like is moving across space and we are not falling off of it somehow? Also I believed the shooting stars are actually bodies moving off to another space-time dimension!

My little brother once was in the car with the sun in his eyes. He told me to shut it off.
Another time, he was lying on the couch, and the sun was in his eyes again. He told me to close the window, and I told him that it wouldn't matter if the window was closed; it's made of glass. He then demanded that I pick him up and reposition him so that he wasn't facing the window. Are all kids that lazy when they're five?

RJ

The moon was made from cheese

Lucy

my friend had a teacher who was convinced that the world really was flat, and for a while he had her convinced too! until she figured out that, logically, that can't really be true what with the orbits around the sun, and such

F.S.

When I was a child I used to believe that the moon was a big lamp.

When i was a little girl i used to make prayers shooting stars. Every day i saw a shooting star i prayed for my family, for them not to die. But one day, when my grandfather died, i stopped praying because i was thinking ist was a malediction. Now i just look at this beatiful event.
