Y'all know that ice cream man song that has the lady that says "HELLO" right? Well when I was 8, I literally thought the ice cream man recorded my mom's voice and used it in the song.
The hello actually sounds like my mom when she answers the phone. That hello is a running joke in my family still to this day.

I used to believe that hotel lifts had secret passages that would have led
You to the beach, if you were staying there in Summer.

When I was a child, I used to believe that there were little guys inside traffic lights changing lights colours with small buttons. One day, I was walking with my mother in the street and I judged that it took too much time and I slamed at the light saying "Can anyone change colours, please?". My mother was surprised and she said to me how a traffic light worked and that there were not a few guys who change colour. I was shocked ;-;.

I thought I lived before stoplights existed because we were stuck in traffic. We were going on a ramp towards a bridge.

It's simple: I thought Dollar Tree was a casino.
So, from a young age I was told gambling was a bad idea, and from the age I was, I thought that the name Dollar Tree referred to all the money you could earn. I later learned it was a dollar store.

I used to think that fire trucks and ambulances drove all the way back to the station backwards.
