Christmas Story Of Jesus - Churches (Traditional) teaching verses God truth (The Bible)

1) Let's look at this verse: Does it say three wise men?

"Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem. Saying where is he that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him." Matt 2:1-2

The Bible itself does not specify the number of wise men visited Jesus Christ, so why do we Christians say three (3) wise men rather than the wise men? Is it because only three wise men gave gifts (gold, myrrh and incense)?

2: House or stable?

"And when they were come into the house they saw the young child with Mary his mother and fell down and worshipped him and when they had opened their treasures, they presented to him gifts; gold and frankincense and myrrh." 2:1

Why do Christians say the wise men visited Christ on the night of his birth. Matthew Chapter 2 vs 11 clearly say the wise men visited and worshipped Christ in a house where Mary and Jesus were staying. Also, Matthew chapter 2 depicts Christ as a young child and not a "babe"

Please, let's correct the errors associated with Christmas especially those Christmas plays (inaccurate teachings) at church.
