As a child, my big brother used to make me pick my nose and swallow. Told me I would be as big as him. How I longed for that.

I slept under the bed most days because I was convinced I had seen a ghost. Don't ask me what it looked like, all I knew was that I had seen it. Amen!

I used to think Thank = Thank you, so when I read Thank you, I would say Thank you you

I remember asking my dad who I would marry, thinking that I had to marry at age 5. I later suggested a family friend who was the same age.

As a child I had thought When an actor or actress dies in a particular movie, they also die in Real Life...so anytime I see em in another movie I would be like "hanhan but this one is dead nau" and another blv that London is up there behind the cloud

Mimzyy:


Lol, I practically 'watched the moon follow me to school every week day. At a point, I made it a point of duty to say goodbye, see you in the afternoon moon.

Moon? In the afternoon?

As a kid and being the last child in the family, I had thought its only little kids like me that could be last born. The day my sister told me my dad was the lastborn of his family i did not believe it. And i never believed it till i grew up.

I use to have the feeling that when I become an adult I will have enough time to flex now I know better

As a child I used to think that when we ate, we had little beings lined up in us with plates and spoons in which food fell into from our throats I knew better when I grew n was thought the digestive system.

Swallowing guava seeds would result in it growing out from my head

I believed that babies come from heaven after she gave birth to my baby bro (always asked mum and that was her response)

...that movie characters were real characters.
...that whenever a stranger says "hi" to me or ask for my help in any way, they want to turn me into a tortoise.
...etc.

As a child, I though urinating alone inside the vagina brings pregnancy.


Also, believing that I will be with my Parents till eternity. Until both left before I clocked 27.

When I was a child I thought 20 Naira note was the real deal ..

mom said I was too in love with 20naira note that when I am taunted with a 500naira note I would cry down the city for my 20naira note


but now ... if you near me with 20naira .. make sure it's my balance

I loved the look of the Reverend fathers and told myself that I would go to the seminary when I grow up but ha!... A niqqa did grow up and change lanes. I'm happily married.

jejemanito:
Walahi I'm not understanding you

Is it that you thought the sun and moon were the same?

I thought when you eat, it goes to your head and also, there are people living in a radio set, talking, singing and playing musical instruments.

Katyusha:
A girl in my class managed to convince me that girls don't poop. Funny thing is, my (other guys) and I believed the story.

I had that same conviction at age 7 until my baby sister pooped on my palm while I was carrying her.

maputohq:
As kids, lot of thoughts runs through our head which we find out to be absurd while we are grown. These thoughts are influenced on how we view things as kids and we end up creating funny theories based on our perception.
While I was younger (3-6 years), I was always coming up with theories and updating them when necessary. They were known to me alone some of which are:
1. i had thought macaroni causes the production of phlegm and so, causes the mouth to stink;
2. i had the view that children below 5 would return to become babies if they are allowed into the hospital ward. this was as a result of me being disallowed to go past the reception because i was "small";
3. in relation to number 2, i thought babies were manufactured in the hospital and being in the hospital they can never grow. i later updated my theory that women gets pregnant only when married; others
4. i can fly at the sound of trumpet;
5. food eaten drops to toe till it gets to the head;
6. the top of a mobstick are dreadlocks.
let's know yours.

My father died when I was 5.....on the day of his burial one of my uncles told me that I shouldn't cry because my Dad has gone to rest and he will be back on his 1 year memorial service. But before one year I realized that others who died before him did not come back after 1 year

This is touching my mom once told me of a friend who went about telling people his mom was locked in a cupboard(casket).
