Aah, the marvelous minds of children, and the things they say!!
I recall many years ago enjoying a show where kids were interviewed and asked to give their opinion on various subjects.
Their answers were pretty funny and at times, depending on the subject, downright embarrassing for some of the respective parents.
The following answers were given by some Elementary School kids when questioned about the Old and New Testament and are just too funny.
These answers were written by children and have not been retouched or corrected - any spelling errors have been left in.
A 1: In the first book of the Bible, Guinessis. God got tired of creating the world so he took the Sabbath off.
A2: Adam and Eve were created from an Apple Tree. Noah's wife was Joan of Ark. Noah built an Ark and the animals came in pears.
A3: Lot's wife was a Pillar of Salt during the day but a Ball of Fire during the night.
A4: The Jews were a proud people and throughout history they had trouble with Unsympathetic Genitals.
A5: Samson slayed the Philistines with the Axe of the Apostles.
A6: Moses led the Jews to the red sea where they made Unleavened Bread which is bread made without any ingredients.
A7: The Egyptians were all drowned in the dessert. Afterwards Moses went up to Mount Cyanide to get the Ten Commandments.
A8: The First Commandment was when Eve told Adam to eat the apple.
A9: The Seventh Commandment is Thou Shalt Not Admit Adultery.
A10: Moses died before he ever reached Canada.
A11: David was a Hebrew King who was skilled at playing the Lair. He fought the Finkelsteins, a race of people who lived in Biblical Times.
A12: Solomon, one of David's sons had 300 wives and 700 porcupines.

A15: It was a miracle when Jesus rose from the dead and managed to get the tombstone off the entrance.

After teaching the Bible for many years to adults and young people, sometimes I find kids actually understand it more straightforwardly because their minds are less cluttered with propaganda about why Bible accounts could not be true as its original authors claimed!
Hi Rory
Thank you for your valuable feedback and interesting comment. Children do have a most wholesome perception of the Bible and its characters and meanings – we adults could learn something from them. But then too, the Bible does instruct us – ‘to be a little children’.

My kids understand it fine, to be a book of stories!
