The funny things children say at Christmas: 'There were sheep, horses and a CROCODILE outside the stable'
the Daily Mail: "A recent survey revealed that one in three young adults had no idea that Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Other religious blank spots included the role of the Archangel Gabriel, with more than a quarter having no idea that Gabriel brought God's message to Mary at her home in Nazareth to say that she would give birth to a son.
So what do Britain's youngsters really know about Christmas? Femail quizzed four to nine-year-olds at four primary schools in Britain to find out."What gifts did the three wise men bring?
Rashneet, six, from Broad Oak Primary School, Manchester: "The wise men brought coconut oil which was made of coconut, some sweets and some gold."
Jay, five, from Broomhill Infant School, Bristol: "The three wise men brought Jesus presents of gold, frankincense, smurr (sic) and silver. But I think he would have preferred wrestling toys."
Daniel, seven, from Stanfield Merchant Taylors' Junior School, Merseyside: "I know for his birthday he got money and gold from the wise men but I would have given him a Liverpool kit."
Dominic, six, Merchant Taylors: "I don't know what the three wise men brought Jesus but I would have given him a tin of biscuits. I think Mary, Joseph and Jesus would have all liked a biscuit."
Rebecca, five, Merchant Taylors: "They brought Jesus gold and myrrh but I would have brought him a nice warm blanket."
William, seven, Merchant Taylors: "I don't know what presents the wise men brought Jesus but a Lego set would have been better."
Ellie, five, Broomhill Infants: "The three wise men brought Jesus gold, frankincense and myrrh - no real presents. I feel sorry for him."
Ellie, six, Merchant Taylors: "When he was born three kings brought him gold, coins and a sheep." continued

A Funny Christmas Test For England's Children
They wanted to see how much the children there actually knew about the true origins of Christmas so they put together a little questionnaire for kids and asked them for the Daily Mail and their answers are kind of amusing.
