Useless Facts

I had the great pleasure a while back to be the Bible teacher for the 6 to 12 year old kids at our church. The kids seemed to take to me pretty well and together we not only learned alot, but had alot of fun in the process. (that comes as no surprise for most of you I'm sure) Their favorite part was not the Bible story though. The first night I knew I only had fifteen minutes to tell the story and dismiss them to their proper classes. I quickly went through the story (for a church of God minister that is extremely difficult) when I finished I found I had five more minutes and they could not leave the room until the fifteen minutes were up so I started a tradition that they fell in love with. I gave them the "useless fact of the day." I got such a kick out of these I thought I would share some of them.
