Given that they are 5 and 3 that wouldn't be too hard. (Although, they are pretty smart - but then, so thinks every parent.)
If you're so smart why are you musing on so many pointless and uninteresting questions?
There are much more interesting things to contemplate: does God exist? what are the implications of a world without God? and so on.
Start using your brain ...

No need to fight you two, lets keep this discussion civil

That's just something people tell you to keep your spirits up when you ask one. There are indeed dumb questions.
I'm guilty of asking one or two myself.
But seriously, most of your questions are framed from one perspective - getting into the nature of your belief. That's cool, but you should try to go beyond this perspective and step outside your beliefs. Be critical of them. Analyse the nature of them. Why do you believe these things? Why do other people believe other things?

Fair enough, but I would go back to an earlier point of mine.
Either God does whatever the hell it wants - since it's God and can do so, without rhyme or reason. (God by definition being outside the bounds of nature need not act in any sort of reasoned way.)
Or God does not exist, since the actions attributed to it are at best contradictory and at worst incomprehensible.
