Regardless of whether there is a god or is not a god, the tendency of children to give purpose to natural phenomena and to imagine shit is a fact.
Maybe there is no god - and we do that.
Maybe there is a god - and we do that.
Maybe there is a god - and we do that...for reasons entirely unrelated to their being a god.

I could continue. This question you posed is uninformative, and if it forms the basis of any of your beliefs about god I would say that you're doing god a disservice. That human children tend to do anything, in this case give purpose to things, is no indication that there is any god, or..if there is a god, that god is in any way involved in their doing so.
It's something that we do, and rather than asking others how they explain it you might well want to ask yourself why you can think of no explanation for the behavior of children outside of something about god. What do you think about the conjecture on it's own merits - aside from gods? The conjecture of purpose? My kids say chickens are for laying eggs, aristotle said that the telos of an acorn was to grow into an oak.
