	not quite or nearly all of zeus's children. you didnt even get the big one like hades, Hephaestus, poseidon etc

	Hades and Poseidon are his brothers, not his children. Eilethyia was also a daughter of Zeus and Hera.

	Zeus's siblings are: Hades, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, and Hestia. He had a gazillion children by a bazillion women (divine and not). While the answer column calls for "hero/god/goddess", Helen isn't a goddess and, by the usual usage in mythology, isn't a hero. In any event, if Helen is included on the list, then so should the Gemini, Castor and Pollux -- or at least Pollux, as Castor's paternity varies from source to source. Hephaestus's paternity is also uncertain, although Hera is definitely his mother.

	I think its a good quiz, also i wouldnt take Helen out, shes not a hero but she is a well known character, and cos youve given clues i wouldnt worry about including all of them.

	Some stories say Aphrodite was Zeus's daughter by a woman named Dione. Eros was definitely his son by Aphrodite.

	well i chose not to include aphrodite because she's usually said to be the result of uranus's castration, and eros is only zeus's son in some versions, some sources like the theogony state that eros sprang forth from chaos, but still, it's a thought and i may reconsider
