As a child, I best remember it as a very primary story. The talking snake. Adam made from dust or clay. Eve made from a rib. An apple tree that you could not eat from. Adam and Eve hiding because they realized for the first time they were naked. God walking in the garden looking for them as they hide from him. Adam and Eve being punished. It seemed very primary when told the story in kindergarten. And it was taught that way. Very primary, very fairy tale like. Was meant as a story about God.
