Jesus' reply to his worried parents when they located him at the Temple shows that Jesus knew the miraculous nature of his birth and realized his Messianic future. (Lu 2:41-52)

Reasonably, his mother and his adoptive father had passed on to him the information obtained through the angelic visitations as well as through the prophecies of Simeon and Anna, spoken when the first trip was made to Jerusalem 40 days after Jesus' birth.Luke 2:22-24

There is nothing to indicate that Jesus had or exercised any miraculous powers during his childhood years, as the fanciful stories recorded in certain apocryphal works, such as the so-called Gospel of Thomas, pretend.

The changing of water to wine at Cana, performed during his ministry after he was 30 yrs old, was "the beginning of his signs." (Joh 2:1-11) Likewise, while among the family in Nazareth, Jesus evidently did not make a showy display of his wisdom and superiority as a perfect human, as is perhaps indicated by the fact that his half brothers did not exercise faith in him during his ministry as a human, as well as by the disbelief most of the population of Nazareth showed toward him.-Joh 7:1-5; Mr 6:1, 4-6.

As a child he helped out Joseph, the real father as a carpenter, apparentley, he was really good at it to. Is that ok for your answer?

Though this may be commonly believed, it is also said that Joseph wasn't a carpenter, and was in fact a builder, which lead to the conclusion that Jesus was from a middle-class background. This also meant that Jesus was well educated and highly intelligent.

plotting the greatest scheme of all time

---------------------------

We don't know. He probably helped his father, who was a carpenter. He did not begin his public ministry until he was about thirty. There is a story of the twelve-year-old Jesus preaching to the scholars at the Temple, but that is probably just a story.

---------------------------

The childhood of Jesus isn't chronicled at all helpfully in the New Testament. His conception, his birth and its surrounding circumstances are described in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, and his flight with his family to Egypt to escape the mass killing of infants by a paranoid King Herod is documented in Matthew.

His visit later, at age twelve (now back home in Israel), to the Temple in Jerusalem is described in Luke.

The only other references to the childhood of Jesus occur in the controversial New Testament apocrypha; you can believe whatever any particular branch of the Christian church has to say on these histories, or simply disregard the whole lot.

One might surmise that since Jesus' father (or foster-father, or adoptive father) Joseph was an artisan, commonly assumed to work mainly as a carpenter, though he could just as easily have been a metalworker or stonemason, or all three, the boy - apart from normal childhood pursuits - would have spent much of his time learning his father's (Joseph's) trade, as would have been the case with any boy-child of his time and circumstances.

---------------------------

Some would argue that since Jesus descended from the royal House of David (see Jesus' genealogy in Matthew 1:17) from which a messiah was prophesied to emerge from, he had an almost royal upbringing. At the very least, descendants of David were watched closely, with the community expecting great things from each family member.

The gospels, however, point to a different community reaction. In Matthew 13:55, locals seem dumbfounded at Jesus' authoritative teachings, "Is this not the carpenter's son?" On this, the reader can assume that Jesus' upbringing was unremarkable.

The Bible tells us very little about Jesus as a young boy. At the age of twelve he was separated from family on a trip to Jerusalem. They found Him after three days in the temple teaching. No doubt He was wise beyond His years, and we know He led a completely sinless life so He wasn't a juvenille delinquent

Of the first years of Jesus' life nothing is known except that "the young child continued growing and getting strong, being filled with wisdom, and God's favor continued upon him." (Luke 2:40)
