The authors discuss a simplified version of the muddy children puzzle (``three wise men puzzle''). Readers not familiar with the muddy children problem can learn from the paper some basic aspects of formalization of epistemic states. The authors present some necessary proof-theoretic tools and give an idea how formal unprovability results can contribute to epistemic reasoning.
