Five. He had six children (Demeter,Hera,Hestia, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades) but his wife Rhea, couldn't bare to give up all his children. So, she gave Cronus a rock in a blanket, instead of Zeus. And Cronus swallowed that instead. Than she hid Zeus among nymphs and satyrs, and asked mother Gaea to keep him safe. Then when Zeus grew older he tricked his father into barfing his brothers and sisters up. Than there was a war of the gods against the titans, and the gods won.
