Default Math Problem

A census taker asks a woman "How many children do you have?". She says "Three". The census taker asks "What are their ages?". She responds, "The product of their ages is 36 and the sum of their ages is the house number next door." The census taker walks next door, reads the house number, appears puzzled, and returns to the woman, asking: "Is there something you forgot to tell me?" The woman responds: "Yes, the oldest child is in the park."

How old is each child?
