aucun ne and aucun d'etre ne

Hi I don't understand why "Tous les enfants partent mais aucun ne prend le train"  is correct but 

:Tous les enfants partent mais aucun d’entre eux ne prend le train" is not.   

THE LESSON SAYS: We can also express none of them using aucun d'entre eux ne ... / aucune d'entre elles ne ..., I understand "aucun d’entre eux/elles" is used with people and les enfants are people. Thanks.

Hi Laura,

The test question I have found differs slightly from the one you are quoting but I think that your answer should be accepted so best use your correction board and the report it feature as I have no access to it from this forum

Bonne Continuation !
