Guest Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Yet another gem from my wonderful son!! We were sitting at the table eating dinner yesterday and yet again I was encouraging to use his knife and fork, telling him all about how when we go out to eat in retaurants that we have to use our knives and forks as it is good manners and the more you practice it, the easier it gets. His reply "but mum we're not posh like Auntie Patricia, so we don't need to!!" How do I answer that?? lol Quote
Guest Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 On our trip to the farm we went past a field and a child exclaimed 'is that weetabix? do they just pull it of the top?' if only it was that easy! Quote
AnonyMouse_14021 Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 Today I was looking after one of the boys from nursery, and his little sister who's 2 (and a half maybe?) And when I asked him if he wanted to go for a walk to the field across the road, his little sister says "And me, can I come?!" As if I'd leave her home alone! Bless her Quote
Guest Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 My 6 yr old on the way to school today, having noticed the flashing green indicator arrow on my dashboard........ ." If you get lost, it's ok, you just have to follow the arrows". She thinks my indicators are for my benefit and not for other drivers, bless Peggy Quote

Guest Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Two old but good I thought.. Last Christmas, children dressed up however they wanted for party - aduldts optional. I decided to get into the spirit and dressed as a Christmas fairy - as I arrived back after lunch in full regalia I was greeted with cries of appreciation from several children admiring my sparkly outfit "Mrs C you look beautiful, what are you?" "Well I'm the fairy off the top of the Christmas tre" said I beaming before a loud voice from the other side of the room piped up "For goodness sake get a grip! You're a GROWN UP!" Put me in my place good and proper Many moons ago Y1 child - very able - wrote in News book: "Last night I wanted a drink and when I went downstairs Mummy and Daddy were sunbathing in front of the fire and I had to go back to bed." Best thing was next night was Parents' Evening where they could come in and see their child's work, they made a very quick exit poor loves! Quote
Guest Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 pollyputthekettleon. Whilst in the car, son had a headache and asked for a drink, I passed him his drinks bottle, he took a mouthful then put his head down low near his knees. What are you doing? I asked. I'm trying to get the drink to my headache, he replied. bless Peggy Quote
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 I remember my husband saying to our eldest boy, 3 at the time, come on, let's go and get some fresh air, and Lawrence replying "can I carry it?" Quote
Guest Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 I made bread last week with my reception class and had bought some different spreads for the children to try out when we tasted it....I couldnt control my laughter when one little boy said "miss, can i have some more of that lemon turd please?" haha!

Guest Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 That's brilliant Dudette! Reminds me of a Harvest Festival display I was producing many years ago for the main school hall in readiness for our special assembly featuring the Bishop (C of E school) Was standing back to admire finished article when realised that the grapes were clearly labelled "A bunch of juicy craps"........was sooo tempted to leave it and see if anyone noticed!

AnonyMouse_15046 Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 I just picked up a child from school who has been to Kenilworth Castle for the day with her class. When I asked her what she had learned she said "Well nothing really because we knew it all. Mr X went there a few days ago so he'd already told us all about it." (Shall I tell Mr X what a good job he did? ) Quote
Guest Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 hello everybody, i have just joined the forum, and found this thread, which made me smile! I work in a C of E school in reception, and it was our first assembly with the local priest. I sat them all down in rows as the priest (old with a beard) sat at the front ready to start, when a little girl tapped me on the leg and innocently asked "Miss Robbins, is that Jesus?", i tried not to laugh and told her it wasn't and she demanded "well who is it then?!" hahaaa i was trying to hold the laughter in all assembly!!! x Quote
Guest Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Good one Jenbo! I learned yesterday that Sleeping Beauty is going to marry Prince Philip. (She hasn't got good taste, obviously!) Quote

AnonyMouse_6008 Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 There's a new girl coming to my 6 year old's school, and when I asjked him if he could remember her name, he said 'Um... Tiger'. When I asked his teacher, saying I would have to apologise to him if that was her name, she laughed 'No', before saying 'Oh, I see!' The new girl's name is Sophie, obviously I've exposed him to too much Tiger Who Came to Tea! Quote

AnonyMouse_13453 Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 At the village school, the Reception Teacher was telling me in the morning that it was her husband's 40th birthday and she'd had to spend the entire week 'bolstering him' as he was feeling low about it. Anyway, on the day she came in smiling, saying he was feeling happier about it. At the end of the day he came to meet her at school and a little boy ran into the classroom saying "Miss, your Dad's here for you" :( :wacko: Quote
Guest Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 A friend at work came in today with a new hair style, and a little boy said "her hair's not right!". Quote

AnonyMouse_10853 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 One of the boys at Playgroup is a keen Star Wars fan. He said, "I am the best Jedi knight ever. I am so good I can teach people to be Jedi's". I pretended to hold my light sabre and said, "Can you teach me?" He fixed me with a firm stare, put his hands on his hips and said witheringly, "Don't be silly. Only young people can be Jedi's." I felt the force drain from my aged body .. Quote
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Conversation with my 3 year old grandaughter..... Me (gazing out of the window) - "oh stupid snow, just stop now" Grandaughter - "don't say stupid, it's very rude" Me - "oh yes darling, good girl, I shouldn't have said that, but I am beginning to hate it now" Grandaughter - (very serious now) Nana don't say hate, we don't use that word in this house"! Bless her......... Quote
Guest Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Never mind the funny things children say...... the other day I was looking after a child who said she hated something, I can't remember what it was, but my response was please don't use that word, she said why and i replied because it's not a nice word I hate it when you say it. Needless to say she looked at me like i'd gone mad!!! Quote
AnonyMouse_3735 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I have a friend with naturally very tight curly hair.. one day she came in with it straightened ( her daughters had been learning to use straighteners!) On little girl asked.. ' where is your giggly hair gone.. I like it giggly ' Only took a walk in the garden to restore it to its giggly state.. Inge Quote
Guest Posted January 26, 2010 Posted January 26, 2010 My class of year ones are getting cheeky little characters, and today one of the little boys decided he would 'mix it up a bit'! After lunchtime, he came over and said 'Err, Miss, I have something to tell you its very bad news', as I leaned in to listen he says 'I was talking to the headteacher at lunchtime, she says you're fired'! Trying not to giggle, I asked if she'd given a reason, to which he replied 'you are a rubbish teacher and she doesn't like you'. I still can't decide whether those words came from the Head or not.......! Quote
AnonyMouse_1208 Posted January 26, 2010 Posted January 26, 2010 When asked why do hens sit on their eggs? One child replied 'Cos they got no chairs!' Quote

Guest Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) A little girl I childmind had a pink bike for her birthday, complete with doll carrier and drink bottle. She looked at the picture on the bottle and asked her Mum who it was. Mum replied "Barbie" My little friend thought about it for a few moments and announced "mmmm - Nona Barbie!" (my surname is Darby) I'm teased about it whenever Barbie is mentioned Nona Edited January 28, 2010 by Guest Quote
