AnonyMouse_19762 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 (edited) Lovely afternoon at pre-school today, we only have our 'big ones' on a Tuesday! So there I am with a roll of masking tape in hand preparing boxes for our painting activity tomorrow when 3 little boys come over and ask what I'm doing. So..........I said ......well actually I am going to pull off lots of this tape and tape you three together!!! This was greeted with shrieks of laughter and they all ran away! Well .... one of them went under a table and banged his poor little ear ... his laughter obviously very quickly turned to tears - I was able to comfort him quickly and easily - thank goodness, but I really did feel awful. Filled in the accident report and mum signed and I confessed that it was all my fault, what lovely mums I have she said ........"but that's one of the reasons they all love you so much because you are so much fun"! How sweet of her - I still feel pretty bad though - it was hardly the most sensible thing to have done!

AnonyMouse_13453 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Oh it's happened to us all! They are unpredictable little souls and that's why we love them too! So, he won't do that again, but you probably will - albeit not in quite the same way. He'll have learnt not to run under tables and you? well probably like me you'll keep on making them squeal with delight at every opportunity!

Guest MaryEMac Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Oh Sunnyday, you sound just like me. I sometimes go to playgroup with a tickle monster in my pocket and invariably the children run screaming away and occasionally there are bumps and tears. So I have to ground the tickle monster for a little while. . The children always ask where he is and often look in my pocket for him. I know it is awful when you have to own up to mum that it was your fault. The children usually tell mum that they had fun with the tickle monster.

Guest Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I had an incident too today. I dropped a playdoh box on someone's head. Poor little thing was being really helpful (for a change!) too and helping to tidy toys into the cupboard! I didn't really hurt him but he is one of those who can wail for England. He eventually forgave me but it was the first thing out of his mouth when mum walked in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_13453 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Haha - the first thing out of one of mine this evening on pickup was "'H' weed on the carpet - goodness, she could wee for England!" Mum's face was a picture! (as was 'H's mum's who was behind) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_64 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Perhaps next time you need to tape bubble wrap on them and then chase them round the room with the masking tape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 We have a theme going here I caused a black eye last week. My little terror was being really good and cleaning the paint off the door he's decorated for us. Unfortuantley I didn't know he was there and opened the door and got soaked because he had thrown the water at the door, right at that moment to clean it off. He was so shocked to see me there , he threw the empty bucket in the air and yep hit his friend in the face and he now has a shiner. I was so apologetic to the mum ..... it really wasn't my terrors fault...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Oh bless. How lovely that the parents took it in exactly the right way. Sometimes that's not always the case! I've had similar things happen to me at work for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
