The things little kids say...

A friend sent me this email...

From the diary of a Pre-School Teacher My five-year old students are learning to read. Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,
"Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!" I took a deep breath, then asked..."What did you call it?" "It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on the picture!" And so it does...

" A f r i c a n Elephant " Hooked on phonics! Ain't it wonderful? Now that's funny, I don't care who you are..


Anyway, it brought to mind one of Rachel's mispronunciations. Picture yourself walking through Target with your toddler in the shopping cart, and you approach the Easter section. Child spies the Easter baskets, gets excited, and starts pointing and hollering at the top of her lungs, "Look MaMa, 'fag-GITS'. Quite a few odd looks in your direction, so you loudly say, 'yes dear MaMa sees the BASKETS.' *sigh*...kinda funny, but I'll be glad when she can pronounce 'baskets' the correct way!

Anybody else have a 'kids say' funny?

We used to have a Tahoe SUV and my then 3-yr.-old called it a Taco. She says funny things like that all the time, but I can't think of any more right now.

yes my son loved potato chips only we did not buy them a whole lot. So one day we were in the store and my son was screaming "Mommy look chips" only it sounds like "Mommy look sh*t!!" Soooo many people were looking at us!!

Ohhh and then we were going to Busch Gardens one day on a bus (you could ride for free from Sea World if you had a gold pass at the time) so we were on the bus and this same boy is looking out the window and he screams at the top of his lungs "Look mommy; HOOTERS!!!" I have absolutely no idea how he knows about the restaurant because we have never taken him there. I dont even go there. He knew though. And everyone on the bus was cracking up.

Oh I thought of another...when I was little we had a dog name Bitzy. I could not say Bitzy. I would come out saying here Bitchy come here Bitchy. We changed her name to Mitzy

Hahaha! These are hilarious!

Amelia is 6, and she still cannot say discs, like:

Me: Put those discs back in the box so they don't get scratched
Amelia: I DID put the dicks back in the box

Benjamin used to say cocks for clocks.
