The things kids say...

Our 6 year old still says aminals instead of animals - it's just too cute to correct...

In phonics, one of the exercises is to say words without the leading sounds. Yesterday he asked my wife to say "Grass". Then he asked her to say it without the "gr" sound...

One of our Scooby Doo video games has a level called "Little Shop of Horrors". Our 4 year old calls it "Little Shop of Whores"...

GO!

When my oldest was little he would love to go to Costco and get "examples"

The Blue Angels would fly in "information"

His favorite ice cream store was "Haagen Dawgs"

I was working with a kindergartner on the /k/ sound, and one of the activities had him saying "Kippy's car", Kippy's can", Kippy's comb" etc. One of the words was "cot", which is not real familiar to little ones anyway, plus he was sticking /k/ sounds everywhere (we call that overgeneralization). He gets to "cot" and in the loudest voice possible says "Kippy's c**k".

Of course his Mom was sitting outside my office waiting for him and I heard her just burst into gales of laughter.

One of my preschoolers couldn't remember if the picture I drew for him was spaghetti or noodles, so he came up with Spanoonos, which I think is hysterical. It stuck. Had another one who couldn't remember if I had drawn him a boat or a ship, it came out sh*t.

I hear a lot of good ones as a speech therapist. I keep saying I need to write them all down, but I never have the time. I'm sure more will come to me.

I dont have any kids, but my 5 y/o Godson is in this phase of making up insults that don't make that much sense. Last I heard, he got in "trouble" for calling another kid at school a "mouth breather".

Mollie's teacher was absent the other day. She said she had a SUB-SPI-TOOT!

This is an old one being that the 2-year old in question is now a freshman at Pitt! But when my niece was 2 or so, we were at the beach and she was saying her ABCs for everyone. My sister's boyfriend said 'okay, now let's hear you say them backwards." So SHE TURNED AROUND and starting saying them. She was (and still is) adorable!

When our oldest was about five, she had her heart set on getting a cat. Trouble is Mrs. is deathly allergic. We had been discussing this for days and days. One day on the couple mile drive to day care she brought it up again. Again, I explained how Mommy would not be able to breath and would get very sick. After a very long pause, from the back seat of my car came this angelic voice saying, "Daddy, if Mommy dies can I get a cat?"

When my youngest was very small I spent a lot of time telling him to behave.
One day he replied, "But I am being haive."

When I was a kid a bunch of other kids at school told me that whore meant like a scary monster, kinda like horror... So I came home and started calling my mom a whore... She wasn't real happy till she figured out that I didn't realize what it meant...

My wife cannot pronounce "Vietnamese". She always switches the 'm' and the 'n'. She's a speech therapist

A lot of folks around here to that too. Can she say Frustrated? I swear most folks say Fustrated.

I think my other favorite is "eyebrowns". Oh, and I had a kid who once said a bride got married to a broom.

My friend's kid was starting Catholic school and insisted that he had math twice in one day. He didn't realize he was going to math and mass.

that's one of the funniest things i've heard. Did he think the priest was reading from the gospel of arithmatic?

Along the same lines...when we were little.....our family was getting ready to go on a trip to visit friends. My 'lil sis (about 4 at the time) asked where we were going.....Mom says to Seattle. Sis pauses for a moment and says....Mom? Who's Attle?

My 'keet is too young to have any stories like this yet (give us a few years), but I have a friend who has a 7-year-old and a 4-year-old and his stories are always cracking us up.

Example: Several years ago when the oldest son was about 4 or 5, my friend was driving somewhere with him. He got cut off in traffic or something like that and muttered under his breath that the other driver was a moron. A few minutes later, his son asks, "What was that Mormon doing, Daddy?"
