I'm currently toilet training my toddlers... One of the girls needed to go to the toilet and was having trouble pulling down her pants...she looked up at me and said:

"can you help me please I have a wedgie in my bottom"

All I could do was laugh...even though I ended having a coughing fit due to my flu...LoL...

When I did work placement at a prescool one little boy while I was playing with him outside asked me:
Boy:"Have you met Leon?"
Me: "No not yet" (assuming it was another child at the centre)
Boy: "He is in my Mummy's tummy" He replied

It was so funny as he asked if I had met him yet, later that afternoon his Mum arrived and the boy grabbed my hand and took me over to his Mum: "This is Leon" He said pointing to his Mums pregnant tummy!

It was very cute:)

Just wanted to add another funny discussion that happened in my room the other day. I asked one of the little girls in my room if she wanted to finish coloring her dinosaur from this morning. To which she replied "Yes but I have to stand up because I have a poo in my nappy and it will get squashed if I sit on it".i was so surprised with her response and how she articulated it,it was very funny!!

One of my toddlers was talking about his baby sister and said "she has milk out of mummies boobies" another little girl laughed and said "boobies" so I (being silly) said "do you have boobies" and she said "Yes, in my pants" HAHA that just totally cracked me up...she was so deadly serious about it too

I was having a full on day last week & when I sat down with the kids at mat time, i must have let out a loud sigh. One of the boys told me I sounded just like Darth Vader - & do you know - i think he was probably right. Really brightened up my day & made me realise nothing gets past them....

Jack aged 5y and Jessie aged 4y playing with the Zoo and African animals.
The subject turned to how the animals were going to keep in touch with each other once they left the Zoo.

Jessie: How will they call each other?
Jack: They can call them.
Jessie: How??
Jack: wellllll they can Skype can’t they??

It was so hard to keep a straight face!!

Tom replied "Of course Scarlett I can help you what do you wan me to do "
Scarlett "Please open the Fridge for me"
"Sure Scarlett!"

I'm currently in the process of toilet training Queen S (2y.o)

Today I say ok it's time to go to the toilet....Queen S is on her phone talking to someone she says "not now Jo, later I am on the phone...sorry!" I say

"thats ok, please tell your friend that it's time for you to go as it toilet time."

QS: "sorry, have to go Jo says, yep yep yep ha ha ha see you soon!"

I thank Queen S for finishing up her phone call for me and that we will call them back when we have washed our hands.

Queen S starts heading in to the toilet with the phone, I ask can I hold it for her because we don't want to take her phone into the toilet.

QS: "hang on jo it's ringing" (answers phone) in an annoyed tone "ugh mum i am busy! need to do poo, talk to jo bye!" (rolls her eyes and hands me phone!) hahahahaha haven't laughed so hard in forever! this little one is a real classic!

Today one of the little girls in my room was upset when her grandpa dropped her off... I gave her a cuddle and brought her into the office with me while I was doing some come computer work.. I gave her a puzzle to do and we began talking.

Me: so mummy told me you moved into a new room with a big bed
Girl: yes, my dear that's right my dear, getting ready for the baby dear!

Lol! I definitely wasn't expecting that from her! I began laughing and then she began laughing:

Girl: I know I'm funny dear!

Spoke to her grandad this afternoon and he blushed saying that he often calls her "my dear"..

Very sweet!!

That is so cute L.A !

I was sitting next to the home corner and these three girls ( all 3 years old ) were playing in the toy kitchen . One of them was wearing a mattress protector as an apron . Two of the other girls started arguing about who is a big girl . The girl with the apron walked up to them and said " You are both big girls , calm down ! " it was just so funny to see her facial expressions too and she was so serious .

Children are so funny sometimes! Lol...

Sometimes, its not children who make me laugh, I got something that one of my colleagues at work said to me and this made me laugh!

Colleague: I'm going to miss you when you go
Me: you'll be alright, we'll keep in touch
Colleague: I love to come visit you, my friend and I are planning a trip to Mexico, is India anywhere near Mexico?

I started laughing so much! :lol:

I was playing in the sandpit the other day with a few of the kinder children.. This 5 year old girl was cooking all sorts of goodies, ready to sell in her shop. I asked her if I could buy one of her cakes and I asked how much it was. "It's $20.." She told me. I then handed over my 'money' and she asked me if my card was 'pin or sign!' Mum or Dad must shop often with a credit card!

Thursday last week I introduced an ice experience with my group (3-5 year olds)
I posed the question "Where does ice come from?"

Mr 3 1/2 with great conviction and assurity stated that "ice comes from Penguin World"

All this time I thought it was from the freezer. I was sooo wrong!! :giggle:

Kids are hilarious
Was sitting on the verandah outside our class playing with the kids, one little girl put a small dinosaur up to my face and the conversation was as follows

Z: dinosaur is going to eat you up
Me: No No please don't eat me
Z: he is going to do damage to you
Me: no don't eat me I won't taste very good
Z: Yes you will, you are golden
Me: I am golden?
Z: (touches my face with her hand) yes your skin is golden and dark like honey so you must taste good

Was pretty funny and touching at the same time. I was blown away by this little girls thought process. Was nice to be compared to honey too :)
