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 :)

Hi everyone This is my first post and what a great subject to start with. I guess working with children there is always a "what made me laugh" moment every day, but every now and then there is one that stands out. Im a room leader in a 2.5-3.7 room and the children have been interested in road safety. Wearing our seat belt has been a great discussion topic so the other day when I asked "what do we wear in the car that keeps us safe", one little boy yelled out " our dressing gown". :D

Yes that made my day!

And hopefully many more to come

Mom: "She’s a baby. All she does is sleep, eat, poop."
Little Boy: "Mommmm, that’s disgusting! Why does she eat poop?"

One of our room kids came up to me holding his head and said, “I have a headache. It’s a bad one. It’s pissin’ me off.” I had to turn my head real quick and laugh. He's 4. :)

Want to reopen this topic because we all need to smile and laugh at times...

I was putting Miss 3 to bed last night and as she was getting tucked in and this is what happened:

Me: It's late it's time to go to sleep
Maya: I want more milk
Me: You've been chit chatting for 20 minutes and now you want more milk!
Maya: Well I have my rights sir and I'm telling I'm going to have more and more and more milk because that's what I do!

How can I argue with that!! :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: Mission success, Maya got her cup of milk and non stop laughing from me!

Twinkle Twinkle little star,
You should know what you are,

And once you know what you are,
Mental hospital is not so far.

Miss 3 turns on her yellow mobile and see the welcome screen.

Miss 3: What does it say?
Me: It says "Nokia"
Miss 3 starts knocking on the screen and I start laughing...
Miss 3: Looks up at me with a serious face and says "You said knock here".

:giggle: Oh how innocent the littles ones are!
