During my 17 years as a public school speech pathologist, I've heard a lot of funny things come out of the mouths of babes. Here are some of my favorites:
Kid: (after trying unsuccessfully to say spaghetti) I just can't say it. It's constipated.
Me: I think you mean complicated.
Me: (while reading a prompt to a student during a math state assessment) How many inches are in a foot?
Kid: (hikes foot up on knee, looks at bottom of shoe, and starts counting) 20?
Me: (to a kid who is working on making his "s" sound) Ok, your next word is sit. Use it in a sentence and say the sentence three times.
Kid: Shit on the couch. Shit on the couch. Shit on the couch.
Me: Alrighty then.
Kid: Mrs. B, the reason I can't say my "s" right is because I'm part snake and snakes stick out their tongues when they talk.
Me: Snakes don't talk. Try again.
Kid: Mrs. B, ah you shoowah I'm the one with the awah pwoblem, because I think I sound good. Maybe you have the awah pwoblem and you just don't know it.
Me: Trust me, I'm sure.
Me: What fell off of the bird? (while showing kid a picture of a feather and a bird)
Kid: A leaf.
Me: Leaves fall off trees, not birds.
Kid: Are you sure?
Me: Because you're chilly?
Kid: No, so the bulls won't charge me.
I hope you found some of these as entertaining as I did! What's something funny you've heard a kid say? Feel free to share. As always, thanks for stopping by!

Hahaha funny things kids say never fail to put a smile on my face! Thanks for that. :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha, kids say the best things. I especially love the leaves falling off birds :-D
ReplyDeleteWhen my brother was little he used to say gravy-yard instead of graveyard. I always imagined all the dead people swimming in gravy :-D
Those are cute and funny you really never know what is going to come out of a kids mouth
ReplyDeleteUgh. I hear things every day. So many that I stopped keeping track lol.
ReplyDeleteLately, my conversations about Star Wars with one of my little friends have kept me entertained.
haha These are great. I love hearing all the crazy things my niece and nephew say (though really, mostly my niece - she's a riot).

Ha! I had one kid asked me “do you know why I wear my jacket zipped up?” When I said no he replied “it is mating season.” I just walked away.
ReplyDeleteLMAO! Where do they get this stuff?
