Amusing mishearings of children

[nevernotstruggling]

Dd1 thinks the device in a petrol car is called a Cat Litter Converter.

Indulge me with more please I'm tired of covid gloom!

@Flamingolingo

My 6 year old sings a line in Boom shake the room as ‘how do we know? Because the crabs went woah!’

Brilliant. Had me proper loling!

Dd made constant demands to hear 'What becomes a star' on Spotify. I tried A star is born, Counting stars, when the stars come out, a sky full of stars, twinkle twinkle little star. She wanted Gangnam Style Apparently 'Oppan Gangnam style' sounds like 'What becomes a star' 🤦‍♀️

DS told his nursery teacher that he liked going swimming at the Pleasure Centre

Mine wanted chacklicks when her licks were chacked - chapstick, lips chapped. We still say chacklicks all these years later.

@LostInTheColonies my DD calls it glu-tac as well! As she's 3 I assumed she'd grow out of it but maybe not!

She calls McDonalds Old McDonalds.

She used to call her elbow her Elmo but sadly she's stopped that one.

Ds was learning about organisms in science she announced over dinner that she'd 'enjoyed learning about orgasams'. My eldest dc was hysterical and fell off the chair. An eventful meal it was.

'Mummy, Brain Lady is such a weird name'
'Erm DD, that would be Wayne Brady!'

The flashing villagers I am crying laughing that's amazing!!!

And the kid running around by the pond going fack fack fack

Our father, you are in heaven, hello is your name. My son when he was 4.

Spaghetti is forgetti here
Breakfixt for breakfast

My DS is 4.5 but still thinks Farmer Christmas brings the presents

DD from about 3-5 years always thought the prickles in the fields or on the walls she used to walk along were all Pringles 😂 couldn't bear to correct her x

Eldest daughter (When age 3) thought squirrels were foxes. But couldn’t pronounce fox. Used to run around screaming fuck at trees

Youngest (2) calls Coco Pops ‘coco cocks’

Ds was a big fan of Ghostbusters when he was 4 or 5 and used to constantly sing “I ain’t afraid of no goats!”

Elbow = Rainbow
And my favourite at the moment is "be carrot mummy" for be quiet.
She's 2 and a half so expecting a few more to emerge

My DD thinks the road opposite our house is the cuddly sack.

My 4yr old loves to eat 'button-up squash'.
This is now what it shall be called in our house forevermore.

Song : just got paid
Lyrics : We go in when we go out, I just got paid
I just got paid

My children’s lyrics : wiggle in and wiggle out ....
🤣

"Daddy, where's your hat? You haven't got your hat on" (driving over the bridge from Brooklyn to Manhattan).

"Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, Blessed art thou swimming and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus."

One was my kid, one a friend's. I'm still laughing, years later.

My DD calls her elbow here Oboe 🤣

DS1 used to call popcorn Cockporn
He currently calls Doritos "to-eat-o's"

DD (3) confuses “woman” and “human” with Moomin. She now regularly tells us that she’s an independent Moomin.

@Flamingolingo

My 6 year old sings a line in Boom shake the room as ‘how do we know? Because the crabs went woah!’

That just conjures up images of a group of crabs at rave. Fantastic.

Teaching a lesson to my Year 3 class the other day about nutrients. One boy put up his hand to very earnestly ask me about exaggerated and I exaggerated fats....
