Things that are now forever named after something your kid said

[Echobelly]

In our household, I make a rice dish sometimes that is named after my son's reaction to it when he was about 3. Knowing he liked rice and sweetcorn, I presented him with this dish that includes both, only for his little face to crumple and him to give an anguished cry of 'MUMMY, WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO IT?!'

So of course, it has ever since been known as 'Mummy why did you do that to it?!' (I've even crossed out the name in the recipe book and written it there). DS is now 11 and actually likes MWDYDTTI these days, although he still leaves the green peppers.

Is there anything that your household now refers to by something memorable one of the kids has said?

We call fried eggs 'flat eggs'. My two year old wanted eggs for breakfast and didn't want boiled or scrambled eggs, he used cute hand gestures showing how to flatten an uncooked egg, he is 12 now and it is still the same.

@Plannersareus we have flat eggs here too! And also when having a egg sandwich my son will ask for an “egg egg sandwich” because it specifically has to have two eggs.

We call an umbrella a hambrella because that's what DD used to call it as a toddler.

Our local newsagents has now changed to a Spar but is still known by the family as "the frog shop". So named by toddler DC as we bought chocolate frogs, Freddos, from it. Size toddlers now 23 and 25 years old!

A pushchair will always be a pushtram thanks to DD

We have Radigators not radiators.
We also have square words instead of swear words. All thaks to DD!

Sausagey eggy balls... Quorn picnic eggs

Undies in our house are called nudies after my little one couldn't say it properly and it stuck

Crips (crisps)
Flu Flus (flowers)
and not an object but ‘Look likes’ ( Looks like)
They are sweaty smelly teens now and typing this makes me want to cry!

Oh and ‘pot arms’. Ds2 was insistent he wanted to wear them one day. We were mystified. Turns out it meant a t shirt - ie ‘part arms’ 🤣

When DDs make a home made frappe with espresso, crushed ice and vegan ice cream it’s now always known as a Covfefe - because they assumed that was what Trump must have meant when he tweeted it 😂

Living Room: now the Limb Room
Tv Remote: TB Demote
Breakfast: Brektass
Toast and Marmite: Tosmarmite
Television: Televelision
Ok so we do t use these words all the time (they're now 14 and 12) but we sometimes do!
Nb our 14 year old still says Subramine instead of submarine, despite reminders!

Oh yes and the barber shop has always been called the Haircut House (though we're careful not to say it in front of their friends!!)

Actually I think you’ll find it’s actually called an underbrella

Ahh my 2 both said cucumber really cute. One said cupiner and the other said cuumba. Oh and peacock was definitely "big c**k". Very hard (excuse the pun!) not to laugh when he said that.!

A trampoline is always called a jumpoline.
Milk is cow juice.
Chocolate is always tockalot.
Knickers are butt bras 🤷‍♀️ my child is crazy but funny.

Pins and needles is now forever known as pickle needles in our house 🤣

Also the ‘Utility’ room was clearly too difficult to grasp and has forever remained the Toolittley room 😂

Splatty eggs (fried eggs)
Stippy tape (sticky tape)
Mindle (windmill)

Thanks to DS...

Harshmallows = Marshmallows

Just last week, my husband lit the chiminea and said "shall we do some toasted Harshmallows?

😄 Brilliant

Dobbys- strawberries
coffee tea - trip to a coffee shop

if cats go to a cattery than dogs (obv!) go to the doggery!

We also have a ‘high pad’ not an iPad.

I still call windscreen wipers swish swaffers from when ds was little

He's 30 now 😂

We have splat eggs instead of fried eggs and boiling eggs instead of boiled. If any DIY is going on, something will need hammening 🔨

Cop porn

It's a snack you eat at the cinema......!
