to share this funny conversation with two 3 year olds with you?

[MoveYourArmsLikeHenry]

In the pre school room of my nursery today, a small group of 3/4 yo and myself were talking about food. This gave me a good laugh I hope it can do the same for you :)

Me: what is daddy making for dinner tonight?
Child 1: marshmallows, crisps and sausages.
Me: my goodness. I dont think mummy would be too happy about that.
Child 1: I wont either. I want a biscuit and a glass of juice as well.

[Grin]

Me: what did you have for dinner last night?
Child 2: fish fingers, potato, peas and carrots.
Me: yum yum. Did you eat it all up?
Child 2: I didnt eat the carrots.
Me: oh dear, but carrots help you see in the dark.
Child2: I can just use my torch to see in the dark.

Cant argue with that logic

That reminded me of when I was 3 and my mum was in hospital having my sister. My dad asked what I wanted for tea and I asked for dolly mixtures and chips .... So dolly mixtures and chips he served!

At the risk of being outed my daughters name is Charity. When she was about 3 she was being cute and I said affectionately "where did I get you from?"

Her answer, quick as a flash: "the charity shop silly!"

I shall never ever forget that one!

I often refer to ds as Captain Literal.

One of my favourites:

Me: did you do painting today? That's nice. What did you paint?
Ds: the paper...

When I worked in a nursery, I was doing some number work with a group of 3 year olds, one little girl was counting to 10 so I asked her if she could count backwards and she proceeded to walk backwards across the room counting from 1-10 well I did ask! Bless em

My DD, 2.10, refers to popcorn....as cocporn.

And she talks about it a lot as she went to the cinema for the first time last week...

These are adorable! I'm really looking forward to mine being this age.

I asked my dd1 when she was 18 months:

me: oh dd1! have you had a poo?
dd1: poo three four five!

I had to both hold my nose and applaud her rhyming and counting lol

DD heard someone on telly say 'shotgun' when bagsying the front seat of the car - she is 8 and desperate to go in the front seat like an adult at the moment - so when we were getting ready to go out the other week she decided to give it a go.

Only she got it a bit wrong and shouted "Gutshot!"

:o

A couple of years ago when a young relative was three I was truly put in my place! I was visiting my nan and she was round, It was spring so I was wearing shorts over tights IYSWIM:

Child: stupidlybroody, why don't you wear tights OVER your shorts?
Me: well that would look very silly!
Child:but you look very silly anyway.

Told! I have to say, I've never felt as confident in that style since

Conversation with my 3.3 yr old DD

me: do you like my dress DD?
DD: No
me: Why?
DD: Try something that fits you...

DDs school target is to write her name including surname. She drew a picture last week and I suggested she could write her name on it. She replied 'have you forgotten how to write it then Mummy?'

Updating my ahem "topiary" in the bathroom when 2yr old wanders in and says, " ah, you've got a beard mummy. You've got a beard on your willy"

these have made me giggle!
my ds5 also feels very sorry for me not having a willy.
when he was in reception,, his teacher called myself and another mother in for a word, as ds and his female friend had been found in the cloakroom showing each other their bits. ds announced, mummy, guess what? xx has got a willy too!!!

dd1 has trouble saying fish....she says shit instead. mortifying in the supermarket when she asks if I've remembered the shit fingers and can she have shit in a bag for tea

she is 3

shitfingers and shit in a bag. I have tears in my eyes, DD (2) wants to know what I am laughing at.

Loving the "try something that fits you" too.

I know I have some as I have been in stitches with mine but I can't remember them now.

Love these!
On the way to preschool this morning ds1 saw some wet mushy dead grass and said loudly "urgh yellow poo! My poo is brown. Daddy eats big food to make big giant poos. Mummy you don't have a bum so you can't poo"
I responded that I was quite sure I did have a bum, his response was "oh yes! yes you do mummy, you have a very squashy bum but you don't have a willy."

My ds (5) who was outraged one day shortly after starting Reception 'But Mummy, WHY do the teachers make US do all the writing? They just stand and point at the whiteboard. Don't they know how to write?

Ds (3)is going through a boys have a willy stage 'I have a willy, grandad has a willy, uncle xxx has a willy, Daddy has a willy....Mummy doesn't have a willy, she has a dirty bum' (refering to the hair'

Ooh have remembered one that I have always been too ashamed to share in real life.

Having a bath with my then 20 month old. She is already in and as I lower myself in opposite, she points at my lady garden and yells' Ra Ra'. Her fave prog at the time was Ra Ra The Noisy Lion...

My favourite was when DSD for four.

'How much did I cost when I was born?'

Me: 6.5.

DSD :o!! Toby cost much more than me, he was 8.5!!

That and calling tadpoles 'tadpolbes'

Cute.

When my friends little boy was 3, he was fascinated that his baby sister didn't have a willy. Luckily for him, his mum, having been to an Anne summers party, had a novelty penis. DS finds the penis, comes running out when we were having coffee 'mummy mummy! I've found DDs willy!!'

someone I know when they were little, being babysat by their granddad who said, "come on, off to bed now or I'll get the sack "....and off to bed they went as good as gold.

next morning her mum said "I hear you went to be very nicely for granddad"

cue big round eyes "but mummy I had to - granddad said he would put me in a sack if I did not go to bed"

"My DD, 2.10, refers to popcorn....as cocporn." brilliant!

I am loving these- especially the 'fashion' advice ones
