to not correct my toddler's hilarious mispronunciations?

[Celledora]

Will it scar him for life if I let him find out for himself that he it is, in fact, 'bread sticks' he loves, not "big d*cks'?!

DS1: Oh my Donno = Old McDonald (I think he got it confused with “oh my goodness”). He’s 4.5 and still says it because I haven’t pointed out the mistake

DS2 - loves shapes.
Sphere: FEAR!
Parallelogram: lalaYAyogam
Oval: OH-oh-oh - this one was so cute and his little earnest face as he would hold up the oval shape and say it! He’s just turned 3 now and has realised it’s only got two syllables. It’s currently an “OH-vo”

A conversation my daughter and I had on the way home from preschool:
Her: Mama, do you like snucks?
Me (no idea what a snuck is): Oh yes, I love snucks.
Her: I don't like snucks. They're so stinky.
It was at this point I realized we were talking about skunks.

16 Of The Best Toddler Mispronunciations From Cucumbumber to Pissmas

Another one here who's then toddler couldn't pronounce the r in blackcurrant

My daughter used to call nostrils, 'nostriches', her dressing gown was a 'dressginown' and her slippers were 'slipperlies' She's 7 now and I do miss her toddler language

Ahhh we had the stick/dick thing... I miss those days...

I think my eldest was best- she was playing with her toys, chatting away to them and obviously one had misbehaved because all I heard was ‘OH CHEESE MOUSE CHRIST, DONT DO THAT!’

(Apparently I must say Jesus Christ more than I realise )

Coats are goats
Boots are boats
Pasta is passa
Cook is cock
Potatoes is tatoes which I love.

At christmas time my DS heard someone say "bah humbug" and asked "mummy, what does bum hambag mean?"

So forever on it will be bum hambag

Eldest once started shouting out "I WANT RAPE I WANT RAPE". Clear as day while we were at a petting zoo. We actually had no idea what he was trying to say for weeks but every so often he'd start demanding "RAPE RAPE RAPE" usually in the supermarket or some other public place. Finally realised he was after grapes.

when a toddler my daughter used to call cocker spaniels cockle spaniels which has stuck in our family!
apparently i used to call escalators esculuckerlators

DS is learning blending at nursery and a few weeks ago we just had a run of c-u-n-t, cunt. No idea where it got it from and I had to let nursery know he might spurt it out at any moment.

DD who is now 9yo just 'loves' us reminding her of her two favourite wrong words when she was a toddler....
Bouncyline = trampoline
Rainbrella = umbrella

DD used to say "Allah" for owl. Which was fine until she shouted it very loudly in church.

The funniest thing was when we were in the car and she forgot her words. "Mummy, thing not under my bottom, no!" It took a long time to work out that she was asking me to close the sunroof.

Frozen (the film) will forever be Melago (Let It Go) in our house. DS even been in a show of it and still calls it that. I imagine him talking to his wife in 30 years time about childhood films and her not having a clue until he sings the song...then it will suddenly dawn on him.

Also The Bear Necessities “forget about your worries and your stripes”

I told my daughter the other day we needed kitchen roll and she went round looking for chicken roll. And when we went to collect a parcel she was convinced we were getting a castle. She was sorely disappointed.

My DD uses “cumbumber” (pronounced cyoombumber) which is so adorable I hope she never stops. Also came out with “hobubble” instead of horrible last night which cracked me up

My 13 year old has SN and used to have all sorts of code words for things. 'bowl-eat' for food. 'pink and go wee!' for slide. 'chicken with handle' for chicken satay stick

Now she's older, her vocabulary has improved, but she still gets muddled for e.g. today she hurt her cousin accidentally, and was tearfully telling me that they'd said he "could be paranoid" (paralysed). I have to hold back the smile and nod seriously as I offer the correct word tentatively.

She also says things with slight mispronunciations that sound very rude, and as I'm about to tell her off, her sisters say "no, Mum, she said X!"

Grangrand - Grandad (although everybody now uses grangrand!)

Billy HairMan - Billy Bear Man (worst was when she asked the lady at the counter for some "Billy Hair Man" and it was a lady with hair growth problem... Had to say yes 5 pieces of Billy Bear ham please. She looked mortified)

DD

• calls magpies 'mudpies'

• calls bananas 'BE-nanas'

• calls pyjamas 'BE-jamas'

And

• calls jacket potato 'Be-jacket Be-tato'

Shes 6 😆

Driving past a petrol station my son asked what the writing said. I told him it said ‘Texico, because it’s the Texico garage’...

Long story short: it is now, and forever shall be, the ‘Testicle garage’

We had flums instead of plums, broke my heart when her big sister made her enunciate

Me and his older by 5 years DB used to fall about laughing at my youngest son’s variations on words. “mum! mum! I’ve got an eye splash in my eye! He meant eyelash. Nannyvan for caravan etc.

My dd is 19 months and has learned to talk really fast, she has started to stutter a bit which with some googling appears normal when they learn to speak a little bit too quickly.

So now she says things like 'muh-muh-mickey moush' 'buh-buh-buh-ball' 'sa-sa-seal!' (Cereal)

It's so cute but hopefully she will grow out of it !

Oh! And if she wants you to sing this little piggie she holds her foot out to you and says 'muh-muh-market!'

"taypoes" for potatoes. The mini trampoline started off as a "bdup-bdup" but is now a "bouncy thing"

Ankle arms instead of wrists.
Peas and noodles instead of pins and needles.
