to ask you to cheer up mn with your ridiculous things your small

[Samcro]

people say or do?
mine are adults, but i LOVE reading about cute things small people do,

My DD (just turned 3) has started talking back to the Sesame Street game on the iPad (which is narrated by Elmo).
Game: Trace the letter with your finger!
DD: I am Elmo!
Game: Touch something that starts with your letter.
DD: Okay, I will!
Game: Touch the video camera to play a video!
DD: Sorry, I just got to get my hair back first. [as in get it out of her face]

Age 5, DS looked at DD, age 2 and said “Sheesh A, that’s far too hard for a young lady like yourself”.

He was right, but it was a surprising turn of phrase.

Ohh my ds (3) has a best friend at nursery called David (not real first name) Aitken.
Ds calls him David Chicken

Our ds who was about 5 couldn't remember what toes were called so he called them foot fingers.

When my DD had just started school she wanted to play catch with me but wanted me to bounce the ball on the floor in between us. It took a while for me to understand what she was trying to explain so when we got going how she wanted she said "That's it mum, you're cooking on gas!". Had to laugh.

Another time when she was around 3 she asked for a drink. As I walked into the kitchen she clapped her hands and said "chop chop".

To be fair hanging that’s what most people where I’m from say...

Hear/Here/Year/Ear are all pronounced the same

When my son was little he used to sing along to Macarena "oh my gorilla" thinking those were the words.

He also asked me to put his bum "on the front" because he thought it would be fun to poo standing up. When I said that would not be possible he had a massive tantrum.

Mines currently singing a song to his poo, hopefully he’ll carry on for a while to delay bum wiping duties.

When my DS was younger he called bananas bobanarnas he also still says maffis instead of massive and halleloola instead of hallelujah
My 3yr old DD says bescetti instead of spaghetti and excycled instead of excited
I love it and I wish they would always say it!

My son also told my brother that he needed to stop having a tea break as he was burning daylight. His uncle then asked him to run to the shed and get him something to which my son answered sorry mate I don't work weekends!

My DP was looking at some half grown sheep with my DS, and remarked "Those 'shams' are getting big". We all smiled.
Next I knew I was being called into school because DS had had a lesson about sheep and was furiously declaring they were 'shams'. It almost came to blows apparently!

Young nephew of mine (3) is just cuddle central. He throws his arms around me and snuggles and tells me how much he loves me. Honestly I want to cry with the loveliness. Know he’ll be hulking possibly from teenager before I know it and I will move him just the same - right now he is an absolute delight. Makes me laugh all the time.

My ds used to say try-fuffle for trifle. And when he was about 3 I offered him a biscuit and he said "I don't care if I have one" because he heard me say "don't mind if I do" before and got it wrong. So cute!

@whatnow40 ahh my dd 2.5 says chicken yogurts, I'm like you and don't correct it because it's so cute!

I'm in bed with flu and my 2yo this morning brought me a bottle of Calpol

I realised my DC2 was changing from a sweet and innocent child when out shopping one day when DC2 was about 7 yrs old................

DC2 had repeatedly asked for a snack and eventually we went into a coffee shop where DC2 chose a small tube of crisps. As DC1 was not with us I warned DC2 not to tell DC1 that we had bought a treat while out but that I would pop to another shop and get DC1 something cheaper on the way home.

When we got to the till, the cashier told us that the tubes of crisps were on offer, 2 for 1. I said to DC2 to get another tube and we'd take it home for DC1.

Once home, DC2 gave DC1 the crisps, then asked me if we could still go to the shops for another treat. I said no, that it wasn't healthy and that I also did not have any more money to waste on treats ! DC2 then chirped up that I hadn't spent any money on treats for them today, to which I said ' yes I have ! I bought you crisps in town !' DC2 says very calmly, ''No mummy, you bought DC1 crisps, my crisps were free !''

My daughter, nine, is convinced trick or treating is trickle treating. It amuses me too much to correct her.

My 2.3 year old today requested Sleeping Bunnies, then Sleeping Froggies, Sleeping Elephants, Sleeping Balloons, Sleeping Guitars, Sleeping Changing Tables and Sleeping Broccoli.

She is also utterly obsessed with her friend’s dad and will ask me questions about him unprompted several times a day - where is he? Does he like pancakes? Does he wear shoes? Does he have ears? Can he swim very very fast? Will he be in Sainsbury’s?

My GS was two, playing with toys with the CBBees on in the background, and glanced up at the telly as the presenter, at a farm, was saying "This cow..."

GS said "that's a calf, fer fucks sake" and went back to playing with toys.

I may be flamed for being impressed, but I was. He hadn't long been talking, and yet was able to disagree about something said by an adult, and correct them. For he was right, it was a calf ffs.

My ds 2 sayings he's got baby Jesus in his tummy! Don't know where he's picked this up from at all?

When DS was just learning to talk, we were out at my aunts house, for tea. Age realised that she’d left the cake in the oven and it was beginning to burn “bugger” she said and ran off to rescue it.

A few days later DS drooped ab Apple he was eating and it smashed on the floor “bugger” he said right in context. He was cursing before he could put sentences together, took a while to work that out of him!

When my 11 year old was 3 I went to pick him up from nursery and he was in the loo, I went in and he had pooed on the floor and he said, very upset, “oh no!! I’ve done a dog’s poo!”

He also used to say “race you” to old ladies with Zimmer frames 🙈

Ahh my little girl is 12 now but I still giggle at the time she said she was hot so was going to pull up her leg sleeves. She also made a sticky label for each of her clothes drawers when she was around 5, and for her drawer that she kept her tights in her sticker said ‘tits’ - I left it as it made me smile each and ever time I saw it 😂

Oh and my son (now 15) when he first started reception, on the way to school one morning saw lots of elderly folk on the way to the bus stop which was up the hill. Was coming up to Christmas and there were quite a few about. He watched them avidly and I could see the little cogs turning in his brain, I was still surprised though when he turned to me and asked if old people were zombies 😂

When my son was just starting to talk, the shops were full of Christmas cards showing foxes, which made him beside himself with joy. To him, they were "fuxes". He spent 6 weeks shouting "fuck" everywhere we went!
