Was having a chat with my minimally verbal 4yo DS before bed, abut ear wax. I said to him he has ear wax to stop bugs from getting inside his ears. He responded, in his own version of words, that he doesn't need ear wax, because if a bug goes in his ear he would just shoot himself in the ear to kill the bug 🫠 he was entirely confused as to why I found this so funny lol

Now I need to know what other funny / silly things kids come out with, because that did tickle me haha

Not so much at the time(!) but while in the swimming pool changing rooms ahead of her lesson, a 4yo DD1 looked thoughtfully at and prodded her nipples and then said ‘Mummy, why are my nipples up here but yours are all the way down there gesturing?’

I saw the hastily hidden smirks on faces of the other mums! I resulted the urge to say that it was all her fault as before she arrived they were extremely pert!

Omg stop I would have been mortified 🫣😂 hahaha well at least you kept your cool, I probably would've responded "because I birthed you"

My daughter was in a water nappy advert when she was about 2, it came up on my Facebook memories one day when she was 5 and my son was 7. I said 'oh look, do you remember when you were a model?' She laughed and said it was fun being a model. My son then said to her 'WAS a model, now you're just a washed-up old hag' 😂😂😂😂

Omg brutal from your son hahaha! A washed up old hag at the age of 5, I can only imagine what I am 😭

My then three year old asked me to bend down so she could check my hair after I said I had a song stuck in my head :')

When my youngest son was about three we I was a conversation with lots of other family about jobs, my mum asked what DS would like to be when he’s older, he just shrugged and said ‘king’ it was just great comedy timing!

not my DC but my friends DC goes to a church school and on the way to school she asked her mum ‘is Jesus my really daddy’

My child explaining that daddy can't drive at age 3 (dad has epilepsy)
If daddy drive he would hit a tree, start driving again, hit another tree, start driving hit another tree and then have a big crash (mainly to people who don't know daddy in front of him) 😂🤣😊

Many years ago, aged around 8, my second son was blowing up a "balloon" from a stash he'd found hidden in my sister's wardrobe. 😉 We were upstairs on a double decker bus at the time and his antics were attracting some embarrassing attention (as I was trying to get the balloon off of him, though he was reluctant to part with it).
No 1 son queried if these were the balloons that stopped babies "swinging down a ladies' bones", which some older boys at school had been discussing (🤯). It was something very important called, "misconception" and was absolutely essential to preventing "an unwanted vagrancy".
A grandmother took her daughter out of earshot by moving to the lower deck, forthwith, presumably to protect her delicate sensibilities.

My son (then aged about 5) hated going to the hairdressers so I used to take him with me and we used to see the same lady.

He was so put out one time he said (very pretentiously) “Ohh do get on with it!” And then, when asked by the receptionist if he had enjoyed holiday club “yes!. I did yoga!”

I was absolutely horrified at the time but find it funny now and remind him of it regularly 🤣. I’ve now got an opinionated teenage bit thankfully not a pretentious one.

Well I was told no by my cousins 15 month old. He just looked at me and went "no!"

In the car going to swimming lessons, a bit rushed as DD1 took a while to get ready. D2 (6) was asking for a snack, if I had anything in the car.
Me: no you’ve already had something, we’ll have to wait until after swimming
DD2: but I’m reeeeally hungry mum, I’m so hungreeee!
Me: No its not good to eat just before swimming etc
DD2: (sadly) I’m sorry tummy
😄😄
