Jumpolines and Rainberellas!

[Platesmasher]

Jumpoline and Rainberella are two of DS1's words that make much more sense his way. These are the sort of words that stick with you and make their way into general family usage I think.

What do your kids say that makes more sense?

haha we have a bounce-aline here!

well you don't tramp on it do you?

My dd1 used to say "I'm drinky" when she was thirsty.

I thought that was very accurate!

that's so lovely weegie.

A jumpoline is called 'a boing' in our house.

My favourite was ds1's description of DP's headphones as a 'song hat' when he was v small. He also calls a globe a 'ball map'. Ds2 calls tears 'eye drops'

not logical ones but DS1 says
Karen Van (caravan)
Jackie Cakes (jaffa cakes)
Barbra Cube (BBQ)

BTPOG, ds1 calls the hazard lights in the car the 'haddock lights'.

midnight - I like it

at "song hat"!

We get bounce-alines here! (although he seems to be growing out of it)

Ds still (5.5) calls caravans Caliban's - dh & I always look out for wild & tempestuous beasts inside....

We have water sticks here for drinking straws.

My DS1 still calls satsumas "zamzoomers".

He also used to ham with a hammer and hoove with a hoover.

Underbellas. Umberellas makes sense to me.
