Things you allow your children to say incorrectly because it is just too damn cute...

[schneebly]

DS2 says "Mummy my heart is beeping"

Hennycopter - helicopter

dd1: 'diccifult'
dd2: 'beesgusting'

for a little while dd called crumpets grumpies- i was gutted when she started getting it right

i loved upple down for upside-down too

breakfast is and always has been brestust...which dh and i seem to have started saying too...

There are quite a lot of the cuteness mentioned in other posts that one of my dcs has said.
ds2 used to say jimamas for pyjamas,
dd1 gets tr mixed with f and so we had many a giggle at the "big trucker"!!
She asks to "sit on my knee Mummy". And as she has 2 older brothers she insists "I'n a boy".

Ahh - we have cuggles (rather than huggles) here.

Lots of mixes of French and English from DS1 (4) (que instead of that too).

We loved "snerpent" (snake/serpent)
and "forkette"

my DD (2.2) calls gloves "big hands"!

DS1 used to call chocolate
'Clockit'

she also says to me every day, pointing at me: "he's got his glasses on him"

dd flings her arms round my neck and shouts 'cubble'.

Crumpets are bunkits
Uncle Matthew is Mattpoo
Auntie Libby is Bibby

I positively encourage it.

Oh yes, forkette is lovely, we used to have that too .

DD said "splace" instead of parking space/place.

Dd declines the verb 'to resc'

Resc you
Resc me
Rest him etc

For ages my dd kept talking about being scared on the animal centre hadn't a clue what she meant until we went shopping and she wouldn't get on said animal centre(escalator)!
We also have a big hill near us that we drive up then down and she calls that the water fall.

Pseudocreme, we have cubbles too!

Ds goes for a swum rather than a swim and he says subramine instead of submarine.

He also just told me his friend got an 'intendo' ds for christmas. Ahhh.

capertiller
war-der-drobe (wardrobe)

thingers

I spent a long time practising saying 'th' - three, Theo etc rather than fwee and feo but he took it too far

DS1 had an obsession with washing machines and vacuum cleaners at about the time he started talking and would spend hours reading the relevant pages of the argos catalogue as well as talking to our own machines.

They were called

washing machine - wash nee nee
vacuum cleaner - vac nee nee

The telephone was a dor-dor and the stereo a dor-dor-dor.

He also created his own word for something we never did work out. If he was playing shops he would always be going to buy some:

gobi de gobi and billa balla!

He is 6 now and still says cropramme instead of programme and his 4 year old brother does the same.

'agit panda' is an advent calendar in our house (dd 2.8))

and the dwarves in snow white are the 'heigh-hos'

My ds is just begining to grow out of 'mazagine'.

I wish he wouldn't!

I know, dd doesn't say colder bear (polar bear) any more

Cimena and Panty-mine.

Love it.

Gob for pick (for a guitar)

Weetabix for breakfast used to be E-B-C-bowl-spoon to ds1. He also used to talk about air-see-sees (airplanes) and cor-cuck-cucks (helicopters). A friend who was a pilot told all his colleagues about this, and for a while they all referred to them as air-see-sees and cor-cuck-cucks - must have caused a bit of confusion with Air Traffic Control!

Ds2 used to run together the names of two friends - Jo and Lisa became Jolisa, but only when referring to Lisa - we never did get to the bottom of that one.

Many good memories brought back by this thread - especially glubs (gloves) and cuggles (cuddles)!

My dd is nearly 8 now but still comes out with funny words.
We were walking home fromm shops yesterday around half four, was getting dark but not completely dark iykwim.
I commented on a few stars being out already and she said 'I know it's odd isn't it cos it's still quite morningish isn't it'

Binoculars were, for DS, gogglyknocks and for DD1 knockables.

DS is 6 now, and still says heliklopter and calls hot air balloons honeymoons.

DD1 who is oddly polite says 'no welcome' when you thank her for doing something.

The words we've kept after they've outgrown them are 'betch' for breakfast, 'podge' for porridge and 'boofly' for beautiful.

Sweethorse is a work of genius by the way.
