DD2 (Yr 1) came out of school today and said

[lougle]

"Mum, did you know we have guns in our body?" I was and said 'what?' "Guns Mum. We have guns in our body." Even more confused, I asked 'what do guns do?' "I dunno, help us breathe I think."

Her teacher had been talking to her about lungs.

Is that sort of mishearing normal in Yr 1?

My sister when a child insisted that the words of her favourite hymn were 'I am the lord of the dance settee' (instead of 'said He') mum and I were crying with laughter

MY DD has been singing a Christmas sing about Gargling (aka Gaurdian) Angels and the Version Mary!

Yes I used to sing I am the Lord of the dance settee as well

Lord of the Dance settee???

Bloody hell, that's brill.

My DS1 used to talk about the song they were singing at school called "Harry Woo Yes" Was Hallelujah.

My neice used to sing Mary, Mary fat and hairy instead of quite contrary ha ha!

We have had a variety of odd songs from reception DD. Most recently (harvest festival) it was "Big, Red, Carbona-ara, Big, Red, Carbonara...flashing the corn, carbonara, flashing the corn, carbonara...." Nothing would convince her it was actually 'combine harvester' and 'thrashing'.

We had a 'Patridge in a pantry'

Ds heard Jesus as Cheesus back in YR - he still says it in Y5
But then he also heard conkers as plonkers, light sabres (star wars) as light savers and a huge variety of others.
If I didn't know better, I would have said he was Mrs Malaprop's love child!

When ds1 was little he used to ask for me to sing the 'Baby cd ' song. First time I had no idea what he was on about but he was adamant it was a song I sang him.

So I got him to try to sing it to me and he did - baby cd e f g h etc etc

Oops meant to say it was the alphabet he wanted!

My DD - aged 6, Year 1 - shares my love of scented candles, and likes to ask me if she can sniff my wanky candles (Yankee, Yankee!)

The Manx national anthem has the words, "No evil our souls can betide.", most kids know this line actually says evil arseholes :)

Aw zipzap - that brings back lovely memories, I'd completely forgotten that DS used to ask me to sing the 'baby cd' song as well.
