Kids say the darnest things...

buds:

Come on... you know this! What do you say/use when something

is presented to you...?

\"Errr... hmm... i know... say Thank You.\"

:rotflmao:

Yes, we have to say \"Thank you\" when we receive something.

Sometimes, she is too smart for her own good. Luckily, sashimi and I are still ahead of her but I do wonder what kinds of rubbish DD1 will fill DD2's head with in the years to come. Sigh....

schellen,
welcome to my world.

DD2 and I were doing some assessments couple of days ago.

on the note on assessments, ds1 did one about Uncle A sweeping leaves into Uncle B's yard and Uncle B burns the leaves into fertilizers for his veg patch and then gave some of his harvest to Uncle A causing Uncle A's face to turn red (in embarassement). When the question asked about what Uncle A will do in the future, ds1's answer is
\"Uncle A will give Uncle B more leaves\".

I said answer is \"Uncle A is so embarassed that he will not sweep leaves into Uncle B's yard again\", ds1 argued that question is asking for \"what Uncle A WILL DO in the future\". :roll:

Visited my sis during cny and gave ang pow to niece. Niece immediately tried to open it.


Sis: What are you doing?
Niece: I want to see how much big 'jiu jiu' give me.
Sis (sternly): When people give you ang pow, you can only open it at home, understand?
Niece: But now I at home wat
Sis: ??? :?

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: It's just like when I'm at my student's house. After tuition, sometimes I dismiss them by saying \"you can go.\" One student was confused and asked \"Go where?\". Another was like \" :? I'm at home, what do you mean? Go home?\"

Phonics disaster................ :lol: :lol: :lol:


Though dd has heard of the word \"vagina' many times, she may not have visualised it. So recently while walking on the streets....she gave out a loud yell suddenly...

dd:eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

me: what? what? what? (my head spinning around)

dd: \"Va-gi-na\" Hotel....what kind of hotel is that?

me: where?

dd: there...up there......

me: I looked up and burst into laughter.... \"Vir-gi-nia\" Hotel my dear....OMG....your eyes and your phonics do not tally....or maybe it's your brain....you choose to see \"na\" instead of \"nia\"

dd: kakakkakakakkakakkakakakakkakakakakakkakakakkakakkakakaka

She could not stop laughing at her own blunder for the whole night.....my silly kid... :rotflmao:
