      my ds2 is learning how to talk and does not have fantastic vocab.

      yesterday while we were playing ball, i accidentally threw the ball and it hit his groin and he exclaimed...

      ds2: aw!!! my tail!!

      šŸ˜“

      he did realise the wrong usage of words immediately after he spout out 'tail'. :lol:

        Haiz .....


        Continuation from the \"where does mummi's pee pee come from\" episode posted earlier ....


        Two days ago, while teaching him to play table tennis at home, I had to get up and pick the ping pong ball .... then suddenly

        DS: mummi mummi, XXX want to go down to the shop

        Me: why boy?

        DS: mummi say mummi no birdie, XXX want to go down to auntie shop and buy birdie and fix there on mummi (pointing to my .......)

        Me: :faint:

          This happened 2 months back. (My ds will be 3 1/2 coming April)


          He was playing chess with his daddy and I was watching tv at that time. During the commercial I diverted my attention to them. It was my ds turn at that time and I wanted to help him.

          Me: Hey darling, move this white pawn. This pawn can 'eat' the blue knight.

          DS: (no response from him)

          Me: Move this white pawn. (I repeated again and encouraged him)

          DS: (Again no response from him)

          Me: Come on..

          Finally he turned and looked at me : Mummy I am BLUE!


          :oops: I realised he is more clear-minded than me..almost can feel his eyes rolling at me!



          Another incident. (3 months back)

          Daddy: Go pick something. We are going to the swimming pool.

          DS happily dashed off and returned with 3 items. A watering can, a ball and a pail. He laid them on the floor.

          Daddy: No..not too many..one item will do..

          DS: NO! I want to bring them all.

          Daddy: I say only one!

          DS: NO! I want bring all. (My ds is very stubborn)

          He then quickly put the watering can in the pail and placed the ball on top of the pail.


          DS: There!..now only one! (he pointed)

          My hubby paused for a while. In the end, my ds happily went to the swimming pool with 3 items he wanted..because he 'managed' to fufil my hubby's condition of 'one'.


          This happened when he was 2 years old. My hubby bought an ice-cream (assorted flavours) from the ice-cream man with a bike. He gave it to my ds and kept asking my son what is the flavour. (My hubby is pretty excited as this is the first ice-cream he bought him)

          My ds told him what the flavour was the first few times..

          After my hubby asked him for the fifth time, my ds reply to him : Don't talk, I eat first

                  The chicken-a-la-carte video that tutormom put up in another thread reminded me of this incident with DS.


                  I chanced upon this video quite some time back and showed it to my kids. DD's response was like so poor thing, ok mummy I will not waste food anymore. DS was very pensive and quiet.

                  Then at dinnertime. He suddenly said all of us cannot finish our food. So I reminded him about the video and he was all teary and insisted that we cannot finish our food. I was :? . Then he said if everyone finish eating everything then those poor children will not have any food to eat. So we must leave some for their father to collect for them.

                  The logic of a 4yr old kid. How to win?
