Funny Things Preschoolers Say (and Do!)

Several weeks ago, I wrote about the scars that I receive at work, and how tough my job can be at times (ok, pretty much all the time). But lest you think my job is never fun, here some some humorous anecdotes and quotes to brighten your day.

Me: You’re bananas!
Child: My bananas? But I don’t have any bananas...
Me: No, I mean you ARE bananas.
Child: Ohhhh!

“Avengers dissemble!”

Teacher: You’ve been having a great day! Good job!
Child: What about me? I’ve been good today! Well, a little bit good...

Me: Shhh, listen! Do you hear that bird? Look, he’s right there! Do you think he’s talking to you?
Child: ....What, bird? What is it? What do you need to say, bird?

After having a rough day, apparently my face was showing my frustration.
Child: Why are you making your eyes like that?
Me: My eyes like what?
Child: You mad?
Me: Well, it hasn’t been a very good day, bud.
Child: Come on, be happy! Just smile, ok?

Teacher (to me): Wow, you even matched the color of the paintbrush to the color of the paint in each cup!
Child: Way to go, Miss Jane! That’s my girl!!

After playing on the playground, we called the children to line up to go back inside. One little girl was not lining up. Instead, she sat on the ground, leaning against the fence, and would not get up no matter how many times she was called.
Teacher: I’m going to count to three, and if you do not get up, you will not get to hold a buddy’s hand, and you will hold a teacher’s hand! One.... Two.... Three.....
Child: STUCK!
We soon realized that her pants were stuck to the fence, and she could not get up, no matter how much she tried.

We asked a child how his Easter was, and if he had an Easter egg hunt. His response?
“I got mad eggs!”

One child tripped and fell onto another child. The child underneath furiously said, through gritted teeth: “Get off me, buns!!”

And the grand finale...
“We don’t talk about boobs.”
