things kids do

pre-K kiddos crack me up and suprise me, and give me H1N1(actually, I think my exposure to their sneezes and coughs may actually be helping my immunity, or so I hope).


me: who's that in the middle?
j(girl):the octopus.
me: and what is he doing with all the other animals.
j(girl): he is going to destroy all the other animals.
me: and the other animals, what are they doing?
j(girl): they are just standing there watching the octopus.
me: they are just waiting to be destroyed?
j(girl): uh huh.

and as if that weren't telling enough, this second picture comes from what occured right next to the animal masacre.

me: uh oh. what's going on with the crocodile?
I(boy): he's eating the dinosaur.
me: why?
I(boy) he's just a toy.

gotta love preschool.

That is hilarious Mel! I remember playing with little plastic miniature farm animals. I would spend forevers setting them up, but my farm scenes never evolved into massacres. I guess I had a more mellow peace-loving attitude toward my toys. Or maybe I was just a really boring kid.

haha! That's seriously awesome! And you know what's even more awesome?! You're a teacher now and you're gonna have a million and one more stories like this! I expect lots of blog posts. :)
