Conversations with Kiddies

When I was at work today, I got the idea to post some funny conversations I have with the kids that I take care of at the daycare. I know there are at least a few ladies out there who may find these conversations as funny as I did! Here are a few:

There's a girl named Mariah - she has blonde hair, blue eyes and she wears cute little glasses. I've got quite a soft spot for her, as she is one of the kids that prefers being by my side for the whole time that I am there. Anyway, a few days ago she was sitting on my lap and our conversation went as follows:

Mariah: is that car outside yours?
Me: Nooo..that's my parents' car
Mariah: Will you buy your own car?
Me: Hmmm, maybe...what color should it be?
Mariah: I don't know..
Me: What about pink or purple?
Mariah: yeah!
Me: Will you help me pick it out? We could make a day of it, want to?!
Mariah: yes! and then we could go shopping...and you could buy me some Barbie clothes!
Me: Okay! We'll go shopping together in our pink and purple car. But we should go out to lunch, too. Should we go to McDonalds and get two Happy Meals?
Mariah: yes, I want to!

Another conversation that took place between me and a 5 year old named Cole:

Cole: But I want to go outside! It's sunny out, Manda...plllleeeeeaaaassseee!
Me: Cole, we just came inside and now I need to do the chores.
Cole: But Trisha always lets us go outside!
Me: Cole, I said no.
Cole: You're mean! I'm never coming back here!
Various other kid: Yeah, right, Cole - you'll be back tomorrow!

Mariah: My mom wears a bra (pronounced "bwa").
Me: I bet.
Mariah: She has lots of them.
Me: Mm-hmm.
Mariah: Do you?
Me: Mariah, that is not a polite question to ask.
Cole: Yeah, she does, Mariah.
Me: Cole!!

One more (can't resist!):

McKenzie: Why can't I look at the magazine!
Me: Because you just hit Sofie, because she wanted to look at it, too.
McKenzie: Well, I had it first!
Me: *ignores*
McKenzie: I said I want to see it! Let me look at it!
Me: *ignores*
McKenzie: Well, since you're being mean, I'm not letting you come to my house when I grow up!
Sopie: You can come to my house, Manda!
Me: Oooh, thanks, Soph!

Okay...I'll stop for now...!

lmao! that is so funny. i love to babysit. sometimes, they are too full of energy, to where when you see them your tired! lol. but nonetheless i love to babtsit, and i get good money, but its so worth it.

Thats adorable Alli! Little kids are SO much fun!

That young whippersnapper Cole sounds like a young Flashman. May the Lord have mercy on our souls.

Thanks Alli. That was wonderful! We were laughing our heads off! Priceless :)

:D Alli, those conversations are awesome. I love kids. Those convos remind me of the stuff kids at the library I help out with stuff at say. great stuff, I miss that innocence but great knowledge I had back then.

"and you could buy me some Barbie clothes!"


Lol.

lmao
aw that's so cute

As always Manda, I love hearing about your adventures with the kiddlings! Thanks for posting these! You should put up some more, They're great fun! I think you told me that last one last weekend... Yeah... Yeah, you did! Anyway, this was quite a refreshing topic! I'm sure as long as you're working with children, You'll never run out of stuff like this! And I for one will look forward to hearing them! :D

LOL! awww cute :)

Glad that you all enjoyed them! I was thinking of posting some more, so if you all would like to read them, I'll put some more up that I can remember. :^)

"Me: Cole, we just came inside and now I need to do the chores.
Cole: But Trisha always lets us go outside!"

This "somebody always let's us do things" -thing is so popular among my pupils (14-15 yrs) as well, so it's not just a kiddie thing. Always as hilarious, though. For example:

A pupil: Can't we end the lesson earlier today?
Me: No, we cannot, we've got plenty of important things to go through
A pupil: But you ALWAYS let us end earlier on Fridays!
Me: *Ignores* (since it has only happened twice during the whole year...)

Here's a treasure of mine...

Talking to a fellow musical cast member's little brother, Kevin. I think he's four.

(Background info: Musical version of the Ugly Duckling. This kid's older brother is Ugly. I'm the gorgeous duck who disses him. This is right after act one, during intermission.)

Kevin: How come you were mean to my brother?
Mandy: That was just the script, I wasn't actually being mean to him.
Kevin: You said he was ugly.
Mandy: I Was supposed to.
Kevin: Why?
Mandy: Because it was in the script.
Kevin: What's a script?

I can't wait till he gets to mid school...

oh that's sooo cute!!!!!! I love it!!! YOu should post more!!! lmao@Sir Archie Leach!

Here's a classic conversation I had one day with my 8 year old:

Daughter: It's a shame you and Dad don't have sex anymore.
Me: Why do you say that?
Daughter: Because no babies have come.
Me: Well I take tablets to stop the babies coming.
Daughter: That's not how it works.
Me: Is it not? How does it work then?
Daughter: Daddy puts plastic on his willy, thats how it works.

Unable to find a decent answer I just fell about laughing.
