Kids Say the Craziest Things

Sometimes it's cute...other times, it's just a little weird

Kids Say the Craziest Things
ADD/ADHD Online Info

Recently, I began working at a daycare center, and it was honestly one of the best decisions I have ever made. In the past, I've worked with little kids at summer camps, so I suppose that's why I thought I would enjoy working at a daycare center. Boy oh boy, was I right! I genuinely love going into work every morning and seeing the smiles on the kids' faces, and leaving them every day as they cling onto my legs and beg me not to go home makes my heart swell. But what's the highlight of my day? It would have to be hearing the insane things that come out of some of their mouths. Kids truly say the craziest things, and I really don't know how or where they come up with half of the things they spew. So for your entertainment, here are some of the wild things little kids have said to me (with their ages, just so you can get an idea of just how creative their little brains are):

"I don't live life on the edge, I live in Stony Brook." - Four years old

"The reason twins are born together is because one baby didn't want to come out all alone." - Five years old

"I'm older than you because you're actually zero and haven't been made yet. You're just a computer program." - Four years old

"I am trash man!" - Three years old

"I don't have a dog. I have a garage." - Four years old

"I want to cut all of your hair off, color it rainbow and then tape it to my wall." - Three years old

"I pulled something out of an elephant's vagina." - Five years old

"But I'm broke! I have no money! Zero!" - Two years old

"My dad was playing soccer in a field and a ghost pooped on his head." - Five years old

"But I don't know what part of my body to wipe when I poop..." - Three years old

"The Goose says to the bear 'Put clothes back on, you're naked! Naked people go to a different planet 'cause it's bad!'" - Four years old

"Who took all of the stinkin' marker caps?!" - Two years old

"What am I doing? What does it look like I'm doing, getting dressed in front of everyone? No. I'm putting on my water shoes! How did you not see that?" - Three years old

"Can you cut yourself in half so I can take you home but you can still go home?" - Five years old

"Can't we get some peace and quiet in here? I am trying to MEDITATE here, people!" - Five years old

While this is only a handful of the things I hear, it is easy to tell that little kids truly say the craziest and funniest things. Their imaginations are so much greater than we realize, and the way they process situations is pretty hilarious at times. So many of the kids at work make my day brighter, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
