My daughter Elizabeth is three and half years old, and she cracks me up all the time. See below for two of her stories, and share some of your children's funny comments.


Elizabeth tends to fuss a lot when it's bedtime. So a while ago, I told her an hour in advance that it was almost bedtime, and I didn't want a tantrum tonight. To which she replied, "okay mummy, you can count on me!"

That was funny enough in itself, but come bedtime, my daughter looks at me crossly and says:

Elizabeth: Mummy, I told you, you can count on me

Mummy: Yes, and I am proud of you for keeping your word

Elizabeth: Well, you didn't count on me, you are supposed to say (touching her head) 1, 2, 3, 4. . .

I think I laughed my head off!


One more. . .

I have been trying to teach her the value of money and how you can't have everything you want. So sometimes in the store, when she wants a toy I say, "Elizabeth, you can't have that because it costs two (or three) moneys, and mummy only has one".

Well, one day we go to the mall and I enter this really expensive store. After looking at two price tags, I decide that I have no business being in there and start to hustle Elizabeth out the door. At this point, she turns around and says to me, in a very loud voice so everyone in the store can hear, "Mummy, are we leaving because you don't have enough money to buy the things?" Embarassing!!!

'i have to start eating them before aunty comes.she begs too much!'

Kids can embarrass people some times, but they remain cute and sweet.

Funny and interesting world of kids!

My little niece and I once engaged in the following conversation

Me: Lope, how old are you?
Tomi: I'm 3years old
Me: How old am I?
Tomi: You are 6 years old'
Me: No, am older than 6
Tomi: Ok, you are 7

(When I said 'No' she kept increasing it by 1yr and by the time she got to '10' I was bored and I said

Me: Tomi, how can I be 10yrs old, can't you see how big I am? She kept quite for about a minute and I guess she did some mental calculation she looked up to me and said with excitement

Tomi: "Aunty, you are BIG years old'!!! shocked shocked shocked

Kids and their funny ways

A friend shares a conversation between her 8 yr old son and 5 yr old daughter,

Daughter: You are sagging, you are sagging

Son: I am not sagging. It's the trouser, the waist is big.

(Their mum, overhearing the conversation between the two call the son)

Mum: The waist is big? Come and wear another trouser.

Son: (In response to mum). No. I like the trouser like that.

grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin @ the kid that said his aunty begs too much.


When I was a kid we had a guy that used to visit with us and he was blind in one eye. I was so fascinated by the eye and I just had to know what happened to it. I knew I could not do it while my mom was around so I waited for the perfect time. As soon as I thought it was safe I said "Brother what happened to your eye". Unfortunately what I thought was a whisper was loud enough for my mom to hear. She and my Aunty brushed me that day.

My sister’s husband was trying to compliment his little daughter who just had her hair done and he said to her ‘Nene you her is looking sweet’. His son who is just 3 asked in surprise ‘is it a Rice’? (as far as he was concerned, its only food that could be sweet)

What made his question so funny was the complete innocence and surprise he expressed. It was so hilarious!! After his dad gently explaind what he meant to him. He actually saw the humour in his question and turned it to a joke.

Immidiately my sister (his mother) came home, he rushed to her and said 'Mummy, Nene's hair is looking Rice' grin grin grin
