Friday, September 17 _________________________ What kids say and do [journal] Kids are hilarious. There are times when I should intervene with a word of advice, but I find myself amused and transfixed at what they say. Scene: The end of the day after doing arts and crafts, including painting. The children are sitting in a line waiting for their parents to pick them up. Girl One: My hand smells like chips (licks hand enthusiastically). Girl Two: Can I try? Girl One: Noooooo. Girl Two: Can I smell? Girl One: Sure (extends hands to other girl's face)! Scene: Outside on the playground at the swing set. Girl One: (At the apex of each swing) Thirty seven, thirty eight, thirty nine, one hundred. Working at school is exhausting, but hearing funny things like this make it worth it. posted by joe | permalink | |
