Not MoneySaving in the slightest but we thought you'd enjoy this Metro article on a nursery that's Instagramming things its kids say!
What have your kids said that made you laugh out loud/spit tea out?
My 8-year-old's most memorable was when I was taking her to the doctor and I told her she'd need to describe the symptoms: "They're yellow and one's called Homer"! :rotfl:

My 4.5 year old asked me if I died when I was in a car crash. It was hard not to laugh, as I really though he had understood the concept of death when our dog died. Clearly not.Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
Five year old DS saw our friends' wedding photo, and asked where ours was. I replied that we didn't have one as we weren't married. He asked "why not?" and I said that I'd never been asked.
He replied, "aww Mummy, I'll marry you!"He's a romantic wee soul!

When my daughter was 5 she told me they had been learning about "shiny new ear" at school, it took me a while before the penny dropped, she meant Chinese New Year, still makes me smile when I think about it0

One Christmas, my 5 year old nephew, who'd been a king in his school nativity play, was in a supermarket with his mum and dad. Suddenly he wandered across to a lady in a burqa, and said, "Hello. My name's Will, are you a shepherd?"In memory of Chris Hyde #8670

When my nephew was about 3 he asked if I wore those white things on my bum like his Mom did :eek: I pretended not to hear him, but he continued to tell me about how the white things were found in the bathroom cupboard, but you didn't see them very often..... I felt like he was the adult & I was the kid0

When told to behave by his Mum as we set off on a trip, my god-son (aged 4 at the time) said "But Mummy, I am always being have!"0

My son aged about 3 or 4 was a big Postman Pat addict.
One day we wandered down to the village Post Office and he saw a lady with grey curly hair, coming out of the shop/PO.
He pointed to her (why do kids do that?) and asked if she was Mrs Goggins.
Another time, his first trip to the dentist. Said dentist was just being polite by saying 'how are you Nicholas'. He said, 'i'm fine thanks, and don't call me Nicholas! (prefers to be called Nick) LOLMortgage free as of 10/02/2015. Every brick and blade of grass belongs to meeeee. :j0 -
I think ive told this before but for those who haven't heard it i'll tell it again.
Sitting together in one Sunday church service... one of my children tugged at my clothing. She was only about 6 or 7 at the time.
"Mom" she said. "I don't like Gods tie" pointing at the pastor of the church who was delivering his surmon.
"God?" I said.... "Hes not God, why do you think he's God?"
She answered "Well at the beginning of him talking he always says 'this is the word of God'.:rotfl:
My youngest son called the church pastor Dad more than once. The old dears nearly choked on their cup of tea after the service.... I had to explain that he calls all men Dad. He was only about 2 and just beginning to talk. To him all men were "Dad" Exit one very red faced scarlet woman.:DThis is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Older ones aren't any better! Watching a recent Crimewatch with my kids and there was a segment on internet safety and sexual explotation. In one scene there was a typed message shown with a spelling mistake.
15yo son's advice to his younger sister 'Never accept a friend request from people who can't spell'
