Little Pictures Have Big Ears

I've never heard that one but my mother always said, "little pictures have big ears" Kind of the same so it is entirely possible your Mom just did her own thing. Cute phrase anyway but it didnt take my kids long to understand that it meant I didnt want them to hear something.

Little Pitchers Have Big Ears
That is what our family said in the same situation.

That's what I love about families, the traditions and humor. Our family is a little on the strange side, so we're always coming up with new words, sayings, and such. One of our sayings is like "an apple a day, keeps the doctor away". It is, "A gizzard a day makes you full of gizzards".

Little Pigs? No, not in my house. My mom said...walls have ears, so be careful what you say.

I'm pretty sure you mean little pitchers -- as of water. Not pictures that hang on the wall.

"Little pigs have big ears" is what most people in the north (and probably beyond)of England say.
