What have you learned from children? People ask what you learned from your parents, but what about children?

Question

Some things I have learned from children.......

1. A king size water bed holds enough water to fill a 2,000 sq. foot house four inches deep.

2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.

3. A 3-year-old's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a superman cape. It is strong enough, however, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 foot room.

5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using the ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

6. The glass in windows (even double pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words "Uh-oh", it's already too late.

8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.

9. A six-year-old can start a fire with a flint rock, even though a 36-year-old man says they only do it in the movies. A magnifying glass can start a fire even on an overcast day.

10. Certain Lego's will pass right through the digestive tract of a four-year-old.

11. "Play-Doh" and "microwave" should never be used in the same sentence.

12. Super glue is forever.

13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.

14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

15. VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.

16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.

17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

18. You probably do not want to know what that odor is.

19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.

20. The fire department in Austin has a 5 minute response time.

21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earth worms dizzy. It will however make cats dizzy. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

Answer 1

What a charming list, thank you so much for posting it. I have sons, so I have learned some strange things.

Tuna cans set on top of firecrackers launch amazing distances.

Always empty a child's pockets before doing laundry, because worms don't come through the dryer neatly.

Broken bones are something to be proud of, but a hangnail will make one writhe in agony.

It's possible to absorb nutritients through XBOX Live, thus eliminating the need for eating.

Answer 2

*Pennies will also pass through the digestive tract of a two-year-old (and here I am referring to the "Lego" lesson) but it will take 5-7 days and 6 x-rays. During this time, the nurses in the ER will stop calling her "Gabriela" and start calling her "Penny"

*Under the wallpaper in "Penny's" bedroom, there is pink paint. Which is chipping off. To reveal a colour which I call "We were too poor in the 30's to buy any other colour except this toxic blue".

*The "...toxic blue" paint is powdery.

*Primer does not stick to powdery blue paint.

*There is no such thing as "childproof".

*Bedtime is negotiable. It is too! Is TOO! IS TOO!!!!

*Even the smallest morsel of mushroom is unpalatable.

*All the Old Testament prophets wore a "rib"...not a robe...a "rib".

*The place where we wash cars is called the "wash dosh".

*The world is a magical place. Even if I can't ride my swing to Mexico, it's a magical, delightful, beautiful place!

Answer 3

Yesteryear dad and mom don't be trained so much from their kids because of intellectual pleasure / ego. Current dad and mom need to be trained from their kids or more youthful ones because of the enormous difference in medical development. One illustration - the mobilephone has introduced so much moderation wherein the dad and mom stay on the elementary stage & need to be trained from kids for the development alterations, like such a lot of. But in cultural / conventional spear it is just a technique - dad and mom to kids.

Answer 4

Today my 6 year old nephew taught me that there is an invisible monster who makes him insult at his brother and fight with him. Soo he is totally innocent! :)) If you ever do such thing, keep in mind that you have nothing to do with it. It's that naughty monster! :))
