One of the most interesting sites on the Internet is one that was put up by Scott Hanselman (as a way to record the words of wisdom of his kids). He opened it up so that others could make submissions as well. The site is called overheard@home. Here are some classic examples from the website:
3 yr old, watching the second hand…
"It’s 7 o’clock….now it’s 8 o’clock…now it’s NINE o’clock!!!"
And this one:
Watching the Pixar movie "WALL-E"
7 year old – "ha ha, WALL-E thinks the booby trap is a pair of sunglasses!"
Me – "Erm, that’s not called a booby trap, its called a bra."
What about this one:
3.5 year old girl to her mother: “Mama, who hatched me?”
Mother: “I GAVE BIRTH to you, honey.”
Daughter: “And Max too?”
Mother: “And Max.”
Daughter: "So you had TWO children!?"
Mother: "Yes."
Daughter: "And what did daddy do?"
There are so many gems on that website that you can go on and on. And it is updated regularly as well. I have it in my bookmarks.
