Broken lion
She might be 7 now, but my girl still says some daft things. But she’s not the only one.Β Her brother is nearly 12 and he STILL says daft things too. Here’s some of their latest classics…
(B1 is talking about camping by a safari park)
B1: I was woken by lions.
LG age 7: (mishears) What are broken lions?
B1 age 11 3/4: What would happen if an insect flew into your ear and touched your eardrum?
B2: I’m going to get a top on.
LG age 7: What’s a toppon?
Daddy: These are fresh burgers made this morning.
LG age 7: Were they cut off the pig this morning?
(Her brother is winding her up)
LG age 7 (to me): Where did you get him from? Your tummy must have felt BAD when you were having him.
LG age 7: I don’t like drinking water, but water will probably be one of the only things I like. (Yes, I was confused too!)
LG age 7: You know if a person is blind and they have a guide dog? When the guide dog is 17, can it drive a car?
LG age 7: I think nearly every single person in the world has been in a flat.
And, finally,Β a set of questions from my kids wouldn’t really be a set of questions from my kids unless it mentioned Hitler…
B1 age 11 3/4: If Hitler was still alive, would you be happy if I killed him?

I am sharing these questions as part of S2S2D as I’m sure our blogging friend Crazy with twins will find them funny. Emma is currently in isolation following radiotherapy and needs things to make her smile. Let’s be honest, anyone would find them funny!


Haha wouldn’t it be cool of guide dogs could drive??
Love these! I’m 31 and still say some very daft things so my offspring have NO hope!!
Haha this made me laugh as my kids (and myself) say daft things ALL the time!! Brilliant! xx
I love reading about your kids – they are so funny….. you must have a great time together x
I love the one about the guide dog! That’s epic!
Love the one about you feeling bad when you were pregnant with LG’s brother – priceless. π
That last one is actually one to think about!
Dogs driving, now there’s something to think about!
These made me laugh out loud…what ARE broken lions!?!
These are hilarious! The guide dog one is ingenious!! π
Hahaha….I want a guide dog who can drive! π
I also totally understand, quite often water is the only thing I like too π
Brilliant π
Thanks very much, everyone! I think we would all love a guide dog who could drive – whether we are blind or not. I suspect a guide dog would drive better than me!
Glad the questions and comments made you all laugh π
soooo funny, I’m actually crying!! Guide dogs driving is the best!!!
Haha I like the burger one best. gotta love it when kids try to get smart with you! Did you explain that beef doesn’t come from pigs? Lol.
Thanks for everything xx
The guide dog actually made me laugh out loud, and the last question… Hmm!?!
You have wonder how a child’s mind work sometimes don’t you!
Thanks very much, everyone. Glad you liked them! It certainly does make me wonder how a child’s mind works, Mary!
Emma – it hadn’t even occurred to me that she was eating beef and it doesn’t come off pigs! Duh! I’m a vegetarian, so that’s my excuse!
I CRACKED up about the one about the guide dog, that’s HILARIOUS!! Good job they can’t use the phone otherwise they would be phoning me up for lessons! π x
Thanks, Tori! I forgot you would find the guide dog one even funnier than other people do π x
LOL to can the guide dog drive a car!
I really didn’t see that one coming…
Sorry for the late comment, I am finally catching up xx
Thanks very much, a lot of people liked the driving guide dog! No worries about the late comment, they are welcome at any time! x
