As someone who works with young children through my internship, I am constantly amazed at the wonderfully insightful and often hilarious things kids say. Whether they're trying to comfort a friend who's visibly upset or refusing to answer to anything except Clark Kent all day, I constantly find myself wishing that I could view the world as they do. When your first instinct when a friend is crying is to cheer them up by singing them a song, you're doing something right. So here are a couple of my favorites from the past few weeks (I'll add more as I think of them):
"She broke my feelings!"said while crying about a fight with a friend.
"Can I tell you a secret? The Easter bunny is going to come to my house and poop out jelly beans."
Grown-up: "What is your parents' favorite drink so we can have it when they come tonight?"
All the kids say things like milk, water, pop, iced tea.
Grown up: "What's your dad's favorite drink?"
Boy:"Milk."
Grown-up: "And what's your mom's favorite drink?"
Boy: ....(thinks about it) "MEDICINE!"
