Are you quite certain your younger son is not demonically possessed?

Did you ask him what the eyes said? We need to know. It might've been a message from Kos (some say Kosm).

I’m not really sure why, considering I’ve got plenty of unusually violent things my kids have said to go to on this one, but I am reminded of the time I was play-wrestling with my son, who was about four. All was going well until he started yelling TICKLE MY BUTTHOLE, TICKLE MY BUTTHOLE. I guess it was still going well then too, really, but it took me a little while to compose myself and explain that “butthole” isn’t interchangeable with “butt.” Thanks, other kids on his bus.

Someone recently pointed me to a manga which is apparently based on the anecdotes related by a Japanese kindergarten teacher, and it's pretty much 100% poo poo Kids Say:

Echoing the love for T-Sensei, it's incredibly adorable and touching. It's also in a strange way informative for me 'cause I've spent very little time among really young kids. What I've gathered thus far is that it's as though preschoolers are perpetually unprepared for a job interview and as such are bluffing or charming their way through every waking moment.

T-sensei's internal monologue is me alll day everyday. It is damned rare to see a male kindy teacher in Japan; I do wonder about him. Yesterday, G4 (special needs) really got worked up because he had a viola recital and his mom ACTUALLY CAME OMG so he was losing it. He conspired with A1 to double-smack my rear end in front of his mom . Did I die? Nine times. Did she turn around and immediately smack him in the rear end while yelling, "DO YOU LIKE? YOU NO LIKE! MS. FLETA NO LIKE!!!?" she did! Did I laugh so hard at G4's shame that I ran and hid? Yup.

My coworker, whose son is in first grade, came to me cry-laughing this morning. Her son, R, was very concerned about my health and wardrobe. R: "Ms. Fleta got sick last week and didn't come to school." R-MOM: "Yes, I know." R: "I think it's because she doesn't wear underwear. She must be really cold all the time." R-MOM: "What?!" R: "She said she doesn't like to wear pants. I think it's okay, but she should wear them in the winter." And that is how R learned that his British mom speaks a different version of English than myself.

I have a lot kids from other countries and sometimes the cultural differences weird me out. Like parents from Pakistan refer to me as "teacher" instead of my name, even being addressed as "mr." would be really weird, and ask me when I'm going to teach their kid to read and write. I then explain that we don't really do that in norwegian kindergartens.

One of my favorite kids who is also one of the biggest troublemakers wanted to show me something he had written in his down-time notebook earlier that day. It starts off talking about how he hopes he will be better behaved the rest of the day because he started off acting poorly that day, and how he had a rough time in kindergarten but "Mrs. Bravo hell'pt me. I wish ther wher 100 more days left of sckool."

G3: (singing) "A compuuuuuter...is taking my things! A compuuuuuter...he taking the things! A compuuuuter....is eating my things!" (not singing) "Oh, computer, you stop eat** now. You are so fat. You a fat, bad computer." *pause* "Ms. Fleta! He not finish the lunch! He not can go outside!" *smacks computer with its "lunch," AKA a ruler* **To be fair, he could have been saying "stop it" but I'm not always sure. He's the smartest kid in the class, but definitely has the worst English pronunciation.

After finishing a dinosaur jigsaw puzzle together, my 7-year-old told me, "Daddy, you're like a brachiosaurus because sometimes you act like you have a nose on your head." Then she left. After I spent a minute trying to figure out what the hell that meant, she poked her head back into the room. "Also, you're very tall and weigh a whole ton."

Fleta Mcgurn posted:A1, being the loudest and most charismatic member of the class, is scared of The Meg and as a result they have all become obsessed. Right around The Meg was about to come out in theatres, the 4 year olds were learning about sea creatures. On shark day, I mentioned the megalodon and how big they were. One kid who went to cinema pretty often turned to rest of the class and very solemnly told them “Yes, their mouth is very big, they can bite a boat in half! I saw it you know!”

G4 is mad at me. He finds it difficult to stay mad at me for very long. G4: "You is a stupid."  ME: "Please respect my heart." *crosses hands over heart* G4: *growl* "Okay. You GRANDMA is stupid." ME: "My grandma is dead." G4: "Oh." *thinks* "Okay. You is stupid. But is broma." ME: "That's not a nice joke." G4: *screams* "OOOOOKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY" *kisses me on the cheek* "Now you good." Tomorrow is the last day of school. I'm gonna miss them a lot.

HenryEx posted:The ones you made for them I actually found little "archaeology" toys at Tiger. You chip away at a softish "dirt" matrix and extract a dinosaur skeleton toy. That, some bubbles, washi tape, and a card. (Except for G4; he got plastic vampire teeth instead of tape.) I also bought them some Calippo

I remember those things! Ours had a small variety of semi-precious polished stones inside it, rather than a fake dinosaur skeleton, but I think I would've preferred it that way as a child. Tourquoises are pretty and they stay that way even thirty years later. I don't think I would've kept the dino skellington.
