Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings

Living with children is a laugh a minute. Here is a selection of unwitting wit from my sons Harvey (9) and Hughie (5).

Barmy Harvey


Humorous Hughie

Jonathan: Would you like some cheese and biscuits?
Hughie: No.
Jonathan: No what?
Hughie: No cheese and biscuits.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Jonathan: How is your eye today?
Harvey: I can't see my eye!
Jonathan: Yes, but how does it feel?
Harvey: A little bit okay, a little bit nokay.

Hughie: Daddy - draw Mummy's bottom.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Hughie (chanting): Hump, 2, 3, 4 - Hump, 2, 3, 4

Harvey (singing to an XTC song): Simon Wanderer's going to help me... (Listens to the lyrics again): Oh... Sargeant Roger's going to help me...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Hughie (singing a Ricky Martin song): She's into superstition, black cats and poo-poo dogs...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Hughie: What would happen if someone tried to smoke an ant?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Hughie (singing from outside the room): Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques, Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous? Nanni nanni tina, nanni nanni tina...
Harvey: That's his toilet song.

Jonathan: England should have beaten Brazil, but they went to sleep in the last minute.
Harvey: That must be because they were playing in the dark.
