These are great!! Kids are hilarious! And YAY for reading the Boxcar Children!! Great, great book. Loved it.
These always crack me up! Thanks for sharing! Enjoy your break!! Much deserved!!
So fun!! So glad you share these - love the connections that young minds make to things...always reminds me to think outside the box! I think my favorite is the one about Costco being a state!!
Am glad he knows about the 99 restaurant:) There are so many good ones - do you keep a log of them?
Listening to these kids is indeed very interesting. Thanks for sharing and have a Blessed Christmas!
I live for these posts. They should be compiled into a book.
I am a retired teacher and so just LOVE to read this...the minds of children is just wonderful!!!
Thanks
