Funny things grandchildren say

DGD(7) Grandma is very old (I'm 62, so fair enough )

DGS(11) Yes, but she's very acrobatic

Took me a while to get that one phoenix

DS2 when a littley asked me in the supermarket if the wine I had just put in the trolley was for boys. When I said that it wasn't he said "Well, why does it say serve child on the label?"

My 8 year old GD was studying her ticket on the bus. Mmmmm she said "It says single on my ticket. But I have a boyfriend".

My 5 yr old son wanted to get to school extra early because his friend Prasoon was from India, but still got to school before him each morning.
My 8 year old brother, on meeting our sister's new boyfriend who was a US naval officer on submarines, asked what he saw underwater. "Have you seen an octopus, I'm scared of them with their 8 long testicles".

Children can be so blunt. A friend of my GChildrens' grandad died - he had PD. One of my GC asked if that was what Papa (my OH) has (he has) and wanted to know why he was alive. But I like that candour in children - at least you know what you are dealing with!

We had two labs that had to be put to sleep through old age. We explained this to my 5 yr old grandaughter and thought she had understood. Next time she came, a few days later she asked where they were. Again we explained that they had died. Her response was Are they still dead ? It makes her laugh now ten years later

Quite a few years ago my (balding) dh was holding our dg in his arms when she looked up at him and said very seriously "grandad, did all the hair fall off you head and land on your arms"? Oft repeated now of course!

Haven't seen your name for ages Flowerofthewest. Glad you are still around! Or maybe I just haven't noticed

5 year old DGS after witnessing DHS 3rd trip to loo in one morning. "Grandma, grandpa is like me in the olden days, because in the olden days I wanted the potty all the time now grandpa does. I think we've swapped places".

A friend's little girl announced in a loud voice in a shop 'Daddy, you're a farter'. When he looked embarrassed she said 'Well, if we were in Germany you would be'. She had misheard the word Vater from somewhere.

DGS and DGD playing Poohsticks. DGS picks up a large stick; DGD(aged 6, two years older) says 'No, D....., that's unpoohstickable.'

Brilliant! Gillybob, yes there should be a like button......

DGD age 2,loves to play with her doctor's set. "Say 99!" she demands, or "I must just bang your knees!"
Yesterday, she declared "I shall have to operate - or you could have some cream?"
The cream wins every time - it would be so nice if all doctors could cure us so easily!

My GD aged three and a half and myself were at the kitchen sink the other day whisking up a sinkfull of water and washing up liquid to make bubble cakes when grandad came out to ask what we were doing. Making bubble cakes said GD. Can I help asked grandad, no, said GD because me and grandma are the teachers. Can I be a teacher asked grandad, no you can't, replied GD because you're just a child. (How right she is)

Nanny told GS that we couldn't afford to eat if Pompa gets the new car he wants. GS said, "well you could get a job" then he remembered "Oh I forgot, you are too old to get a job" !!

My 6 year old grandson returned from a holiday with his mum, dad and 2 sisters. The pilot came to the front of the plane to chat with the air stewardesses as the passengers got off. Upon reaching the front my grandson approached the pilot and said "are you a real pilot?" "yes" he said. "Oh" said my grandson "I thought you were just a learner cos that was a really bumpy landing".

He was rewarded (for his cheeky comment) with a visit into the cockpit and a turn of the Captain's hat !

I've never posted any comments on here before but felt I had to share this one.

I had a lovely holiday with my daughter and granddaughter but we had problems with our flight out to Spain. An hour into the flight we were told there was a technical fault and we would have to return to the airport (we did subsequently land without a problem).

When told we were returning to the airport my 5 year old granddaughter asked "are we going back to pick up some more people?". She also asked her Mum when we landed "do people always clap when the pilot lands the plane?".

My grandson aged seven, told is mother that one of his school friends had a ghost in his house - to make light heart of it, his mother said,

'It may be a good ghost'

'What do you mean "a good ghost"?'

'Well If I die and come back to visit you, then I'd be a good ghost.'

'No! don't do that, I'll be alright, I can look after myself.'

I don't know if I'm allowed to use the word 'f**t' but here goes.....

Last week I was out with my daughter and granddaughter - just turned 11. Suddenly she started skipping along with her feet wide apart. When asked why, she turned with a grin and said 'I've got a f**t stuck - oh that's okay, it's gone now'.

I'm sure the passers-by were wondering why we got a fit of the giggles!

Thankyou Sunseeeker. I think all the posts here are very funny, I really do. .

I did wonder whether Pollengrans posts were tongue in cheek unfortunately they didn't come across that way - perhaps a little smiley face might help next time

I wish we had a "like" button on Gransnet. Very often I really like a post but can't be bothered to write anything.

Any chance of that Gransnet??

After having brushed his teeth my 5 yr old at the time GS said that was gusting (disgusting) with a screwed up face. I looked at him then noticed he had used his DG's fixadent instead of toothpaste. I had to google to see if he had been poisoned poor wee man. This now gets removed from the bathroom when he visits.

We were on holiday in the countryside sitting on top of a hill overlooking beautiful fields and hills.

My son who was about 9 said "It must take ages to mow all that."

My grand daughter who is 5 asked me if I played with the dolls in my flat when she wasn't there.
