Preschool teachers: What was the cutest/funniest thing one of your students said recently?

Question

....I teach gymnastics to kids ages 1-6. Today in class, I asked one of my 2 year olds if he wanted to show his forward roll. He looked at me and said, "Maybe later. I'm all rolled out." I almost died from the cuteness.

If you have any similar stories, please share! :)

Answer 2

I work with 2 and a half and 3 year olds.  They all say really cute things.  One of my fav. ones was there is this boy and his b-day was coming up and he knew it.  He would say, "my birthdays up there" (and points to the sky).  Then I would ask him "up where" and he would respond and say "up there in the sky" (Still pointing)  Now his b-day has past and the other day I asked where his birthday was and he said "It's at home, with my mom"

Answer 4

I work with children that have many different disabilities and this one student in particular has some speech issues and at the time wasn't using much language in my class.  So when this happened I was very excited!

A couple months ago, one of my students came in with various temporary tattoos on his arm, leg and even one on his forehead of all places.  The student I was referring to in the paragraph above went up to him and placed is pointer finger on the other child's forehead and said, "Look it a tootatt, it a tootatt!" I was laughing and overjoyed that he engaged and spoke independently!  It was a very neat moment!

Well I work at an after-school program with three preschoolers.  I was talking to one of them- a little boy- and it was around christmas.  And I asked him "who says ho ho ho?" and he wouldn't answer.  I asked him again and he said "I don't know".  I then said "well doesn't Santa Claus say ho ho ho" and his exact reply was:

"No he says ho ho!"

Answer 12

I did a spontaneous natural science lesson with my Preschoolers by bringing in a thick sheet of ice from our water table outside our door.   It had a lot of dry leaves, twigs, stones, etc. frozen into it.  There was lively talk about what happens when water gets hot or cold and for language development we used the words liquid and solid.  Next day a mom shared with me that her little boy came home and told her he learned all about, " licorice and salad." (liquid and solid)!!

I have heard so many over the years, but this one has always stuck with me. If you follow the rugby, you will get it!

I was showing flashcards, with pictures correlating to the letter. I held up "W" and told the children that it was a picture of a Wallaby. One of my 3 yr old students piped up and said, "That's not a Wallaby, a Wallaby is a football team!"

Priceless .... I couldn't continue my lesson for giggling so hard!

Answer 15

I teach 13 year olds and they say some pretty adorable things.  Some kid made some stupid comment and this other kid said, 'We don't need any comments from the Pottery Barn."  The class was silent for a while and then broke into hysterical laughter when he realized his gaffe that he meant "Peanut Gallery"
