When my eldest two were very young they were sat crossed legged in front of the TV watching the film E.T., the younger one said 'What does ET stand for anyway?' to which his brother replied 'extra testicle of course' gringrin
Anyone else got any 'gems' that their children have come out with.

I asked my daughter one day if my 2 yr old grand-daughter had fallen asleep for her afternoon nap. My grand-daughter replied, No, I haven't fallen asleep yet, my eyes are still looking.

When my girl was about two, she insisted she wanted dibbits for lunch.
I had no idea what she meant, and she got quite upset as only dibbits would do.
She made it clear when she said she wanted egg and dibbits.
You dib the slices of bread into your egg.

One of mine was adamant that they weren’t going to school because it was ‘insect’ day. (Inset). We found it hard not to laugh. She said the teachers would all be counting insects.
