Funny things grandchildren come out with

I was going for a shower and said, as I usually did , that I was going to make myself beautiful. My then 6 year old grandson said “You’re already beautiful, Nana.” Sweet. In contrast, a few days later , I made the same announcement to my then 6 year old granddaughter. Looking up from her book and rolling her eyes at her granddad, she replied “Good luck with that . “ You’ve got to love them !

My lovely younglings were wonderful to take out for a meal, one Sunday lunch out the youngest, age 3, needed a bathroom visit. Father did the honours and tiddler walked through the restaurant announcing to everyone he had just done a poo. Hope no one was actually eating at that point!

Out in the car one day we saw a blind man with a helping dog, my son asked what the dog was for, so I explained that he was trained to look after the man, take him to the shops safely and then back home. He thought for a few minutes then said, " when they get home, does he make the sandwiches because I was thinking he might eat the meat."

My little one always liked to read her mazageens. Once, when some gravy soaked into the salt on poppa’s plate she announced it had pisaddeared.

Love that one ?

We were out for a buffet meal, and I said that I hadn’t seen the strawberries one of the grandsons was eating. “Didn’t you have a grown-up to help you, Nanna?”, he replied.

Another grandson announced that when I died he’d buy me a bench with a memorial plaque on it, like the ones we’d seen in the park. Then he’d like me to be frozen so I could stand next to it, and he could come and talk to me every day.

My son at around 6 (who is now almost 42) dipped his biscuit in his tea. The end broke off and he called out quick mum my biscuit’s drowning!
My grandson called grass hoppers grassmoppers. He also called custard custmard which we all still say. And orange was always ojam.

My two yr old granddaughter was given a free book about a star that fell to earth,at the library last month. When we got home I said shall I read your new book to you. ‘ No Nana I’ll read it, once on a time there was a star’ she then sang twinkle twinkle little star all through whilst turning the pages. When she finished singing she said The End and shut the book.

My eldest 11 yr old grandaughter ( specal needs) atm keeps wanting to see her great grandparents on her daddy's side.
She told them that she wanted to see them because they won't be around much longer !!! They were able to laugh it off because they are still in their 70s.
However, she wanted to come with us to see my mum ( her Great nana) last weekend, 2 hrs away. My mum is 92. We warned her not to say a word about why she wanted to come with us !!!

When my oldest grandson was about 3 years old, he asked me for something and I asked him where his manners were, meaning a please. His eyes scoured the room, then he looked down at his feet and said ‘are they in my shoes granny’. My heart just melted!

A tiny girl of my acquaintance was handed a cake; a short silence followed and her mother said 'What do you say?' She took a deep breath and announced 'Please - thank you - good girl'.

Another one he came out with was ‘I canna eat that granny, it’s hairy mouldy’ when he didn’t like what was on his plate. Don’t know where he picked that one up lol, but I promise we never fed him hairy mouldy food!

The first time I served up broccoli he asked his mum ‘why is granny giving me trees to eat’.

My 6yr old grandson said he’d learnt the word ‘hideous’ and what it meant. Jokingly I said “Don’t ever tell a girlfriend she looks that buddy!” Loooooong pause, then “ But Nan , what do I say if she does?”

I was in a toilet at the supermarket one day and from the cubicle next to me a little girls voice said 'mummy did you do a wee and a poo?' to which the reply was a quiet yes. Then in a loud voice the child said ' oh you are a good girl mummy!'
I decided to spare the woman's blushes and waited till they'd left the bathroom before I came out.

Ha, I've enjoyed reading these. My favourite things this week from my Grandchildren are - We took our 3 yr old Grandaughter to a farm and stopped for a rest on a bench. We had been looking at the bluebells. Daffodils etc. After a few minutes she said "Granny, when will the bluebells ding?"
Today my daughter overheard our 7yr old Grandson chatting with his friend:
Friend - so, why are you supporting Ukraine?
Grandson - um, because they're being annihilated
Friend - I am just because I like the colours of their flag

I used to have a stoma, grandson knew all about it and I had explained to him how it worked. He announced in the supermarket in a very loud voice, my granny doesn't poo in the toilet she just goes in a bag while she's watching tv!

I was listening to my grandchildren having a very in depth conversation after school. One says: "nobody is perfect, there was only one person who was perfect on earth, can you please tell me who who that was?"
After some deep thought the other replies. “Was it uncle D……? Grandchild 1 says, "no, it was Jesus! Uncle D…… isn't perfect! ".
uncle D….. looks like the grandchildren had rather high expectations of you!!

One of mine, now a Dad himself, asked aged 7, “is it true that old ladies like you don’t understand computers because you Think you don’t “
Actually, I was computer literate having worked with them since the 70’s. But now I’m long retired, spend time each month teaching basic computer skills to youngsters in their 60’s and guess what? I always start a new class off by saying “ You won’t understand computers unless you stop thinking you won’t understand them”
The grandson who said it to me, thinks it hilarious.

I make Flapjacks with my granddaughter. We'll say to her younger brother, " Do you want a flapjack?" One day he came in and said, "Can I have a flap please?" It dawned on me as his name is Jack he thinks of them as "flaps"! He's older now but we sometimes call them "flaps".

My 5 year old GD told her mum whose father just turned 93 that he had done well to last this long. I wonder does she think the same about me. I am 72.

When youngest son was little he called sausages, sodigers. He’s now 26 and a butcher by trade, would you believe, but at home we still call them sodigers!
His brother when aged about 5 was complaining that his foot had gone fizzy which I thought was an excellent way to describe pins and needles

When my son was young he said a minor swear word. I asked 'where did you get that word from' he said 'from out of my throat'.

A niece of barely 2 once really made us laugh. She was strapped in at the back while my sister reversed the car down the drive. As she waited to see all was clear before backing into the road, niece piped up, ‘OK left!’

And a dd of just a little over 3 was once talking absolutely non stop in my parents’ car after they’d picked us up from Heathrow.

At one point my mother turned round and asked her, ‘Where do you get all your talking from?’

Dd thought for a second before replying, ‘From my mouf!’

I was in mcdonalds with my grandaughter and she couldn't get the lid off a bottle of juice....I tried but couldn't get it either....I said to her I'd ask the man at the next table to open it....She replied......No granny I will never need a man to do anything for me.....she tried again and opened it....Bye she way she is 11.....
