Children have a unique way of speaking their minds and saying things that often take us by surprise. Their honesty and openness can be both refreshing and entertaining. Let’s take a look at some of the funny and heartwarming responses from children that are sure to put a smile on your face.
1. A Picture of God
A kindergarten teacher was observing her students as they were drawing. She came across a little girl who was working diligently on her artwork. Curious, the teacher asked the girl what she was drawing.
The girl confidently replied, “I’m drawing a picture of God.”
The teacher, taken aback, said, “But no one knows what God looks like.”
Without missing a beat or looking up from her drawing, the girl responded, “They will in a minute.”
2. Whales and Jonah
In a classroom discussion about whales, a little girl expressed her belief that a whale could swallow a human. The teacher disagreed, stating that it was physically impossible.
Undeterred, the girl confidently said, “When I get to heaven, I will ask Jonah.”
The teacher, slightly irritated, asked, “What if Jonah went to hell?”
The little girl calmly replied, “Then you ask him.”
3. The Ten Commandments
During a Sunday school lesson on the Ten Commandments, a teacher asked the children if there was a commandment that taught them how to treat their siblings.
Quick as a whip, a young boy (the oldest of a family) answered, “Thou shall not kill.”
4. White Hairs
A little girl sat watching her mother do the dishes, noticing strands of white hair among her brunette locks. Curiosity got the better of her, and she asked, “Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?”
Her mother explained, “Well, every time you do something wrong and make me sad or cry, one of my hairs turns white.”
After pondering this revelation, the little girl questioned, “Momma, how come all of grandma’s hairs are white?”
5. Circulation of Blood
A teacher was explaining the circulation of blood to his students. Trying to make it easier to understand, he said, “If I stood on my head, the blood would rush to it, and I would turn red in the face.”
The class nodded in agreement.
Curiously, a student named Bobby interjected, “Because your feet aren’t empty!”
6. God is Watching
During lunchtime at a Christian school, the children were lined up in the cafeteria. At the head of the table, there was a pile of apples with a note that said, “Take only one, God is watching.”
At the other end of the table, there was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. One clever boy wrote his own note and placed it next to the cookies, saying, “Take all you want, God is watching the apples.”
Children’s innocent and humorous responses remind us of the simple joys in life. Their honest and unfiltered perspectives are a constant source of laughter and love.
