I honestly think it's true. The kids are funnier around the holidays. My kinders have been on FIRE lately. Seriously hilarious. A little sampling for your reading pleasure:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Student 1: "I love Santa."
Student 2: "Me too."
Student 1: "I love Santa because he's the nicest guy ever."
Student 2: "Yeah because he leaves everybody lots of presents."
Student 1: "Yeah, but only if you're good. If you're bad, you get coal. And coal is just another word for poop."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mrs. A: "I'm going to Jamaica to be in Miss Mayhan's wedding. I get to be in her wedding. I'm going to wear a pretty dress and stand next to her while she's getting married in her beautiful white dress."
Student: "Oh! I get it. You're going to be that guy up front with the book."
Ha ha! Nope, not that part, buddy.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mrs. A: "This movie (Rudolph) is really special to me. It's a very old movie -- I even watched it when I was a little girl at Christmas!"
Student: "You mean like at the first Christmas? Like when Jesus was born?"
Mrs. A: "Nope... I'm not that old."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And, last but not least, I am not proud of myself, but I just pulled out my cell phone to call Santa. Yep, it happened. But... it WORKED!!! :)
haha love that you "called santa." awesome idea.
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree about kids being funnier at Christmas. One of my students has a new baby sister (like 2 weeks old). This was a convo at lunch
Student A: My baby sister cries a lot... but she smells good.
Student B: Oh! Like nuggets and french fries?!
Not quite kid, but good try.
