Quotes from my class

I was looking through an old notebook from work in which I write funny and cute things the kids say. Here are a few of the gems:

"I'm so tired I could eat a whole elephant."

"It rained puddles!"

"I'm starving like a dude."

"Dinosaurs can't swim guys. But they can go in boats."

"Fee fi fo fum, I smell English muffins."

"I have a best friend named Claire. She's a girl, not a store."

"The T-Rex won't eat me. He makes me food. He doesn't eat my toys at night. He makes me pizza. And salad."

"You should always pet a dinosaur, unless they bite."

One child asked us "did you know my bed could be a sofa?" and another kid replied "did you now my bed could be a violin?"

"You never talk to strangers, like wolves."

"I'm a big fan of dragons, you know."

"Life's not fair. Life gets whatever it wants. Life's life."

"I told him I could find it. One time I ate a carrot that rabbits eat."

When asked what grandpas do, one kid relied "snore!"

And one from today, in honor of Presidents' Day:

I asked "do you want to be president?" and got this: "yes, I want to have that job so I can get money. I'm gonna be rich, rich, rich! I'd buy bubble gum, silly bandz, popsicles, and new shoes."

And while I'm talking about work, here's a picture of our dragon we made for the Chinese New Year parade.
