7 reasons not to mess with children.
A little girl was
talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was
physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even
though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. The
little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a
human; it was physically impossible. The little girl said, "When
I get to heaven I will ask Jonah". The teacher asked, "What if
Jonah went to hell?" The little girl replied, "Then you ask him ".
A Kindergarten teacher
was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She
would occasionally walk around to see each child's work. As she
got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the
drawing was. The girl replied, "I'm drawing God."
The teacher paused and said, "But
no one knows what God looks like." Without missing a beat, or
looking up from her drawing, the girl replied, "They will in a minute."
A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten
Commandments with her five and six year olds.
After explaining the commandment to "honor" thy Father and thy Mother,
she asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our
brothers and sisters?" Without missing a beat one little boy (the
oldest of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."
One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do
the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother
had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her
brunette head. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are
some of your hairs white, Mom?" Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something
wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white." The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and
then said, "Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?"
The children had all
been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to
buy a copy of the group picture. "Just think how nice it will be
to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer,
she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the
teacher, she's dead."
A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the
blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, "Now, class, if I
stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I
would turn red in the face." "Yes," the class said. "Then
why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the
blood doesn't run into my feet?" A little fellow shouted, "Cause
your feet ain't empty."
The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a
Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a
large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple
tray: "Take only ONE. God is watching." Moving further
along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of
chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, "Take all you
want. God is watching the apples.
