Kids using ‘big people’ words

A group of prep students were trying to become accustomed to the year 1. The biggest hurdle that the class faced was that the teacher insisted on no baby talk. “You need to use ‘big people’ words,” she’d always remind them.

When the class day began, the teacher asked Chris what he had done over the weekend.

“I went to visit my Nana,” Chris told her.

“No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use big people words!” She moved on and asked Mitchell what he had done the previous weekend.

“I took a ride on a choo-choo,” Mitchell said.

The teacher replied, “No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. Use big people words.” She then asked Bobby about his weekend activities.

“I read a book,” he told her.

“That’s WONDERFUL!” the teacher said. “What book did you read?”

Bobby thought about it, then puffed out his little chest with great pride and said “Winnie the Faeces!”
