Kids are curious about a lot of things. They are constantly learning from their environment. It may come to us as a surprise but they are highly observant of their surroundings. They have so many questions about different things and need answers. At certain times, they leave us speechless with the nature of their questions. They will ask the dumbest to the most sophisticated things, and honestly, sometimes we don’t have the answers.
This nature of children shouldn’t be something they get punished for rather parents should take every measure to help them and encourage them to ask more questions. Let your child explore new things and utter crazy stuff. Just enjoy the process as your child grows, you are going to miss this time. To give you a clearer picture, we have compiled some tweets from parents who have shared stories of their kids talking about the strangest things ever.
Check them out below and enjoy!
I was lifeguarding and a little boy threw his ball out of the water and his mom goes “maybe if you ask the pretty lifeguard she will grab the ball for you!” This kid looked me dead in the eye and goes “…..where’s the pretty one?” KIDS ARE RUTHLESS LMAO

“Do you think you’ll ever fall in love?”
“I don’t know. I think if she likes pancakes, then probably.”
I bought my son a book about bats and halfway through it he shouted out, “WHAT??? BATS ARE REAL?!?!” All this time he thought they were made up for Halloween like ghosts and witches

i ask my toddler what's in the box she's holding. "chaos!" she replies. "chaos! chaos!" i know she's trying to say "crayons," but it's not like she's wrong.

My daughter, who I grew from scratch in my own body, saw me wearing my new boots and said, "No. Hideous. Either they go, or I go."

Don't pressure me. I'm still deciding.
Kids are so unpredictable and you can’t help but ruffle their hair. Lift them up and give them a tight hug. Our kids in their innocence when they interact with us are teaching us how to love, and be happy as with time we’re so engrossed in our everyday life that we forget to enjoy the little moments. Moments of laughter, joy and love. Let’s just cherish these moments and make beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.

My 5 year old son just asked “what if we put a slice of turkey in the DVD player and it played a movie about the turkey’s whole life” and none of the parenting books I’ve read have prepared me for this question.
