The things kids say…..

A recent conversation whilst out shopping….

(Connected to some sea animals having suckers, as inspired by Squidward Tentacle in Spongebob Squarepants)

Me- “So does an Octopus and a limpet. Do you know what a limpet is?”

Son- “I don’t think so…”

Me- “You’ve seen them, they are quite small, shaped like this, have a hard shell and they cling on to rocks by a sort of sucker. Their sucker is so powerful that you have to kick them very hard to move them.”

Son- (after a short pause)”….or you could use a hammer….”

(Sound of trolley weaving across the car park whilst the parent is practically doubled up in laughter).
