Goldfish (Photo credit: mattwitmer)
To motivate my kindergarteners toward finishing a task, I showed them the “flavor blasted” goldfish snacks I brought for them as a prize. Clearly misinterpreting the contents of the special treat, one student raised his hand and asked, “What are flaming bastard goldfish?”

I love it! I’m always tickled to read how little ones read things, thanks for sharing that.
Yes, that story seriously cracked me up. Kind of makes me wonder what words he’s hearing at home.
I cant believe a k.g. said that.
I know. Crazy, right?
Little scary.
Kids say the funniest things. I am a teacher and one thing I tell my student’s parents is that if they promise to not believe everything they say about me, I promise not to believe everything their kids say about them. You will not believe what kids think is ok to share!
Ha! That’s a great line.
Oooh, way too funny! I hope you keep a journal of those sayings
No, I keep a blog.
Oh my!
Indeed. Maybe someone should try selling the new flavor idea to Pepperidge Farms!
Actually tearful I’m laughing so hard. Don’t know why exactly, but this one hit my funny bone hard! I think it’s the combo of the misunderstanding and your great title.
I’m so glad!
