Kids are perceptive. They call things like they see them, and their minds are creative and not inhibited by the worries over whether they’re right, wrong, or whether or not people will laugh at them.
Which is why kids like these 12 should be allowed to name (and re-name) whatever they like – we would all live in a more creative, evocative world if they did!
12. It is delicious on toast.
And anything else you want to spread it on.
My 3yo calls guacamole green butter. I think that’s what we should all call it now

11. Yeah, why do only arms get sleeves?
Why do we make everything so difficult?
4 YO calls pants, “long-sleeve shorts”

10. They had to go with “hookers.”
Plain “hooks” just wouldn’t do I suppose.
My kid calls those little ornament hangers 'Christmas Hookers' and I have no plans on telling him differently

9. I can’t wait until he says that in public.
It’s going to be beautiful.
My 3-year-old calls corn on the cob porn on the cop and I will never correct him.

8. No one in their right mind would ever skip a bonus round.
I approve this message.

7. And everybody loves those.
It’s the perfect two things to conflate.
My 3-year-old calls corn on the cob porn on the cop and I will never correct him.

6. Attention, ladies everywhere.
We’ll all be referring to our lady bits this way from now on.
My kid calls dinosaurs vaginasaurs. I don't know what else to say about that.

5. So, they’re not part of her legs?
I’m trying to figure this one out.
*dying laughing* My daughter…calls…her thighs….LEG HOLDERS.

4. It makes such poetic sense.
Their little minds!
When my daughter was little she called her memory her remembery. It will always be that to us.

3. That word is too big for his little ears!
Just call them delicious next time.
We had enchiladas for dinner
Or as my 6 year old calls them, chickenladders 🤷🏻♂️

2. Same here.
Even though no one in their right mind would want an alligator ride!
My daughter called them “alligators.” To this day we still ride the alligator!

1. Charging them up to be delicious.
What if they injected butter and salt into the inside ooooooo.
My daughter calls corn on the cob holders “corn chargers” and I think we should just let 2 year olds name everything from now on.

I’m just in love with some of these!
