Art Linkletter used to have a show on TV in the 50's called: Kids Say The Darnest Things...... Great show

My four year old son and I were driving by a hospital, and I said to him: "Look there's where your mom's father practices medicine".......
he replied," he doesn't practice dad, he does it for real".........LOL

My grandson and I, when he was about five, would watch dinosaur train......a disney? show about dinosaurs. The guy who ran the show made some statement about dinosaurs and my grandson said "that's actually a hypothesis"..............(His mother is a biologist and scientist) I thought I would call him on using that word and I asked him if he knew what a hypothesis meant. He said sure, it means a theory, but it has to be proven by running a lot of scientific experiments.

LOL

I think kids and animals are a lot smarter than we think......
