Kidspeak


Kidspeak. Toddler talk. We parents get pretty good at deciphering our kids' muddled attempts to speak everyday English. Just today my son asked me when we could go visit cousin "Domino" (he meant Dominic). That got me thinking about a few memorable words and phrases that my two little people have unwittingly bungled (or improved upon, you decide).

Kidspeak is my favorite! My son, Niklaus calls fried egg sandwiches "Friday Sandwiches" because that's how he hears it...funny thing is, we usually have them on Fridays during lent...so he's right, they ARE "Friday sandwiches!"
