A child’s life can be one of such wonders. They don’t really know how anything works so everything feels possible. The laws of the material universe can bend and twist to their screwball plans and every day can be an adventure. Unfortunately, for the parents who have to follow in their wake, this can also involve bills, messes, and frequent facepalms.

Internet users shared the most confusing and hair-pulling examples of kids doing things they really shouldn’t have. We also reached out to Brenna Hassinger-Das, Assistant Professor of Psychology at Pace University-NYC to learn a bit more about children’s creativity. So scroll down and upvote the stories that made you feel happy it wasn’t your kid and comment if you have any tales of your own. If you want to see some more documented examples of children’s brilliant plans, click here and here.

Back in the 80's my sister convinced our elementary school she was sick FOR A MONTH! My mom was so mad when she found out, via a call from the school, that she wasn't allowed to come out of her room at all!

Kevin tried this and somehow pulled it off, when he called to book the hotel, remember? "Hello, this is Peter McCallister, the father, ..."? Why would a person say, he is "the father" without mentioning his kid coming over by himself?

    Omg this remind me of one of the funniest scenes in one of the funniest shows ever made. Klovn (Denmark) https://youtu.be/x8jBdfb5Ip0

    We asked Dr. Hassinger-Das why children need creativity for their self-development. “Creativity is the process of developing flexible thinking and coming up with new ideas and new uses for existing objects and materials. This process of exploration also helps children develop other critical skills. For example, as children use art materials like scissors and crayons, they also work on their fine motor skills. Devising new ways to use a favorite toy encourages children's problem-solving and development of executive functioning skills. Solving problems together also helps children foster social interactions and relationships.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    She also had some advice for parents trying to figure out how to introduce creativity into their children's lives. “Play is a great context for fostering creativity. Play allows children to exercise agency and explore new ideas within a familiar context. Parents can co-play with young children, using guided play techniques such as asking questions about what children are doing and helping to get them thinking about new concepts and ideas. With older children, parents can support their interests in art or games, from drawing comic book characters to playing creative video games like Minecraft.”

    Me, to my young daughter who had just cut the middle out of her bangs leaving long pieces on each side, "Erica Jane! Why did you do that?" Her, "It was in my eyes so I tut it." Can't argue with logic. She's 40yo now and has been "tutting" hair for 20.

    “I think the most important takeaway about creativity is it's more about the process than the outcome. The process of exploration and thinking differently about everyday experiences helps children to build a toolkit of ways to deal with problems later in life,” she added. All in all, the experiences shown in this article can be seen as learning moments, even if it costs a decent degree of frustration from the parents. At least they got a funny story out of it.

We took our stuffed animals and cut off their "hair" with kiddie scissors, then after we had the great idea to cut EACH OTHERS hair. Lets just say my mom wasn't thrilled, especially since my brother had SCHOOL PICTURE DAY in a few days(I basically snipped off all of his hair, and he cut me some bangs. He wore a hat in his school picture😂)

    Probably due to brain development being rather intense in early childhood and using a lot of energy. Looking at my three kids and seeing also other kids around me, most have a period while they are around 2-3, where they are eating butter with spoon. I didnt restrict my kids, but it stopped without any obvious reasons. Probably energy tanks got full again :)

    Many of these stories come from younger children, who are just old enough to walk and have some agency, but not yet old enough to wrap their heads around more abstract ideas. Behavioral researchers believe that at this stage in a kid’s life, they are not actually aware of ideas like betrayal or imagination. However, they are fully capable of, inaccurately, personifying inanimate objects. For example, if a child hits their head on a door by accident, they might describe the door as “bad.”

    Kid was just trying to Jedi Mind Trick 'em. 😉

    This stage, sometimes called the preoperational stage, normally lasts until the child is about seven years old. During this stage, they do not really understand how to see beyond their own point of view. This no doubt helps inform some of the attempts at deception in this list. Who could ever see past the masterly plan to disguise wrongdoing by saying “wasn’t me.”

    Sounds like something my family would do 😭✌️

    Before the age of seven, many kids also go through stages of magical thinking. In cases of grief or sadness, the child might believe that if they just think it didn’t happen hard enough, then any negative event would simply disappear. This logic and we are really stretching the meaning of the word here, applies to other things as well. So kids do really believe that by giving adults a cunning, alternative story for the evidence in front of them, i.e a missing cake, a half-eaten stick of butter, they will actually escape punishment.

    Honestly I'd say this now just to throw them off the trail

    On the flip side, these are all signs that the child has a working and active imagination. They will want to supplement their imagination with new information and details, and constantly ask parents about how and why things are how they are. This poses a bit of a challenge since often enough, adults don’t actually know how to explain things. Like do you actually know why the sky is blue? The short answer, to save you a quick Google search, is that air molecules ‘scatter’ and blue light has the shortest wavelengths. Careful with this answer, however, as a more perceptive child might start following up with more hard-to-answer inquiries about physics.

    If you're the youngest, ya just take it on the chin. That being said, when you grow-up you're stronger for it.

    Oh, I win the Stupid Prize: My Ma left me in the car while she ran into the department store. Bored, I leaned over and began chewing on the dash in our new (beloved!) car. Ma comes back, sees the dash, and is LIVID. Not wanting to get into trouble (she beat us for the most minor of transgressions), I thought it best to blame someone else and settled on my ill-behaved cousin Tommy. She’s wasn’t buying it. “It WAS Tommy, Ma! He was walking down the street, came in, and chewed the dashboard! I swear!” I got the beating when we arrived home. I still wince at my insisting he did this on a whim. Argh.

    hmm, perhaps a somewhat fast raccoon pilfered the peel, and when he realized that he couldn’t leave the scene quickly enough, he stashed it in the toilet bowl in a panic.

    Thank you for the explanation, Waddles. It's good to have a nice pig around.

    If I ask my son what he's doing and he says what he's doing than he's not getting in trouble. If he says "nothing" he was for sure doing something bad. Poor kid wonders how he always gets found out

    My father is an elementary school teacher. He says the first person to say it wasn't them is usually the guilty one.

    America's Funniest Home Videos had a tape of a little boy decorating the bathroom with his mommy's butterfly stickers (pads with wings).

    I got framed for several things in school. I also got ratted on. Come to think of it, I hated school prior to college...

    Why does your 4yo have easy access to a blade or scissors unsupervised?

    Anyone that's ever tried this will know how much force is needed to cut even a little bit into a tyre, certainly more than any 4-y-o is capable of.

    A 4 year old has the strength to cut through a tire? Maybe "cookie dunkin' goat f**k" did it and blamed the 4 year old?

    I once stuck some thumb tacks in the tires of a family whose kid was a bully. Didn't think that through, but anyway they saw me and told my parents. Thumb tacks can't pop a car tire, but I didn't know that and my parents told me I had poped the tire and had to pay for a new one. So I had to do chores until it was paid off. Taught me several valuable lessons like look for cameras before vandalizing someone's house, don't commit a crime you can't pay for, and how to deal with my kids if they ever try to vandalize anything!

    Might want to get her checked out. Slashing tires at 4. slashing throats at 14.
