50 Of The Most Hilarious Things Kids Ever Said That Deserved To Be Shared Online (New Pics)
Interview“Children say the darndest things!” People like to exclaim, but ultimately they are right. Young children in particular tend to not have an agenda and will unflinchingly share their honest opinions. The results tend to be equally as funny as thought-provoking.
The “Live From Snack Time” page shares all the hilarious, poignant, and wholesome things young kids sometimes say. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorite examples, and share your thoughts in the comments section. We got in touch with the people behind the page to learn more.

True statement. We all do things to annoy or sometimes hurt the people we love. Sometimes we aren't loveable. Sometimes we aren't likeable.
In psychology there's this concept it's called unconditional appreciation. You respect everyone's needs and appreciate them as human beings, no matter what they did and what your feel for them, but you can and have to still allow your feelings exist behind the wall of unconditional appreciation. That way, you can deal fairly and helpfully even with the worst people without forgetting what they did and making excuses or only thinking about what they did and not giving them proper therapy. And that child summed that up perfectly. You can indeed love and/or appreciate someone, even when it's someone you don't like, you still can respect and appreciate them, but you don't have to like them or agree with them. Sometimes someone does something bad, but the consequences need to be reasonable. You can't let your anger and annoyance rule and punish them forever. You have to still treat them with respect and fairness while dealing out proper consequences or you're not better than them.
Healthy food stomachs are incredibly shallow. Unhealthy food stomachs are bottomless pits.
Who names their child anonymous? I swear these names just keep getting worse. /j
I used to say the same thing. I insisted I had 2 stomachs and that which stomach the food went to depended on which side of my mouth I chewed each bite on.
Bored Panda got in touch with Alyssa and Greg, the folks behind "Live from Snack Time" and they were kind enough to answer some of our questions. Naturally, we wanted to hear how they came up with the idea for this page.
"Live From Snack Time started from my classroom in 2015. I am a teacher in NYC and my students had such brilliant and interesting questions. Kids have such an incredible way of understanding the world. It all began as a Twitter account. Soon after that my Co-Founder and friend from college, Greg suggested we bring it to Instagram. It has been a success ever since! We receive submissions from all over the world from parents, teachers, caregivers, aunts and uncles, pretty much everyone!"
Bed food ever discovered/invented: pasta, bread, and potatoes.
I don't think pasta would make a good bed food. It does get messy, especially with a young child.
Load More Replies...Adorable. That's the way it should be. Thankfully, I have that with my husband.
As a former retail worker, that’s a better holiday than the actual one, and I am going to call it Poop Friday from now on.
Since 2015, the page has exploded in popularity, with thousands and thousands of followers and even shoutouts by celebrities. So we wanted to hear it's creators take on why the content is so popular. "The feedback that we get about the account is that it’s very relatable," they shared with Bored Panda.
I don't think a 6 yr old should know the f word. Just my opinion but I hate when people swear in front of little kids especially when it's their parents.
It is possible the F word you are thinking of and the F word the 6 year old is thinking of are not the same word beginning with F. My sweet naive child came home offended that one of his class mates kept saying, "The C word" in class, and it turned out he meant c**p.
Load More Replies..."We all have important kids in our lives, we were all once a kid trying to navigate life. I think another part of it is that you can always count on us to provide light, wholesome, positive content. We all need that daily, the internet can be an ugly place," they added, noting how the content is generally wholesome.
use to give my children one personal day a year from school
Load More Replies...They very well can have such vocabulary. It depends on how they are spoken to and what language they generally hear around them. Since both my bf and I hate baby-talking we have always just used adult words and sentences (it's a train, folks. Not a choo choo-train). And when our kids ask about stuff, we try to explain as accurately (but age-apropriate) as we can. Including info about death, how digestion works, war, and monsters of different kinds. We also google stuff a lot so we can give correct info and (sometimes) show pictures or videos that are relevant to the topic we're talking about. :)
Load More Replies...A touch of reality for you, Anonymous. Everybody wants those days but seldom gets them.
That's a quote from The Lorax, so I think he got it from there.
Load More Replies...Alyssa and Greg also shared their thoughts on why kids are such geniuses at hilarious comments. "I think what makes the quotes so wholesome and funny is that it’s unfiltered, raw, and honest. For better or for worse, kids have no filter. It feels so real."
I taught my kids to call it "Stinky Feet" cause that's what it smells like lol
With grocery prices bringing a bag of Chips close to $7 bucks, this is a valid complaint
Most of the people I babysit for allow or even encourage me to eat small amounts of their food
Load More Replies...Just don't baby sit for that one family that had a conniption fit over the poor babysitter sharing in 2 slices of pizza and a breadstick
I babysat for people with gross fridges when I was a kid, so although I was told I could help myself, when I'd look in there I'd decide no thank you and just not eat until I could go home again. Some people didn't even pay me after all, even one that stayed out hours after she said she'd be home. I ended up quitting babysitting in my early teens, even though i was pretty good at it.

I think 3 days is a fair compromise I could live with for the rest of my working life...
That is so funny… When I was little, I thought that when I would become a grown-up, I would have the best time just eating all the fruit roll ups that I wanted
We had the most amazing real fruit leather fresh at the grocery store nearby that was cheaper than fruit rollups and my life will never be okay until I can get more. Crunchy lil strawberry seeds. Om nom nom. I'd take a fruit rollup rn but honestly it just won't hit right.
Load More Replies...Don't worry little man I'll buy you cashews and a purse to put them in! I want one too!
This is probably my favorite question. The kid is really trying to relate, and I'm dying over the association between toys and dishes.
Every morning forced out of our cocoons before we've fully morphed into humans. No wonder we're miserable
Reminds me of my mid-kid who keeps telling me that she wants to move in nextdoor when she's a grown-up. Lol. I tell her that when that time comes she will very likely just want to move far away from mom and dad. The look in her eyes goes from normal to really confused. I think she can't understand how anybody would not want to live as close to their parents as possible. She doesn't know that I'm one of those 'kids' that want to love as far away from my parents as possible. Lol.
When my grandson was about 4yo, we took him with us to an agricultural show. We had been walking around, seeing the animals etc., and were feeling peckish, so looked for a food stall. My grandson says to me, "Gran, can we find somewhere to sit. My knees are tired and telling me to sit down." I've never forgotten that. He's now a young, married man.
A 2 year old can't say a sentence like this. At least not this clearly.
Yes they can. My nephew didn't like my mum calling him a monkey. He said "youre going to make me sad!" Mum said why. He said "you hurt my feelings!!"
Load More Replies...Good answer lol I hated being called cute as a kid. Now that I'm in my 30s though, I love being called cute 😆
Said every four week old kitten and puppy ever, attempting to hunt the first time. Terrible, when the toy wins.
I always wondered why you couldn't become a grandma before becoming a parent. I think it would make you a better parent.
my name is lillian and if i had common sense when i was 5 i would probaly be thinking the same thing!
Respect for kids is more of a priority than respect for people who say that “Respect [for kids] is not a priority”. 👍
Load More Replies...Oh dear, if she knew how close to a possible reality this is...
When my daughter was tiny I left her with my dad and brother to go shopping with my mom. Got home to find dad and brother working in the back yard with the baby sitting in the rabbit hutch.
Why are they called shorts and pants? It should either be shorts and longs, or pants and some other word
Pants are long by default and short pants was shortened to just shorts.
Load More Replies...Q- Do fish pee? If they pee, does that mean they swim in their own pee? Does that mean I swim in fish pee?!?! A: Yes.
My daughter had an imaginary dog and over the years the dog got regular visits from its large imaginary extended family. Miss ya Buster!
Depends, are they nice cousins? Mine weren't, wish I coulda sold mine! 😆
Load More Replies...I had a lot of cousins. I just had to wait until a certain family of cousins turned into absolute a******s. Skipped my dad's memorial - their uncle who took them boating, water skiing, tubing, snow skiing, and several times to amusement parks. So now, I have 5 less cousins. But they are so self centered, I look forward to the time they come to me for legal help or my grandmother's heirlooms (she lived with us for 20 years).
I had 23 first cousins, and a ton of first cousins once removed (kids of the older first cousins). And I've heard of larger families so I'm not trying to set a bar.
This is pretty much how I manoeuvre my way through my day to day life as an adult honestly!
A nap in the morning - all morning, and a nap in the afternoon - all afternoon.
Some of us have never slept well all night, even as children, and have naturally broken our sleeping into one or two naps a day and we sleep not as long as others at night.
Load More Replies...What kind of little kids are there now adays? All the little kids I'm around don't say things like this
They do what kids have always done, mimic the adults around them. If their parents talk about so and so always causing drama or similar, they will incorporate that into their speech and thought patterns.
Load More Replies...It's useful to be able to pinpoint exactly when things started to go wrong.
It's only 2 hours into my 9 hours work day and I feel this in my soul.
And only 20 minutes have gone by since Naomi woke up.. Poor kid figured out adulting at such a young age.
Once, as a preschooler, I got bored at home, so I sat quietly at the dining room table daydreaming. After a while I realized that I wasn't grounded, so why the 'time out?' I found something else to do and wondered why I gave myself a nothing moment. If only someone had seen me being still...
My 4yo niece says all sorts of things like that. A lot of kids now watch youtube, and some Nickelodeon or Disney live action kid shows are pretty sarcastic too.
Load More Replies...Anytime. Hugs are always available. Except when I'm on the toilet. Or sleeping. Or driving. Or operating heavy equipment.
Ironically, Thomas would be revealed as having a severe peanut allergy.
I bet a parent has asked repeatedly, "What's your deal?" when she's acted up.
Noooo!! There are so many other great kinds of cheese!! Ur missing out!! :C :C :C :C :C
My niece, when she was 3, she would always declare she didn't like cheese. We had to carefully call pizza cheese 'pizza skin' so she wouldn't decide to stop eating it because pizza was one at least semi-nutritious thing she wasn't picky about. Now she's 4 and knows it's pizza cheese and last week she finally decided to try string cheese and she loves it! I think eventually she will try more over time.
Load More Replies...As an adult, it's infuriating that no one asks me what my favorite planet is.
I question the validity of several of these - Westopher, 1 month old
My youngest told me you can't mess with sea turtles cause they're on the urge of distinction.
My niece and nephew say so many funny things, as funny as these and funnier, but I'm so busy and by the end of the day I'm struggling so hard to remember what it was that they said, only recalling how funny it was. I do however remember a few years ago when my nephew was 3 and couldn't say stick and it would sound like d**k. He'd find a stick at the park and then keep loudly talking about how much he loved his stick, how happy he was to have his stick, how he loved to play with his stick, on and on. One day we were downtown and he found a stick and he did the same thing until I finally told him what it sounded like he was talking about. He looked a little shocked, then he squealed and laughed and didn't say it anymore. Until next time we went to the park and he'd totally forgotten. 😹🤦🏻♀️
When my youngest sister was about five years old, she wondered why Shirley, Goodness and Mercy were going to be following her all the days of her life.
