A second grader came home from school one afternoon, eager to share what she had learned. “Mom, guess what?” she said excitedly. “We learned how to make babies today!” Her mother, trying to stay composed, asked, “Really? How does that work?”
The girl replied with a serious tone, “It’s simple. You just change ‘y’ to ‘i’ and add ‘es’.” Her mom couldn’t help but laugh when she realized her daughter was talking about spelling rules, not the facts of life. The little girl had learned how to make words plural, like turning “baby” into “babies.”
It was a classic example of how kids can unintentionally create hilarious moments. The mom was relieved that her daughter’s “baby-making” lesson was just about grammar and not something more complicated. This funny mix-up became a story the family would treasure for years.
