A little girl was talking to her
teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically
impossible for a whale to swallow a
human because even though it was a
very large mammal its throat was very
small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was
swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that
a whale could not swallow a human; it
was physically impossible.
The little girl said, "When I get to
heaven I will ask Jonah".
The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went
to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask
him".
A Sunday school teacher was discussing
the Ten Commandments with her five and
six year olds.
After explaining the commandment
to "honour" thy Father and thy Mother,
she asked, "Is there a commandment
that teaches us how to treat our
brothers and sisters?"
Without missing a beat one little boy
(the oldest of a family)
answered, "Thou shall not kill."
One day a little girl was sitting and
watching her mother do the dishes at
the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed
that her mother had several strands of
white hair sticking out in contrast on
her brunette head.
She looked at her mother and
inquisitively asked, "Why are some of
your hairs white, Mom?"
Her mother replied, "Well, every time
that you do something wrong and make
me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs
turns white."
The little girl thought about this
revelation for a while and then
said, "Momma, how come ALL of
grandma's hairs are white?"
The children had all been
photographed, and the teacher was
trying to persuade them each to buy a
copy of the group picture.
"Just think how nice it will be to
look at it when you are all grown up
and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a
lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a
doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room
rang out, "And there's the teacher,
she's dead."
The children were lined up in the
cafeteria of a Catholic elementary
school for lunch. At the head of the
table was a large pile of apples. The
nun made a note, and posted on the
apple tray:
"Take only ONE . God is watching."
Moving further along the lunch line,
at the other end of the table was a
large pile of chocolate chip cookies.
A child had written a note, "Take all
you want. God is watching the apples."
A Kindergarten teacher was observing
her classroom of children while they
were drawing. She would occasionally
walk around to see each child's work.
As she got to one little girl who was
working diligently, she asked what the
drawing was.
The girl replied, "I'm drawing God."
The teacher paused and said, "But no
one knows what God looks like."
Without missing a beat, or looking up
from her drawing, the girl
replied, "They will in a minute."
