For our daughters 5th birthday
we bought her a rabbit.
We couldn’t help laughing when on the way she announced “the rabbit’s name is Sparingly.”
“How do you know?” I asked.
“Look” she responded
“It says “feed sparingly 3 times daily.”
Seven rabbits
Teacher: If I give you two rabbits and two rabbits and another two rabbits, how many rabbits have you got?
Paddy: Seven.
Teacher: No, listen carefully again! If I give you two rabbits and two rabbits and another two rabbits, how many rabbits have you got?
Paddy: Seven.
Teacher: Let’s try this another way! If I give you two apples and two apples and another two apples, how many apples have you got?
Paddy: Six.
Teacher: Good. Now if I give you two rabbits and two rabbits and another two rabbits, how many rabbits have you got?
Paddy: Seven.
Teacher: How on earth do you work out that three lots of two rabbits is seven?
Paddy: I’ve already got one rabbit at home.
A grandmother sent her grandson a shirt for his birthday.
The only trouble was that he had a size 14 neck and the shirt was size 12.
When the grandson sent a thank you note, he wrote, “Dear Grandma. Thanks a lot for the shirt. I’d write more, but I’m all choked up.”
