Funny answers from children – that’s how this fun game that has recently become a social media sensation in France begins. Whether you’re looking for a way to entertain your kids on a rainy afternoon or just looking for something light-hearted to brighten up the day, this little parent-child quiz is a great idea.
Children often have a unique and unexpected way of seeing the world, and their answers can often make us smile, or even burst out laughing. As a parent in France, it is also a great opportunity to preserve these precious moments by writing them down in a notebook or keeping them for later in a "memory jar".
Ask Your Toddler These 15 Questions
I recently tried this quiz with my three-year-old son, Louis. Like many children his age, his answers were sometimes surprising, often funny, and always sincere. Even though he is a little behind in speech development and may be autistic, he had a blast answering these questions.
1. If you won a million euros, what would you buy?
“Dinosaurs!”
Ah, dinosaurs, an obsession shared by many children. This answer reminds me that no matter how much money is involved, the interests of toddlers often remain simple and constant.
2. How long does it take to get to America?
“America… TOAST MOM!”
Maybe he confused it with his favorite breakfast, but that answer made my day!
3. What does mom always say?
“Mommy boobs! Mommy poops, yuck!”
(I promise I never say that to Louis… but hey, his perception of things is what it is!)
4. What job would you like to do when you grow up?
“ROOOOAAAAR DINO!”
It seems that the passion for dinosaurs has no age limits!
5. What is the capital of France?
(No response, he just started slapping his butt.)
6. Where do babies come from?
(He points to YouTube… where he watches a lot of baby videos!)
7. At what age do you become an adult?
“Daddy finger, daddy finger, wah gah goo! Eeeeeeeeeeeep. Blrmphrph.”
It seems that children's music has taken over the issue.
8. If you could change one family rule, what would it be?
"BB-Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee."
A cryptic answer, but so funny in its execution!
9. If you could be a superhero, what superpower would you have?
"Spiderman! Iron Man!"
Superheroes are a great source of inspiration for little ones, and their fascinating powers always captivate them.
10. What would you do to save the planet?
(No response, he just stared at me while patting his belly.)
11. If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
“Toast!”
Simple and effective, as always.
12. How much does it cost to buy a house?
(He just understood the word "house" and then went to the window to greet all the neighboring houses.)
13. Why should we be kind to others?
(He started giving me “nice hands” by stroking my face and saying “oooooh mommy”!)
14. What does love mean to you?
"Fart!"
Ah, childish humor at its best!
15. What are you afraid of?
"Raaaaaaaawr!"
Even the roar of a dinosaur can be scary, even if it comes from itself.
