15 kids who took instructions a bit too literally
Kids can be awfully cheeky when they want to, and while occasionally it gets them into trouble, most of the time it simply makes us giggle. Whether it’s creatively completing their homework or finding silly ways to follow their parents’ orders, these kids sure know how to take instructions seriously.
- “Not exactly what I had in mind when I told my son it was too nice out to play games inside.”
- “Took my son to a modern art museum and told him that he needs to really think about the art and what they are trying to say. I am not sure, but I think I have a smartass on my hands.”
- “My friend's daughter taking the instructions literally.”
- “This isn't exactly what we meant when we told him that he could look up puppy training tips on YouTube.”
- “We told our three-year-old that new year’s is special because you get to toast to a new year. A few hours later she said, ‘are we gonna make toast now?!’ and thus a new year’s day tradition was born.”
- “My kid said I gave her too many grapes. I said just eat half of them.”
- “Toddler was asked to feed the cat.”
- “Bring a fish to school day.”
- “One of them finally cracked the code.”
- “When your sister uses deodorant for the first time and gets the ruler out because ‘it's got to be 15cm away’.”
