She had twenty-five students in her class and she presented each child in her class the first half of a proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading these keep in mind that these are first graders..... 6-year olds.

Children's sermon:
One Easter Sunday morning as the minister was preaching the children's sermon; he reached into his bag of props and pulled out an egg. He pointed at the egg and asked the children, "What's in here?" "I know!" a little boy exclaimed. "Pantyhose!"

Grandma's age:
Little Johnny asked his grandma how old she was. Grandma answered, "39 and holding." Johnny thought for a moment, and then said, "And how old would you be if you let go?"

Prayers:

Turn-About is Fair:
When my three-year-old son opened the birthday gift from his grandmother, he discovered a water pistol. He squealed with delight and headed for the nearest sink. I was not so pleased. I turned to my mother and said, "I'm surprised at you. Don't you remember how we used to drive you crazy with water guns?" My mother smiled and replied..."Oh, I remember."

Bic Ballpoint Pen chandelier

“It seems like you can make a beautiful chandelier out of just about anything these days - and it makes us wonder why society stood by the monotony of hanging crystal pendants for so long. These recycled bic pen chandeliers by En Pieza look just as classy (if not classier), refract light in the most gorgeous way, AND are far more creative and eco-friendly than their staid crystal counterparts. What more could you ask for in a chandelier?”

Just check out the price!!! (and the picture … it really is impressive!)
