Ever been to Hucky-Tucky?

Oh the things kindergarteners say! Today I subbed in an afternoon kinder class at a south Salem school. While working with a group of about 5 or 6 kiddos, we were talking about brothers and sisters. One boy told me he had brothers and sisters in India and that he went there last summer. Most of the rest of their stories were fairly typical. I told them my brother lived in California. This sparked many stories about California and how it's a "long way away" and how they slept in the car on the way there. Then, another girl told me that she had a sister in Hucky-Tucky (or was it Yucky-Tucky? can't remember) and that she used to live there too. I said, "Hucky-Tucky? Where's that?" She didn't know really. "Is it far away?" I asked. She said yes. So I asked, "Do you mean Kentucky?" "Oh yeah! Kentucky. Yeah, that's what I mean." she replied.

Just too cute! :)

Oh! And I just remembered another story from the day. One boy showed up in the morning with his mother, who informed us that he'd decided to spray himself with a little perfume on his way out the door. Well, after she left and the boy took his coat off her just REEKED of perfume! The assistant ended up taking him to the office to get a new shirt to wear!
