Does she sing What Does the Fox Say? I'm just imagining a 4 year old running around singing "Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!" It's exactly what she does! Oh my, that's really adorable! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't drive you insane.

I don't have kids and also don't want kids, but I thought I'd share some of the stuff I said when I was a kid.
(idk how old I was here, def younger then 10)me: I want something to drink! mom: That's called "Please" me: Thank you. --- In the Zoo of Barcelona, at the giraffes compound: me: *about the young giraffes* These are the little ones, the big ones are bigger. <-- this is now a running gag

Also not a parent and also no plans of getting kids anytime soon, but I do have some 'moments' from back when I was a kid. Not sure if it was me or my brother, but one of us could never properly pronounce/remember "harmonica bus" (which is dutch for 'articulated bus'). Instead we pronounced it as "macaroni bus" (and yes, it's exactly what it sounds in english too!)
My dad was at the ATM to get some (large amounts of) money and I was staring at him. When I saw the amounts of cash I exclaimed in a really loud voice: " WOOOOW THAT'S A LOT OF MONE-- *muffled noises*" My dad immediately pressed his hand against my mouth to silence me.
I was (/still am) obsessed with deers as a kid, especially the red deer. When driving several hours to our holiday destination we used to play games in the car to pass the time. One of those games (I forgot the name) you had to imagine something, someone, somewhere in your head and then the others had to guess what you were thinking about by asking you yes/no questions. Literally every time I was thinking of a red deer. Every. Single. Time.
As a kid I wasn't allowed with 'violent' toys (violent as in... pokemon, digimon, yu-gi-oh etc.). My parents thought that violent cartoons, toys and the evil 'video games' [frightened parent noises] made me violent as well. But apparently I circumvented that rule by becoming friends with a bunch of boys at school and then invite myself over to their place to play with their toys and completely ignore the poor kid himself.
Speaking of violent video games... "Mom, can I have Warcraft 3?" (I was 6 years old)

This thread is full of good stuff. My 19 mo old is obsessed with cell phones. Husband's fault, he started playing Barney (ugh) videos for her a few months ago. She's a phone theif now. Soon as he gets up she goes searching for it, grabs it, and darts to wherever I am. If he sees her and says "Give me that back" she starts shrieking and shaking her head. It's hilarious. He tries to hide it from her and she always finds it. He made the mistake of teaching her how to unlock it too, so now when she gets it she just fiddles with it on her own. Luckily it's one of those indestructible models. I keep mine away from her. My older daughter (10 now), when she was little, would tell hubby all the time that he was "redickable". Her way of saying ridiculous. I loved it.

My three year old has hit the butt/pee/poo phase "mommy poo, daddy poo, food poo" etc. You get the idea... I'm ignoring it the best I can, I know it'll pass.

Whenever I'm on the phone while holding her, she'll reach up and try to grab it, I've hung up on several people while trying to wrestle my phone out of my infants hands. We even got her a toy phone but she knows it's not the same and will just go after mine again. She doesn't seem to show the same interest in my husband's phone though, he has an iPhone and I have a Samsung Galaxy; maybe she's a future android user.

When my daughter was 3 she walked into a lamp post on the way to nursery one day. I felt so awkward explaining that to the staff when we got there.
The first time she played Mass Effect 2, during Garrus' recruitment mission, when he takes the rocket to the face, I told her she'd messed it up and that Garrus was dead. She cried.
Did the same thing with Kaidan on Mars in ME3. She cried more. Yeah, yeah, I'm a horrible human being.

My daughter has been sick with a virus since Sunday. She typically sleeps in her crib but whenever she's not feeling well I let her sleep in bed with me since I'm too lazy to get out of bed repeatedly she likes being held and comforted. I never knew someone so tiny could take up so much room! My husband is traveling for work this week so I thought these sleeping arrangements wouldn't be too bad, but the past 3 days I've been waking up on the edge of the bed since she keeps kicking me and rolling into me, forcing me to the edge. I woke up this morning with her left foot on my forehead.

While I was talking to a sales person at the verizon store, shopping for a new phone, she was trying to take pictures of herself with one of the display phones. Then she let it hang on it's cord, and tried to take a picture of her (fully clothed,) butt.

Every time I have to reprimand my three year old, and she won't listen to me, she says "I'm gonna show you my butt!" and does exactly that.

When my eldest nieces went walking with us to our back yard where it's all woodland area, first thing out of the oldest's mouth is: IT'S AFRICA!
The name's stuck ever since.
My youngest nieces, a pair of twins, would nearly always cry at the sight of me because it meant their mom was leaving and I was babysitting. Didn't matter if it was just a visit, they thought the end times were near.
And then one day, one of them goes up to me during a visit and says, "I just like you!". And then she'd order her sister to give me a kiss.
I don't understand kids...
The hilarious part is that I can carry on normal conversations with said three year old and get her to help me keep her siblings in line. She'll actually try to calm her twin down by telling her to please stop crying.
As for me: when I was a baby, my brother used to mess with me by pretending to suck on the other end of the bottle I was feeding on and it drove me nuts because I was convinced he was stealing my milk.
For the longest time as a kid, I was certain rhubarb was supposed to be called "crowbar"

My parent's rule for playing outside after dark was that if it was too dark to read the street sign when you're standing in a certain spot, we had to go back home. The first big snowfall after they started letting us be outside alone also happened to be a full moon and the cloud cover had cleared up. It was plenty light enough to read the sign, so we didn't see anything wrong with staying out two hours after sunset.
My sisters have at least once tried to pull the "you can't punish us because you don't know which twin did it" thing. They're fraternal* twins. I'm not certain if they actually thought it would work, or if they were trying to be funny.
My father's brother is called Don, so he was known as "Uncle Dong". I didn't actually realize why my parents panicked whenever we said it in public until I was fifteen, so that must have made for some interesting conversations that strangers overheard.
The thing that finally drove my dad to buy a DVD player wasn't advancing technology or the limited movies coming out on VCR. It was the fact that my youngest brother shoved three pieces of buttered toast into the VCR player. This is also why, when I have kids, the door to my office is getting a lock that would keep out the Hulk and the key will be on my person at all times. I just know that if I leave them alone with my PC, they'll find some way to chew through the power cable or something.
*Except they aren't frats. There should be a word for that. Sororal? Damn, I'll be thinking about that all day now.

When my nephew was a toddler (he's 23 now), he used to "feed" the VCR because it was hungry. We found a half eaten peanut butter and jelly sandwich and 5 melted crayons in the VCR one day.
