This thread might work, over the years, including this morning, I have heard kids say the Darndest things!
1) Many Moons ago, I worked with a youth group for the mine, we went on a day trip along the north bank of the Orange River, driving passed various mining operations. The kids in my care were between the ages of 8-13.
As we drove past a water pump on a floating platform on the river, a drum of diesel had spilt onto the surface of the slow moving water..... making that multi colour effect... when a kid shouted, "Look! Look! Everyone, A rainbow has crashed!"
2) This morning, MiniMoose(5) is playing Xbox in front of a 42" screen. I have a constant problem reprimanding him, to step away from the screen as he likes to stand when he plays and then moves to within 30cm of the screen. This morning was no different, I shouted at him for a third time to step back, when he replied, "It's not my fault, it's my feet!"
