A funny for my fellow homeschooling moms

Probably only the homeschoolers will find this funny, but oh well! A mom posted this to one of my state homeschooling lists this morning:

I took the kids out to breakfast Tuesday before a field trip. We were
waiting for our food and the kids were coloring the kid busy sheets they
have at most places now. My 7 year old was doing a crossword puzzle that
was covering 'school' related words. She got 'something that writes with
one end and has an eraser on the other' though she had no clue what
'building used for physical education' was. She worked a while longer,
filling in rows and finally said, "Mom, I can't get this to work."

I asked what was going on and she said, "This clue says 'the subject for the
study of life, animals, rocks, etc'. That's 'science', right?" I said,
"Yep" She said, "It won't fit here-is there another word for science?" I
said to let me see what was going on.

In the 7-letter line for 'a child that attends school all day' instead of
'student' she had put 'trapped'.

Re A funny for my fellow homeschooling moms

Nope....don't think it's funny since teaching "trapped" students all day is what I love to do....but, then again, I do think it was very creative

PIMP. That's a good one, Melanie. Think it would be okay to share it with my local group?
