;D You gotta love it! This speaks for itself!
A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class. She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known 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, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

I really like 25. "a bird in the hand is going to poop on you." I guess its the English side of my ancestory and their bath room humor.

lol That, and alot of kids toys are electronic now. So if at first they don't work, try new batteries. ;) Especially the newer ones that hoover through 'em.
jeez.. i think the only thing i have that i have that is battery operated and i use on a regular basis is my flashlights and my cordless drill.. i guess im just a redneck tho... ???
Most things I have with batteries are rechargeable (like the iPod I said I'd likely never get :P ). I did have a wireless keyboard/mouse set though that went through AAs pretty quick, and heard digital cameras that don't come with the rechargeable batteries can burn through 'em pretty fierce.
