It's not just adults that get their words wrong sometimes...

On a much lighter note than my previous post, here are some real 'faux pas' howlers allegedly written by kids in school... and if you can't spot immediately what's wrong with each of these, maybe you need to increase your word power too?! Here goes...

"In Scandinavia, the Danish come from Denmark, the Norwegians come from Norway, and the Lapdancers come from Lapland."

"Sir Walter Raleigh circumcised the world with a big clipper!"

"If you marry two people, you are a pigamist. But morons are allowed to do this..."

"Crabs (and creatures like them) all belong to a family of crushed asians."

"Helicopters are cleverer than planes - not only can they fly, they can also hoover."

"In last year's Christmas concert, Linzi played the main prat. I only played one of the smaller prats..."

"At the end of the show, we all sang 'Away In A Manager.'

"The closet town to France is Dover. You can get to France on a train, or you can go on a fairy..."

"On our activity holiday, Dad wanted to ride the hores but Mum said they were too ekspensiv."

"Why do we say 'Old Men' at the end of our prayers? I don't know any old men, apart from Grandad!"

"A mosque is a sort of church. The main difference is that the roof is doomed..."

"In wartime, children who lived in big cities had to be evaporated, because it was safer in the country."

"Sometimes in the war they take prisoners and keep them as ostriches until the war is over. And some prisoners end up in constipation camps!"

Thanks Kids!
