Parents know that kids often come up with new names for everything. They do this a lot with words they are not able to properly pronounce. They also do this with things that they can pronounce but do not feel like they were properly named. They come up with words that make more sense to them, and often times, they make more sense to us too. Here are some of the best things renamed by kids.
These Kids Rename Everyday Things Making Us Wonder They Were Not Named That Way To Begin With
Cemeteries
Kids seem to have a lot more logic that most adults do. This seems like a perfectly acceptable alternative name for cemeteries.
Rhinos
Most of us do not know how certain animals got their names. I think they would have much cooler names if we would just let the kids name them. I am totally down for calling rhinos Battle Unicorns for now on.
Ravioli
To be honest, ravioli can be a hard word for most kids to say. It is kind of like how many little kids cannot say spaghetti properly. It is much easier to call them pasta pockets.
Earmuffs
While we are not so sure that snow headphones are a great replacement for the word earmuffs since they do not play music. My kids called them ear pillows or ear warmers.
Harmonica
Most words with four syllables are hard for the little ones to say. It is no wonder that this little guy changed the word harmonica to cowboy trumpet
Crow
Kids are just great. Sometimes they are downright inspiring. I wonder if we can permanently change the name of crows to Halloween Eagles. It seems very fitting.
Ambulances and Sheets
This kid is really going places. He uses terms that would be much easier to say and remember for kids his age. He should be allowed to rewrite the entire dictionary.
Gloves
This is not the first time we have heard of gloves being referred to as hand socks. Mittens especially have been called this by many children over the years.
Cartwheel
This young lady makes a lot of sense. A person doing a cartwheel does look a bit like a starfish moving around in circles. Her parents should be proud that she is showing signs of using common sense at such a young age.
Hush Puppies
This sounds like something anyone who suffers from brain farts would come up with. It is like calling things thing-a-ma-bobs when you cannot remember their proper name.
Chipotle
Kids like things to be direct and to the point. Chipotle basically is nothing more than a taco store just like any other place that caters to the taco lovers of the world.
Vultures
I am more impressed with the fact that this kid could say flamingo properly at his age. Not only did this kid say flamingo properly, but he came up with an epic new name for vultures. Flamingo Witches should definitely be their new name.
