kids say the darndest things.

these days i'm giving tours for elementary school field trips to the art gallery.
have a few gems.

in response to me asking how long it took to make the biggest piece in the show:
"thirty.............eight minutes."

when asked what they thought my favorite piece was a picture of:
"it looks like the inside of a unicorn."

during their drawing time (their papers are on clipboards):
"i moved the paper a little bit. i just wanted you to know so i don't get in trouble."

sharing what they thought a piece was about.  this child was nine:
"that movie, the black swan. ..........what?  i've seen that movie."

when asked if they have any collections:
"i collect empty toilet paper rolls."

when i told them they were going to build their own quilt as a class:
"do we have to build it all together?"
"yep."
"but i don't want to build a quilt with the girls!  they ruin everything!"
i thought he was going to cry.

a second-grader:
"you have the same phone as me."
what.
