Intelligent Proverbs

Intelligent Proverbs from 6-year old geniuses
Again, an email that sent me into splits and yet again made me ponder over the astonishing ability and cleverness of the little geniuses around us.

These are the results of a first grade class test: 26 students, each of whom is only six years old, were given half of a well-known proverb and were asked to complete it. Here are some of the results:

1.) Strike while the bug is close

2.) Never underestimate the power of termites

3.) No news is impossible

4.) Don’t bite the hand that looks dirty

5.) A miss is as good as a Mr

6.) Better late than pregnant

7.) An idle mind is the best way to relax

8.) Where there’s smoke there’s pollution

9.) A penny saved is not much

10.) Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and you have to blow your nose

11.) When the blind lead the blind get out of the way

12.) If at first you don’t succeed, get new batteries

12.) Two’s company, three’s the Musketeers

And, the winner is:

The pen is mightier than the pigs!
