Children Are Funny!

A first grade school teacher in Virginia had
twenty-five students in her class. She presented each
child in her classroom the first 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!
