Okay, children. Put down the Facebook and Instagrams. It’s Jimmy Fallon’s hashtag round up time. And this time it’s all about the kiddos and the hilarious things they say.
Look, I know it might seem a bit doom and gloom out there. But Fallon is here to help. No, he doesn’t have cash for each of us. Something better.
He recently asked parents to share the funniest thing they’ve heard a kid say.
It’s Hashtags time! Tell us a funny thing you heard a kid say, and tag it with #KidQuotes. Could be on the show!

My son just got out of doc’s office where he got shots, came out crying and looked at all the other kids in the waiting and screamed “THEY HURT YOU IN THERE!”. You could hear a pin drop. #KidQuotes

7. What a little charmer.
My 5 year old nephew burped while we were at a restaurant. My mom said “Hey if you were on a date would you do that?” He said “Ya, and then I would just say ‘Hey, was that you?’” #KidQuotes

8. Snort.
In a shop, when a man said something racist about a woman, a kid said out loud: "I'm surrounded by idiots" and I couldn't help but laugh for ten minutes. #KidQuotes.

When my sister was a kid, she used to hit her fist on the side of her butt while sitting on the toilet. When mom asked her why, she responded with "it helps my poo come out".#KidQuotes

Basically, what these tweets are trying to tell us is that while we’re teaching them about life, they’re teaching us about brutal honesty and how to get out of trouble. Which, you know is kind of what kids do with their free time: think up excuses for when they inevitably get in trouble.
How adorable. But I need a nap right now, so… we shift focus on to all of you lovely people. Fun, right?
What’s the funniest thing you’ve heard a kid say? Tell us in the comments.
You’re rockstars! And we love you!
