Renthead Mommy Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 putting the words "leaking" and "underwear" together on the same page of ETC #7 was a good idea? Um, hello!! ETC is geared toward the 6-7yo range?? Apparently they had no idea how funny a 7yo boy would find those two word when put even remotely together. Or how many times he'd find them funny. Over and over and over again. Ugh! Where's the little smilie banging his head against the table when I need it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kari C in SC Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 My dd used to crack up all the time while doing ETC. Some of the pictures are just hysterical too! I loved those times when she would start giggling out of nowhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the perks of homeschooling. Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I like it when this happens. I love to hear the kids laughing during school time. It is just a refreshing break to the day like opening a window to a fresh breeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephanie78 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 :lol: Last week my 6 yo ds kept cracking up over "gas" in his phonics lessons. He thought it was the funniest thing he had ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretty in Pink Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 My 6yo is always giggling while working on ETC. The sentences are pretty silly but I don't mind. I'm glad he enjoys that subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a similar experience with one of the non-sense sentences on ETC online recently. I thought I was going to scream before my 6 year old stopped talking and laughing about it.

MyBlueLobsters Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'm lost, what is the ETC books? Oh, and yes, anything that involves bodily fluids, gas or other disgusting slimy stuff is the funniest things to boys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
