Kids say the smartest things

"I won't drink milk. It is hot."
"No Shruthi, only the cup is hot. The milk is not hot."
"No thatha, the cup is hot because the milk is hot."

Thatha kept getting I-don't-know's for answers when talking to Shruthi, his 4-yr old grand daughter who was busy playing with her animal toys. He told her he would henceforth call her 'I don't know'.
The next morning, thatha, Shruthi and her parents went out on a picnic. Shruthi was quietly walking besides her father when she suddenly tugged at her papa's sleeve, only to tell him secretly into his ears........... "Papa, my other name is 'i-will-wear-what-i-want-to-wear'".

Giri, a 5-yr old, was visiting the new house he was going to move into, with his parents. He eagerly looked around the deserted place and called out "Aunty... aunty....". Receiving no response, he asks his father, "Where is aunty?"!!!!!!

It took me a while to get what he must have been onto! :)

God... the little things these kids say so spontaneously... The sheer innocence, the unexpectedness of the remark as well as its simplicity, so completely bowls us over! The remarks are very reasonable when you think of them, and yet we are so used to thinking in our own adult-like ways, it takes us by surprise!

Something unrelated: Can you program a computer to respond this way? Program computers to be humorous? How does one artificially create that little element of funniness/surprise/wit?

I must look up the name of Asimov's story on humour and its origins. I forget what it was exactly about.

I will add on to the list of anecdotes as I recollect them/experience them. It might be of use sometime .... :)

PS: The names have been changed.

"The dog will eat-up my cat"
"I am a thatha minder"
"We will go to the park for 5 minutes and then buy milk"
"Aana-Chona-Dona"!!
