Status: offline 		A first grade teacher collected well-known proverbs. She gave each child in her class the first half of a proverb and asked hem 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 these keep in mind that these are 6-years-old, because the last one is quite amazing.
 
1. Better to be safe than......punch a 5th grader.
2. Don't bite the hand that.....looks dirty.
3. It's always darkest before.........Daylight Saving Time.
4. A miss is as good as a...................Mr.
5. If you lie down with dogs, you'll......stink in the morning.
6. Children should be seen and not......spanked or grounded.
7. If at first you don't succeed......get new batteries.
8. Don't put off till tomorrow what............you put on to go to bed.
9. When the blind lead the blind........get out of the way.
10. An idle mind is...........the best way to relax.
11. Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and.......you have to blow your nose.
12. Happy the bride who.........gets all the presents.
13. A penny saved is........................not much.
14. Two's company, three's.................the Musketeers.
15. There are none so blind as.........Stevie Wonder.
 
And the favourite:
 
16. Better late than...........................pregnant

It is better to have Loved and Lost ...... Then to have her hang around all the time.
I do not regret the things I've done ...... Except when it makes Mommy Angry
One in the hand is better than ...... None in the hand
early to bed, early to rise ....... means I miss all the good TV shows


My Favorite

A father is telling his son about the good old days when he talks about being told on for doing something he wasn't supposed to
Loose Lips, Sink Ships. he said in reference to people bragging about wrong doings     
"Dad, did you really say silly things like that when you were a Kid?"
"well what would you have said kiddo?"
"Nothing, when I do bad things I do them all by myself, No ships are needed."
