Funny Things Kids Come Up With

A first grade teacher collected well known proverbs. He gave each
kid in the class the first half of the proverb, and asked them to
come up with the rest. Here is what the kids came up with:

Better to be safe than...punch a 5th grader
Strike while the...bug is close
It's always darkest before...daylight savings time
Never underestimate the power of...termites
You can lead a horse to water but...how?
Don't bite the hand that...looks dirty
No news is...impossible
A miss is as good as a...Mr.
You can't teach an old dog...math
If you lie down with dogs, you...will stink in the morning
Love all, trust...me
The pen is mightier than...the pigs
An idle mind is...the best way to relax
Where there is smoke, there's...pollution
Happy is the bride who...gets all the presents
A penny saved is...not much
Two is company, three's...The Musketeers
None are so blind as...Helen Keller
Children should be seen and not...spanked or grounded
If at first you don't succeed...get new batteries
You get out of something what you...see pictured on the box
When the blind lead the blind...get out of the way
There is no fool like...Aunt Edie
Laugh and the whole world laughs with you. Cry and...you have to blow your nose
