Who Knew?


Yes, what you are seeing in the picture is a child-safety sticker (the "randomly generated number" stickers that come in 2 or 3 parts).

Yes, these normally go on the backs of toddlers or babies when we have nursery or a special event.

Yes, the back you see before you is most definitely not that of a baby or toddler. In fact, it is the back of a 5th grade boy.

What makes this so funny is that we normally put them on the backs of babies and toddlers rather than their fronts so that they forget about them. However, it seems to work equally as well with 4th, 5th, and 6th grade boys because there were a whole slew of older elementary kids that didn't realize their sticker was still in place until I peeled them off and dismissed them to their parents.

I wonder if the whole "put a bubble in your mouth" works with them too. Hmm...just a thought.
