We could probably all benefit from looking at life with a little bit more childlike wonder. Kids are curious about everything, and they’re constantly using their little brains to make sense of the world around them. So inevitably, from time to time, their reasoning leads to some hilarious outcomes.

Redditors have recently been sharing some of their favorite examples of “kid logic,” so we’ve gathered the best ones below. From believing sugar can make the ocean less salty to assuming your pillow isn’t working if you can’t fall asleep, enjoy reading through these adorable and hilarious thought processes, pandas. And be sure to upvote the “kid logic” that you think makes perfect sense!

30 People Are Cracking Up At How Kids Hilariously Misunderstand Simple Concepts I was fly fishing a popular canoeing river when two middle school aged kids came paddling down ina rented canoe. They got turned 180 degrees in an eddy and instead of trying to turn their whole canoe back around they just turned around in their seats and started paddling downstream again. Most adults would try paddling back around but this was by far the more efficient way to handle it

30 People Are Cracking Up At How Kids Hilariously Misunderstand Simple Concepts My sister has two children, ages 3 and 1. I had my first child in September so my nephews now have a cousin.

The three year old insists that it is only his cousin, since he is the oldest and his younger brother will have to wait for the next one before he gets a cousin of his own.

30 People Are Cracking Up At How Kids Hilariously Misunderstand Simple Concepts Leaving the daycare center, a kid called back, "BYE-BYE! Be safe, watch out for polar bears!"

We are not in polar bear territory, but polar bears live in the snow, so since it snowed earlier in the day, it was only logical that we were at elevated polar bear risk.

30 People Are Cracking Up At How Kids Hilariously Misunderstand Simple Concepts When I was 15, I used to babysit this lovely kid called Jack.

He would very proudly tell people "I'm three!" And hold up three fingers. One day, I asked him how old did he think I was? He gave this very careful consideration.

"26." He said firmly.

"Why do you think I'm 26?" I replied, mildly offended.

"Mummy looks after me and she's 26. You look after me too."

Fair enough!

A toddler I was watching stood next to a tree. He then licked the bark of the tree the way a dog would lick an ice cream cone: full blown, no inhibition.

Shocked, I asked him why licked the tree, and he said, "I didn't know what it tasted like." He caught me so off guard, so all I could say was, "you know what, that's fair. "

I asked him if he liked it. He said, no, no he did not.

Here I am in my 50s and get to be a dragon. So I put up my big dragon wings and dragon face and she stopped dead in her tracks and said “uncle guru, you don’t have to pretend to be a dragon you can just BE one. See? I’m a dragon and so are you. Let’s go see dad.”

So we’re just standing there like two humans and she says “we’re dragons” with a shrug of her shoulders like I know it’s obvious but just in case..

So yeah, blew my mind lol

When I was about 6 or so, my very religious grandmother offered to buy me something at the church yard sale. There was a Grateful Dead shirt. I wasn't familiar with their music back then, I just liked the color and design. She told me it wasn't proper attire for a Christian. I responded with "Christians go to heaven when they die, right?" She said yes, to which I proclaimed they would then be grateful to be in heaven, and grateful they were dead. The logic didn't work, and I didn't get the shirt.

My mom still brings it up and laughs occasionally. As an adult I love the grateful Dead and for my 40th birthday my mom got me a grateful Dead vinyl box set.

So… I have a naturally-low core temp, which makes my skin feel like an ice cube.

Youngest Cousin (born 2019) had had a high temp back in 2019, my aunt just handed her to me to have me cool her down by holding her — I became the Baby-Cooling Station. When she decided she needed to cool down at a cook-out in 2021, she shouted, “I GE I PAK!”, toddled-over to where I was napping, grabbed my hand, and just put it to her forehead before shouting, “I GAH I PAK!” when my aunt asked her what she was even doing.

EDIT:

I just felt like typing-out how she said those two things, since it was super-cute. But, they mean, “I GO GET ICE PACK!” and, “I GOT ICE PACK!”, respectively.

Her dad was an alcoholic, and would drink as long as he could find more alcohol. So, logically, the best way to get him to stop drinking was to empty the bottles. And the best way to do that? Drink them all with the determination of a 7 year old who wants a sober parent.

Two of the neighbor kids locked themselves out of their house while their mom went to the store. My kids invited them in, sat them at the kitchen table, gave them a drink and a snack and kept them company until their mom got back.

After the kids went home, I told my kids that they had been very hospitable.

My seven year old was very indignant. "We were NOT! We were very nice to them. We didn't spit on anybody!"

I can never find bubble gum flavoured toothpaste in the supermarket anymore. For some reason we only ever used it when we were on holiday as kids. I hate the taste of mint, so would be nice to have an alternative. There is a cinnamon one, but it's organic and I think more 'natural' so is three times the price.

In late 2020, my nephew told us he hated the farmers and they should go to jail. Incredibly confused, we asked why. He said he wished they would stop killing people because he wanted to go back to school.
After some back and forth, we realized when we’d been saying ‘quarantine’, he didn’t understand the word and decided we must mean ‘corn fields’. 5 year old logic then reasoned that the corn farmers were the cause of lock downs and all the people getting sick.
My family still jokes about ‘those damn corn farmers’ anytime something throws a wrench in our plans.

I was in a playpark with my kid when she looked way across the square and spotted a figure halfway up a staircase, stopped in mid step, probably an older person resting or something. My daughter announced "That person's run out of batteries." Now that I'm a good deal older myself I appreciate that description more every time I climb a flight of stairs.

30 People Are Cracking Up At How Kids Hilariously Misunderstand Simple Concepts When my oldest was 2, he was obsessed with peanut butter M&M's. One day he was eating some and proudly declared that he knew where peanut butter came from. To get peanut butter, you simply crack open peanut butter M&Ms like an egg, and scoop it out.

I was one of many kids who thought musicians played live in the radio station when you heard their songs on the radio

I thought that when they made a movie where the characters age, they just waited for the actors to get older.

My grandson helped me bake a birthday cake for his grandpa. He and I mixed it, baked it, let it cool, HEAVY SIGH!

We frosted it and decorated it, sprinkles anyone?
He wanted to have cake right away. I explained we had to sing Grandpa happy birthday. I'm thinking after birthday dinner.

My husband had just got home from work and was in the shower. Grandson knocks on the bathroom door and proceeds to sing the birthday song as loud as he could.
He then runs to the kitchen to announce grandpa got his birthday song! Let's eat cake!

He was 3.5 years old!

Adorable 😂 I’d be like “no we have to sing happy birthday WITH grandpa! It’s not the same if you don’t sing it TO HIS FACE”

My 3-year-old couldn't think of the words "butter knife” and instead called it a “butter cutter”. That’s what we call it now.

My brother who is two years older made me believe in Santa a little longer. I expressed doubt to him, he told me he had actually seen Santa eating the cookies we left out. That was so sweet for a 9 yr old to do for his sister!

30 People Are Cracking Up At How Kids Hilariously Misunderstand Simple Concepts About 30 years ago I was a coach on a swim team. One of the kids I coached was named Bryan, age 4. Bryan was super close with a 17 year old girl Tamica. She was on the team and was good friends of the family. Well one day Bryan saw Tamica hop in her car and drive home after practice. He ran to his mom and asked “Mommy, is Tamica married?” She said “No Bryon why would you think that?” He replied “Cause she drives a car”. We all had a good laugh because in his experience only married people (his parents most likely) drove cars.

I'm stuck on the ages of the people in this story. So a 4 year old and 17 year old are friends? and on the same swim team?

Towels can’t get wet because they dry things.

You have to stay away from trees in lightning storms because wood conducts electricity.

You say thank you when someone has done something for you, so if you ask someone to do something and quickly say “thank you” they have to do it because they already got the thank you.

I was in college when my son was little but he always referred to it as my job. I told him I was going to school, he even had to come with me a couple of times, but he wasn't having it. His logic was that school is for kids, you can't be mom and a kid, so it must not be school.

One day, when my daughter was around five, I was sitting in the living room reading when I saw her out of the corner of my eye peering around the corner from the hallway at me. Then she runs full tilt from the hallway, through the living room, into the kitchen. She comes out of the kitchen and asks me, "Daddy, could you see me?" She thought if she ran fast enough she'd be invisible.

When I was a kid I once asked my Mum how many days there were in a year and when she said 365 I asked if that was how many people there were on the planet because I assumed everyone had their own individual birthday… I guess I forgot twins existed.

I had broken up with my boyfriend but had gotten back together and my nephew was asking about my relationship status when he was about 4. "So are you... broken down?" Totally logical as down is the opposite of up!

Mine is my logic because I was a child genius.

When I was a wee little one I wasn't able to say my brother's whole name nor could I say "brother" so I always called my older brother "Broth".

When I was 5 or 6 I was in our garage with my friend and we found a can of orange spray paint. Obviously, this means it's time to go spray paint some curse words! Our garage went to an alley, next to the door on the pavement I sprayed out "a*s". Out on the pavement on the side of the garage I sprayed out "damn." I was killing it.

But wait! I think, my parents are for *sure* going to know this was me right? 💡❗️ I come up with the *perfect. plan.*

I go *inside* the garage, right next to where the passenger would get out of my mom's car when it was parked, and sprayed "Broth did it"

🤦🏻‍♂️ my mother still tells this story more than 25 years later.

Like the old joke about the little brother and sister who had just learned some new words, and when the mother asked the little boy what he wanted for breakfast he said "I'll have some of those damn Cheerios." Of course he got into trouble for saying that. The mother next turned to the little girl and asked her what she wanted. "You can bet your a*s I don't want Cheerios!"

The sink in my classroom was broken so we had some people come in to fix it. One of my kids referred to them as "lookers". When I asked why, he said "because they look their faces into the sink".
