Okay, so we're doing school just now and C has a page that has all kinds of pictures on it. Matches, a needle, an ax, a ball, blocks, a doll, a sled, safety pins, a pitchfork, and broken glass. He was to circle the pictures that were okay for kids to play with and X out the ones that weren't safe. He gets to the safety pins and says, "Mom, I had to X these out cuz these are for keeping babies diapers closed and we don't want to play with those."
So coming from a kid who ALWAYS had disposable sticky-tab diapers and NEVER had safety pins on his diapers (I don't even know if we have any safety pins in the house!), just exactly HOW did he come to this knowledge? LOL
It's just so funny to me how they inherently know some things and yet are oblivious to others.

I was at a baby shower over the weekend and someone had made a diaper cake. One of the girls attending said "oh look, they are made out of real diapers." (meaning disposable rather than cloth). All the women over age 50 laughed so hard we thought THEY would need diapers (hee hee).
(I found your blog through the comments on mom2my6pack's blog.)
I've experienced this type of thing as well! My conclusion is that somewhere along the way they saw a picture or heard someone talking about it that I just completely didn't 'register' because I already know it. Of course, in this moment I can't think of an example. Gr. and lol
