"Children Writing About The Ocean"
1) - This is a picture of an octopus. It has eight testicles. (Kelly, age 6)
2) - Oysters' balls are called pearls. (Jerry, age 6)
3) - If you are surrounded by ocean you are an island.
If you don't have ocean all round you, you are incontinent. (Wayne, age 7)
4) - Sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth,
just like Emily Richardson. She's not my friend any
more. (Kylie, age 6)
5) - A dolphin breaths through an as-hole on the top of its head.
(Billy, age 8)
6) - My uncle goes out in his boat with 2 other men
and a woman and pots and comes back with crabs. (Millie, age 6)
7) - When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the
ocean.
Sometimes when the wind didn't blow the sailors would whistle to make
the wind
come. My brother said they would have been better off eating beans.
(William, age 7)
8) - Mermaids live in the ocean. I like mermaids.
They are beautiful and I like their shiny tails, but how on
earth do mermaids get pregnant? Like, really? (Helen, age 6)
9) - I'm not going to write about the ocean. My baby
brother is always crying, my Dad keeps yelling at my
Mom, and my big sister has just got pregnant, so I
can't think what to write. (Amy, age 6)
10) - Some fish are dangerous. Jellyfish can sting.
Electric eels can give you a shock. They have to live
in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug
themselves into chargers. (Christopher, age 7)
11) - When you go swimming in the ocean, it is very
cold, and it makes my willy small. (Kevin, age 6)
12) - Divers have to be safe when they go under the
water. Divers can't go down alone, so they have to
go down on each other. (Becky, age 8)
13) - On vacation my Mom went water skiing. She
fell off when she was going very fast. She says she
won't do it again because water fired right up her
big fat as-s. (Julie, age 7)
14)-The ocean is made up of water and fish. Why
the fish don't drown I don't know. (Bobby, age 6)
15)-My dad was a sailor on the ocean. He knows all
about the ocean. What he doesn't know is why he
quit being a sailor and married my mom. (James, age 7)
