We all do silly things when we’re growing up, but these kinda dumb things are pretty funny to look back on once we’re on the other side of childhood.#
So, here 16 very silly and stupid things we did as kids…#
1.“I used to do gymnastics and one time our teacher was guiding us through a backflip.”#
2.“I put my pinky in a pencil sharpener and turned it.”#
3.“I’d seen those movies where people tie bedsheets together and climb out of their window to sneak out at night.”#
4.“In year seven (11-12 years old), me and my friend were playing tennis at school and I kept getting hit in the face. She told me to hold the tennis racket in front of my face so it wouldn’t get hit.”#
5.“When I was really little, maybe three, I found a wasp laying on the sidewalk, presumably dead.”#
6.“When I was in fifth grade, my friend and I decided to see what having poison ivy was like…”#
7.“Not me, but my aunt… My mom was jumping up and down on the bed, and my aunt was pretending to smoke a cigarette with a nail.”#
8.“At school, I tried to scare my friends by pretending to drink the plastic cup of ink we were using for our art lesson.”#
9.“I stuck a rock up each nose so that I couldn’t breathe during snack time.”#
10.“One time my friend was doing the whole ‘put an ice cube on your lip’ thing.”#
11.“In kindergarten, I stabbed my hand with a pencil just to see what would happen and I still have a scar from it.”#
12.“When I was really young (like five maybe), I was fascinated by the way melted wax pools in a candle, and I wanted to touch it and see what happened.”#
13.“I put my pinky in a stapler hoping to be able to wrap a staple around it.”#
14.“I watchedJackassas a kid and was instantly inspired.”#
15.“I once climbed the (very unstable and not secured into place) shelves full of art supplies like a ladder to reach the construction paper on top.”#
16.When I was in the first grade, my mom would pack my school lunch, and it almost always included pudding cups."#
