It's easily done when you are younger and in some cases when your'e older too! ;)

My middle sister used to call Photographs = Grotofarts!

My niece called Toad in the Hole (sausages cooked in batter!) = Frog up the pole.

My nephew called Spaghetti Bolognaise = Masketti Bolanays.

My MIL called Rhodedendrons (flowers) = Rosydendrons


Have you got any to share? :)
 
;) Kids are so funny! My DD, EIGHT, still has alot of trouble with words and sayings.

I found out last week she thought volleyball was "bally-ball"
She calls Granola Bars, "Granilla Bars"
The remote control is the "remote patrol"
Most of the time, her versions actually make sense if you think about it!
 
My middle DS mangles stuff a lot -
log cabin = log cabinet

he once asked me if we were having stuffed peppermints for dinner.
 
My sisters are deaf- yes all three of them, and no I am not. We don't know how that happened except to say that everyone is in agreement that my parents should never have gotten together for many reasons. They are a genetic disaster and no they were not cousins that we know of! So here are some they never got rid of:

Oldest still says "I right be back" and "refriator" for Refrigerator. When she wants her eggs over hard she said "beef over" as a kid.

Middle used to say "Counch" for couch until I could not take it anymore and taught her the right way to say it. My DH and DD love the way she says our grocery store name here - Price Chopper as "Pwice Choppar" .

The baby could not say any of our names except AMY (the counch sister) so she would yell AMY from the tub and sign to have her get whichever person she wanted.

Please don't flame, all sisters are lighthearted about this and would not care that I posted. MY very dear sister's (counch girl) MIL got mad at me because we were teasing her at a party she had, which she really likes- makes her feel like she fits in. She is a ditz and knows it, that has nothing to do with her inability to hear. Well, her MIL thought she was so "courageous what with her disability to work and function" and deaf people will tell you they do not see it as a disabilty, so anyway this woman just ripped into me and so I fear people who see this post would get upset. If my sisters saw themselves as disabled I would agree.
 

Oh and DS 2 says DO DO Wa Was when he wants a drink.

DD said Walah for water as a toddler
 
My little sister use to say "Onjions" for onions, and "Duh Huh".
I've also heard Flowder for Flower.

Hum, thinking of what I use to mix up... :confused:
 
My kids say so many funny things, it's hard to remember;

Here are a couple:

crocagator - for alligator or crocodile

to the song, "My country tis of thee"- DD would sing "My country timothy"

My son loves to move dead trees in the woods. I told he could be a forest ranger when he grows up. Later he was telling Dad the he could be a stranger when he grows up.

My little sister would call the refrigerator the frigelator.

I'm sure there are more.
 
My daughter used to call Chuck E. Cheese's:

Chuck E. Jesus... talk about a pizza place with family connections! ;)
 
My DD has a few-

Restaurant is "rest-not"

Umbrella was "bebrella"

Saying the Pledge of Allegience, the phrase "and to the Republis for which it stands" is "and to the Public for Witch or stands"

When she was just learning to speak, Gramdma was Damma. Grandma was embarassed every time she said it! LOL!
 
My step sister used to call hamburgers "hangelburgers". My stepdad still calls them that to be funny.

My Fiance's daughter says "destructions" instead of instructions. She also says "indiant" instead of idiot. I'm trying to break that one really fast before someone gets offended.
 
Kids?! What about adults?

I have a client who manages to mangle all kinds of things.

Jackpot becomes black pot
Shuttle bus becomes shuffle bus
Royal Doulton becomes Royal Dolphin (and she's from the UK)
Ukranians somehow became Lukeranians
Keno becomes chemo

So she'll talk about taking the shuffle bus to play chemo and win a black pot.

And I don't know how, but somehow our friend Liz became Katie.

ETA:
I just remembered my little cousin Monica. When she was younger she couldn't pronounce her middle name, which is Elizabeth. But she would very proudly tell you her name.
Monica A little bit Lastname.
 
DD4 named her Grammie "googie", horses were "hoobies" and ber blanket is a a "****ie". She still calls it a ****ie - good thing we don't let it out of the house.

DD3 calls the police the "caplice" and a balloon a "cabloon".

Denae

edited to add - the ***'ed out word rhymes with the other two above and starts with a b
 
My son used to call bacon "bacum"
I always thought that sounded cute.

He also renamed my neice.

When my sister was pregnant, she lived in another state. My son was able to say her name "Destiny" perfectly even though he was only 1 yo. When my neice was only a few months old, my sister moved back, and my son has called his cousin "Dessy" ever since.

Of course it stuck, and that is what everyone calls her now.
 
My daughter when she was young would call butterflies "Flutterbyes" :p

My son when it was foggy out, would tell me "Look mommy it's froggy out" :rotfl:

I love kids, they do make you smile when you need it the most.
 
One night we had steak for dinner and my DH asks our younger DD to go get the A-1 Steaksauce. She comes inside and says, "Hey, Mom, Dad needs some A-wah sauce"

She also calls appetizers "Appletizers" and mozzerella sticks "Monsterella sticks"

used to hear sirens and exclaim "Firef---!" A little embarassing in public, but hysterical.

That reminds me of stories my mom used to tell us of my sister calling Kentucky Fried Chicken "F***y fied chicken" and Catsup "Catsh*t"
 
My daughter is still convinced it's "Allison Wonderland" not "Alice in Wonderland"
 
When our DD was little the mother of her little friend and I used to laugh as talked about their mouths. One called it a "mouse" and the other a "mouf". DS used to call a foot ball a boot ball.
