That Was Swimmingly Obvious
(I am a volunteer at the swimming club, where I teach the kids who already have their basic diplomas more advanced things, like butterfly stroke or handling a water polo ball. This is the first time we’ll be using water polo balls, so I always cover the safety rules, just in case. The ages vary between 6 and 12. The kids know I tend to be either silly or sarcastic and they are used to my expressions. I always tell them to think for themselves.)
Me: “When we go into the water, we will not be holding the ball.”
Kid #1: “Can we dive in?”
Me: “Do you want me to take your teeth out for you, or will you let the ball do that?” *kids laugh* “Nah, for obvious reasons, we do not dive in with balls!”
Kid #2: *with a wicked grin* “So, how do boys do that?”
Me: “…You win that one.”
