Educated 6 year olds
 
A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class.  She presented each child in her classroom the 1 st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of a proverb.   It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders.  Their insight may surprise you.  While reading, keep in mind that these are first graders, 6 year olds, because the last one is a classic!
