A first-grade teacher collected well-known proverbs. She gave each

child in her class the first half of a proverb and asked them to come

up with the remainder of the proverb. Their insight may surprise you.



Better to be safe than . . . punch a 5th grader

It's always darkest before . . . daylight savings

You can lead a horse to water but . . . how?

Don't bite the hand that . . . looks dirty

If you lie down with dogs, you'll . . . stink in the morning

Happy the bride who . . . gets all the presents

Don't put off till tomorrow what . . . you put on to go to bed

Children should be seen and not . . . spanked or grounded

You get out of something what you . . . see pictured on the box

Better late than . . . pregnant
