It’d be hilarious if you taught her how to code Fortran.

You sick bastard! Have her do a print loop in BASIC.

I don’t think his niece is named Fortran, tho

This is evil

donkey makes popping noise

(not exactly the same noise but can be used to the same effect)

tiefling ,

Or making the mouth pop effect with your thumb

On a vacation when I was a teenager I taught my younger sibling the “SYN/ACK” game.

They still remember the TCP stack handshake protocol including resets and acks years later.

Lol, kid will sniff packets next

pineapplelover ,

What kind of game is this? Never heard of it

Iamsqueegee ,

My niece and nephew loved the “this guy” gag. What’s got two thumbs and thinks you’re the coolest? THIS GUY! and point to yourself with your thumbs.

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Nah here it’s Good guy/Wank

Teach her that, it’s an important life lesson

I’ve thought my niece that policemen go “oink oink” and that pigs go “You have the right to remain silent!”

notfromhere ,

I’ve thought that too.

Teach her to order something off a foreign-language menu, invite the family out to dinner, and see if she can place her order fluently.

Doing the “Five year old white girl shocks waitress by ordering Orange Chicken in perfect Mandarian” bit IRL would be pretty funny and adorable.

I’m a weird sort of person. 😺

Clydesdalecrusher ,

She could configure linux from scratch

OsaErisXero ,

Idk about some of these given the age bracket, but Spot the Fed is fun for the whole family.

Contramuffin ,

Seconding lockpocking. Easy to learn, tactile feedback (very kid friendly!), can absolutely annoy parents. But be careful to teach children not to do anything that’ll seriously get them into trouble

  • Beatboxing. “Boots and cats and boots and cats”-style.
  • The pulling your thumb off trick.
  • The Macarena.
  • “The Game”. (“You just lost The Game.”)
  • Chopsticks on the piano/keyboard/toy xylophone/etc.
  • “The Name Game.”

Then once they got it just right, let them sing it all week.

Once the week goes by … teach them 99 bottles of pop on the wall

kitnaht ,

A buddy of mine taught his 5 yr old daughter to tell people “One time, at band camp…I stuck a flute in my…” long pause “nose”.

And he gets joy remembering all of the people go wide-eyed waiting for that next word out of her mouth.

Just hope he’s prepared for when she finds out the quote’s origin

sundray ,

“Guess what?”

“What?”

“CHICKEN BUTT!”

hitmyspot ,

Guess what.

What?

Youre a snot and I’m not.

Zoop ,

I love this type of thing! There’s also:

“Guess why?”/“Chicken thigh!”

“Guess who?”/“Chicken poo!”

As a kid I also came up with “Guess when?”/“Chicken shin!” “Guess where?”/“Chicken hair!” and “Guess how?”/“Chicken COW!!” but those may not be quite as good, hahaha.

Teach her how she can insert “apparently” into every statement.

My 8 year old starts almost every sentence with “By the way.”

the_crotch ,

In 80 years your kid could be president

neidu2 ,

And “allegedly”

Nomad ,

I taught my kid to say “mom drinks beer for breakfast” as soon as she could talk. Wasn’t that popular with the family xD

Zoop ,

Lol! That reminds me of how (when AOL was thing and I was probably way too young to be on it but would use it to talk to family) my mom had me type out and send “I bought a bunch of cars and RECTUM!” via email or AIM out of nowhere to random family members with no context, even though I had no idea why that was funny, but she thought it was hilarious. Which is pretty damn funny looking back!

A_Very_Big_Fan ,

Reminds me of the people who taught their bird to say mom beats me! oOoOoOoOo

InputZero ,

If she’s the right age, Teach her The Game. It’s a brain virus game.

Rule number 1 of The Game, you can not think about The Game. When you think about The Game you lose.

Rule number 2, when you think of The Game you have to say that you’ve lost The Game. Ideally loudly and publicly.

Rule number 3, after losing the game you get 30 minutes grace period to stop thinking about it before The Game starts again.

Rule number 4, once you have learned about the game you may either play the game or cheat.

Captainvaqina ,

Dangit. It’s been years. You flipping flipper.

NotMyOldRedditName ,

You beat me to it.

Start em young.

Also I lost the game.

WorstCase ,
@WorstCase@lemmy.world avatar

It’s been a while. But now I lost the game again…

UpperBroccoli ,

I taught my niece to say “I can’t work like this!”. That was fun!
