Children getting words mixed up.?

Does anyone want to share some amusing incidences where children get words confused/mixed up? For instance this 9 year old grand-daughter amused me with this:

She was watching the movie Transformers, the mother in the movie asked her son was he masterbating as he had his bedroom door locked. My grand-daughter asked "mummy what is masterbating"...her reply, oh I'll tell you about that when you're older. A few days pass be and grand-daughter is still curious about the word and keeps asking mum & dad about masterbating. My daughter quickly explains it's when boys play with their penis and it gets hard...but there is more to it I will explain some other time.

A few more days go by, 3 year old grand-son is coming out of the shower and drying himself with a towel and paying extra attention to his penis and it becomes erect, this does not bother so he drops the towel and wanders through the house naked and still with an erection. The grand-daughter sees this and looks anxious and yells

Update:

"mum...dad, Jay has been meditating!!!

    Well, it's pretty embarrassing...when I was 7 years old. I didn't know what's that all about....There was a news about Aids..i asked my mum, "What's Aids", and she said ,"it's a sickness", "but what kind?" i said, "You'll get it someday", there are many visitors when it happened...now I realize that's it's so embarrassing for mum asked by her 7 year old girl that kind of question in front of people.

    A friend of mines daughter (4yrs.) was accusing another one of my friends of cheating on her husband. We are not sure what she was mistaking this for, but I'm sure she was confused.

    Im sorry but I just dont find it amusing that her grandmother flat out told her what masturbating was at that age. That whole story was quite strange.
