I think four-year old are pretty much the funniest people on the planet. I know this because I’ve worked at preschools and would basically just spend the whole day laughing at their various antics.
They are smart enough to know a lot about life, but still young enough to be adorable confused about so many things.
I’ve rounded up some of the funniest tweets about life with a four year old, hope you enjoy these as much as I did!

Poured the 4-year-old a cup of orange juice but she insisted on sticking a straw into an actual orange instead. She refuses to admit it doesn’t work. Every time I look at her she pretends to suck at the straw and gives a refreshed “aaahhh.”

My 4yo, screaming at his little sister for touching his toy: I AM GOING TO SEND YOU TO JAIL
— Lucy Huber (@clhubes) June 26, 2024
*looks at me, and I am frowning at him*
4yo: I mean…maybe I will send you to jail. Maybe not. We'll see.

My 4-year-old told me a boy in her class hit her so I asked how she handled that and she said “I told him ‘you need to get it together, Neil.’” A conflict resolution queen.

My 4yo told me this morning: I won't be having tantrums anymore now that I'm four. That was when I was three. Huge if true. Watch this space.

My 4yo was watching TV with her talking baby doll. She moved slightly and the doll said "I'm hungry, mommy!"
— Stay at Homies (@stayathomies) September 30, 2019
So my 4yo gets annoyed and says "Ugh! Again?!"
Then gets up, walks to her play kitchen, grabs a banana and throws it at the baby.
Grandkids might not be in my future.

4yo: THAT WAS ENOUGH SCHOOL
— Courtney Ellis 🎈 (@courtneyellis) September 6, 2023
Me: That was… your first day.
4yo: YEP.
Me: You have school again tomorrow, kiddo.
4yo: NAH, I THINK I'M GOOD.

“You knew what you were getting into when you had children”

Did I? Did I know that I’d be arguing with a 4yo that we don’t lick peoples feet? DID I KNOW THAT?

My 4yo pretended she was a hired cleaner yesterday as. As she helped me clean she asked if I had any kids. After telling her about my 2 I asked if she had any of her own. Turns out she has 5 kids and has been married to a man named Carlin for 30 years. You think you know someone.

My favourite kid I ever taught when I was a swim teacher was this little 4-year-old Italian boy. One time he sneezed and nobody said anything so he just went “what? No bless yous for Giacomo?”

Four-year-old had one last quick question before bed, the question was "How does the human body work?"

Every Father’s Day I think about the time I jokingly asked my 4 year-old daughter if she was going to get me a “World's Best Dad” mug. “Nope,” she said gravely. “I haven’t met all the dads in the world.”

Me: What do you want for a snack?
— James Breakwell, Exploding Unicorn (@XplodingUnicorn) October 17, 2018
4-year-old: Spaghetti.
Me: That's not a snack.
4: It is if you just make a little bit.

4yo starts to meltdown because I flushed the toilet instead of her (major faux pas). Then as tears brim over her eyelids, she takes a deep breath and says, “life is more important than toilets”
— Lil Bit 🌈 (@LizerReal) March 4, 2021
Life is more important than toilets, y’all.

My son proposed to his fiancée about six months ago and she said yes. They’re super happy, we love her family too. I just found out today that another girl is in love with him and plans to propose next week…. should I say anything? Oh and also, he’s 4. They’re all 4.
