Strange things we did as kids

Ok, this kind of a game (not really, but ok) where you post your funniest, weirdest childhood memories.
I'll start: One year, on my sister's birthday, she had these streamers hanging from her door and she was cutting it like hair. When me and my little cousin Jamie asked if we could cut too, she told us to go away and find something else to cut. We found teddy bears, and when we were bored with that, we played beauty salon with eachothr...with real scissors. When we were done, we dreesed up in play clothes and marched into the party with our new haircuts. My aunt was especially furious...the next day was family picture day for my cousins.
your turn!

We caught tadpoles in the "lake" in my neighborhood and raised them in my Barbie pool until they were frogs...and when they were frogs, and they jumped around my patio, we smashed them with the end of broom handles...and white stuff squished out of them.
I also broke thermometers frequently and played with the mercury until I would finally lose it in the blue carpet my room was outfitted in.
And I traded Garbage Pail Kids like a mofo.

yeah THAT doesn't need any explanation at all....
hahaha
Ok, another one:
I used to have these two cats who would kill mice and always leave them around the house for us to "find with our feet" (eew.) I felt bad for them so everytime we found a new dead mouse, I would make up a story about it's life before it died like a bio and kept them stored in a file in my room.

Me and my cousin got in trouble for prank calling when we were like, 10-12. We'd call people and ask them in a bad Mexican accent, "Is this Tito Jackson?" So random.

Well when we were on holiday in majorca when my brother was about 3-5 i forget. We had a house/room becuae it was like a load of houses around the pool thing. It was right near the deep end. My brother to excited to get in the pool managed to get out the open door and jump in fully clothed. So my dad had to jump in fully clothed to grab him.
We also have this wiered window that goes all the way down tot eh floor in our living room. Theres part of the window that opens like a door cus its pritty large that also goes down to the floor. The great escape artist managed to get it open and run out of the entire culversack and was found up at the shops

he was around 5 there also.

I once told my teatcher that my dad was a member of the italian mafia.
(The idiot took it as a treath, and they had a meeting... But still fun)

The best friend I had when I was little (around 6) used to take bites out of the stick of butter in the fridge and drink vinegar too. Eew!

when i was like 3, my parents used to have this little table, and sometimes my dad used to forget a glass with liquor there and i.... used to drink it.
