    Can you remember anything you brought for show & tell to school as a kid? I only remember bringing troll dolls and rocks... lol, yeah I liked to collect rocks. Although, one time I did manage to bring my cat to school and my teacher was surprised. She was a cat lover and the cat ended up staying in one of her craft cabinets for the day...
    What would you bring to work if you had Show & Tell day as an adult?

    My pet kangaroo.....:D

    Kindergarten through 2nd grade or so was fun for show and tell...My dad was a chemist, so I was so excited bringing these clear liquids to school in test tubes and then making them turn different colors with some kind of reactor.......The blue color was very pretty and mesmerizing......
    I think I brought a rabbit I was taking care of for someone once.....
    That is all I remember about s&t.

    I once took this stuffed cat...i can't remember her name but she was on the Garfield and friends cartoon. Garfield was obviously horny for her - so I introduced the cat as garfield's girlfriend. My first grade teacher laughed at me and said "Garfield doesn't have a girlfriend."

    Fucking bitch. I watched that show 2 weeks ago and Garfield's girlfriend was on it. I wanted to call my old first grade teacher and tell her to shove it.

    I clearly have unresolved issues

    I can't remember from when I was a kid but show and tell is a big thing in my daughters class. Last week she wanted to take our puppy, not happening!

    We did but I can not remember what I actually took in.

    My sons JK teacher started a journal with a stuffed bear called Teddy that all the kids had a chance to bring home for a weekend. We would record what we did, ate and anything else the kids wanted to and then they would share it on Mondays. It was a lot of fun and the kids loved having teddy for the weekend!

    Can't think of much I brought, other than toys. And something of my grandparents, but thats a different story..

    I do remember my mother picking me up from outside infants school, with our beautiful new kitten. He lived a very long and happy life. The other kids were mesmerised by him, wrapped up in his blanket. I still dream about him now..

    I remember Show & Tell from elementary school.

    One year I brought in my stamp collection and the next year my coin collection. I talked about my struggle each week to maintain my collection once I ran out of my weekly allowance :eek:

    The only thing I ever remember showing for show and tell was my panties. Haha, it was the first day back after Christmas vacation my kindergarten year and most the kids brought a toy or a book or something nice they got for Christmas. All I had on me was my brand new panties I got as a stocking stuffer. So I just hiked up my dress and showed those to everyone. I was the only kid who truly appreciated those panties for how amazing they were.

    No just the remnants of a family argument.
    I told the teacher it was something I'd got from the butcher's shop.

    Life's great when you're 7 years old, and you've read you can't be held criminally accountable for anything. :cool:

    All my tells are shows so I'd bring lots of popcorn for everybody to snack on while I make their ears bleed.

    I remember bringing my chocolate oriental shorthair (a bit different of a cat, that most people haven't seen) every year when I was in elementary school. That cat was great with both large groups and kids.

    PEORIA, Ariz. -

    A first grader in Peoria shocked his class when he pulls out a gun for show and tell.

    It happened at Oasis Elementary School near 79th Avenue and Thunderbird.

    The boy pulled the loaded gun out of his backpack.
    But when the teacher saw the gun, she immediately grabbed it and no one was hurt.

    It's not believed the 6-year-old meant to do anything malicious with it.

    His parents were called in and everyone ended up in the principal's office.

    A note went home to other parents who were concerned when they heard about what had happened.

    It does not look like the parents will face any charges. The child will be disciplined, but it's not clear what the punishment will be.


    or this


    A kindergarten which organised a show-and-tell session for pupils had a shock when one youngster brought in his mother’s crack pipe and drugs.
    Mother Michelle Marie Cheatham, 32, was charged with possession of a controlled substance and one count of first-degree child endangerment after the incident at Sweet Springs Elementary School in Missouri.
    ‘It kind of makes you wonder why parents would leave something like that out for a child to get a hold of,’ one resident is reported as saying.

    It's happened before.... :eek:

    A 5-year-old boy in Bridgeport Conn brought heroin into school to show his classmates. It turns out the drugs belonged to his stepfather, who was arrested on drug charges Fox News reports.
