All little ones have them and some of them. We as adults even start to use them. Kidisms, are the funny little things your kids say and their common mis-pronouncing of words.
My son used to say, "You do dat" when ever someone would do something bad. It carried over to work if someone would drop a box or mess up. He also says "college greens" instead of collard greens. What do your kids say?

My oldest daughter, Raynay, used to eat breakfast with my mom when she was a child. Whenever she saw my mom preparing coffee she would say, "Granma, I want some toffee."
Another daughter loved to eat my whole wheat cinnamon rolls. So whenever I would bake them she would say, "Mama, I want some roseys."
A neice of mine at the age of four went over to my mom's house with her mother and she was hungry. So she told my mom this, "Granma, I just want a humburger." Letting mom know that she was very, very hungry.
My oldest daughter had problems pronouncing her words at the age of three. I had a nephew who was 18 months older than she was and they really adored one another. My nephew's nickname was Duck but my daughter could only call him 'Guck'. So that name stuck with him for a long time.

Thanks, Lavera1, those are great memories. I can wait till my son gets older and he can understand these funny little things. I thought of a few other things milk used to be mouk and faster well when he said it fast it sounded like b*stard which was difficult with him going to a Christian Pre-School. My son still calls Famous Amos F'n A, because all of the booths have a "F" and an "A" ingraved on the head rest. This is probably his favorite place to go eat so we hear it alot.
