* ''[[Persona 3]]'' has a fun example. New Years day has the guys in the team admiring the girls in their [[Kimono Fanservice|kimonos]]. The resident cute little boy Ken asks if the girls are cold. When questioned why it's because [[Casanova Wannabe|Junpei]] says that [[Going Commando|they wear nothing underneath]]. Cue Yukari stomping on Junpei's foot and asking if he told Ken anything else. (This may be better in ''Portable'' when it's possible to have a [[May-DecemberMay–December Romance|romantic]] relationship with Ken)
* ''[[Solatorobo]]'' contains a mild case. While Elh manages to confuse Red and Chocolate about {{spoiler|being female}}, one of the orphans immediately {{spoiler|realizes she's a girl and asks her why she dresses like a boy}}. Red replies that it makes it easier to play, volunteering a flustered Elh for babysitting duty. Only question is, how exactly did the kid ''know that''...?

Hugh: You don't know --

Hugh: ''(Sticks fingers in ears and hums "la la la la")''<br />
Jimmy: ...then a nine month gestation period...<br />

* 1960s-vintage [[Talk Show]] host [[wikipedia:Art Linkletter|Art Linkletter]] had a regular segment on his program ''[[House Party]]'' called "Kids Say The Darnedest Things" -- later—later [[Spin-Off|spun off]] into a show itself -- initself—in which he interviewed children to solicit these kinds of observations for their comedic value. (Of course, being the 1960s, they were -- generally -- awere—generally—a bit milder than today's version.)
** Bill Cosby picked up this ball from 1998-2000, with the show ''Kids Say the Darndest Things'', which has yielded at least one compilation book.
