When you have kids, your household can get pretty busy. And you’re probably always coming and going. That’s why from time to time, you have to find clever ways to communicate with your children.

Lots of parents don’t like texting their kids. Instead, they just leave them notes. For moms and dads with a great sense of humor, they leave their kids some hilarious messages. Sometimes, the notes are so funny, they end up on the internet for everyone to enjoy. Just look at some of the best.

Note to messy kids

Sometimes, kids make messes and don’t bother to clean them up. So, one dad decided to leave his kids a threatening note. It’s written like it was from the movie “Taken.”

Don’t be lazy

Do you remember the summer as a kid? You got to be lazy…all day long. One mom had to remind her kids to do something you’d, well, expect them to do. Don’t be so dang lazy.

Best dad ever

Every kid would love to see this note from their dad. He explains he went out to dinner with family but was kind enough to leave money for them to buy pizza and beer. The funny part was where he left the cash… in the sleeping cat’s paws.

Getting their beauty sleep

Sometimes, parents just need a morning to themselves. So, this mom and dad wrote a note telling their kids they were sleeping in. They answered all the questions their kids would likely ask…and it was hilarious.

Spoiler alert

This mom had already read the same George R. R. Martin book her son was reading. Then he found a note on his book one day. Oh, come on…she basically gave the plot away.

Scarred for life

One dad wants to make sure his son eats his lunch. So, he puts a funny “#dadfact” inside the lunchbox. It’s even written on a napkin.

Different parenting styles

Two parents wrote their same child different notes. The one from his mom was super cute, reminding him not to forget sunscreen. His dad’s, well… you can tell it was from his dad.

Don’t make mom mad

A mom spent a lot of time cleaning the kitchen, and you can tell she’s totally over it. She wrote a threatening note to her kids to remind them to keep it clean. While it might’ve had a funny tone, there’s no doubt she means business.

Um…okay then

One kid’s parents left him a note telling him to lock the doors and to not drink and drive. It also said he could only have three girls over at a time. This is either good or bad parenting…we can’t decide.

A helpful reminder

This mom wanted to remind her daughter that the car takes diesel fuel. So, she got the point across by writing a funny note. It made her laugh so hard, let’s hope she remembered the message when pulling up to the gas pump.

Moms writing memes

This mom thought if she left a meme telling her kids to do the dishes, it might get their attention. It’s a clever idea and definitely funny. Her kids probably didn’t think so, though.

This mom is scary

It seems as though this mom doesn’t want her kids to get food out of the basement fridge. Eating a cat and starving are higher on her list of things to do. Who knows what’s in there?

All of these parents are so funny. Their kids might not like being told what to do but at least they’re going to get a laugh out of it.
