Bored kid to mother at the sewing machine:  

 

"Mu-u-m, what are you making?"  

 

"A whim-wham for a goose's bridle"

Bored kid to father as he's hammering/nailing....

Oh, my goodness! that brings back memories - another one of MILs sayings. She also used to describe anything messy as looking like a packapoo ticket. Being a Pom I'd never come across that expression and it was years before I discovered what a packapoo ticket actually was.
