German kids are kinder

[Allen]

Kinder is German for kid (children).

[JB White]

Love it. A good play on words. Spelling-wise anyway.
Verbally it’s lost in translation.

[Allen]

I believe it is pronounced as "kin-der"

[JB White]

That really doesn’t reflect the pronunciation. But yes, you are correct.
Kin as in kinfolk and amazingly…. Kindergarten!
