Lets Learn more Proverbs, Idioms and Similes


As heavy as lead.

Go down like a lead balloon

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth

Like a bull in a china shop

As sturdy as an oak

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

There are proverbs for just about every circumstance, and they can be fit to any situation.
Here are some more proverbs for kids
Actions speak louder than words
Adversity makes strange bedfellows
After a storm comes a calm
All good things must come to an end
Examples of Proverbs
