Show-and-tell is a classroom activity where a student brings something to school and describes it to their class. This is often done as a way to get to know the student better and develop communication skills. Since the possibilities for what a student can show and tell are endless, this can lead to all sorts of stories. Bringing something wacky to school often gives a good indication of a child's personality.
Common variations of this trope include:
The protagonist going to great lengths to obtain something impressive for show-and-tell, only for their rival to show up with something even more amazing that blows the class away.
The protagonist bringing something strange to show-and-tell that they think is cool, only for everyone to be weirded out or disgusted by it.
Someone bringing a living thing (such as a pet) to show-and-tell, only for it to run away, cause chaos, get lost, or fail to perform on command.
A young student bringing something dirty or inappropriate to show-and-tell, without understanding what it really is.
If a student brings in something valuable or fragile for show-and-tell, there's a good chance it will end up destroyed (accidentally or otherwise) for the sake of drama.

In Yoko's Show-and-Tell by Rosemary Wells, Yoko wants to bring her china doll, Miki, to show-and-tell, but her mother says no because the doll is fragile. Yoko secretly brings her anyway, but Miki becomes damaged and dirty after the Franks grab her and toss her around on the bus. Fortunately, she is able to be repaired at the doll hospital.

The Simpsons:
In the episode "Brother From the Same Planet", Bart brings his "big brother" Tom's military "neural disruptor" gun to show-and-tell, and he stuns Martin with it. It proves to be a tough act to follow for Milhouse's toy horse.
At the beginning of "Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song", Bart scrambles to find something to bring to show-and-tell before the bus comes, and he ends up bringing his dog Santa's Little Helper.
In "Stop, Or My Dog Will Shoot!", Bart brings his new pet python to school for Show and Tell, and it ends up eating Martin Prince's own pet rabbit, complete with it fully digesting the poor thing. Mrs. Krabappel calls him out over it.
During the credits of the short Welcome to the Club, Lisa, who has joined the Disney Villains, is seen holding a show and tell about volcanoes, for which she brought Hades — who frightens the students with his flame powers — with her to school.

Clarence:
In "Detention", Clarence purposely rips a huge fart for show-and-tell so he can get detention.
In the Cold Opening of "Lil' Buddy", Clarence shows the class a commercial for the Lil' Buddy doll for show-and-tell and then shows them his own Lil' Buddy, which is all dirty, torn, and missing some hair. The students and Ms. Baker are too unnerved by the commercial and the state of Clarence's doll to comment.

Arthur:
In "Binky Barnes, Wingman", during show and tell presentations for Bug Week, George does a presentation on stink bugs. The stink bugs smelled up the classroom and everybody leaves while pinching their noses. Buster uses termites on a log to show to the class but ended up wasting everyone's time.
In Arthur's Perfect Christmas, George brought a tin of smelly fishes for show and tell just before Christmas vacation. The fishes he has were part of a Swedish holiday and passes it to his classmates. Everyone in class was disgusted by the fishes except for Buster who seems to enjoy them.

With Pearl and Ruby Glowing: When Alice was five years old, her great uncle Buck gave her some teeth that he got when he knocked out a communist's teeth in a Soviet gulag, so she showed them to her kindergarten class for show and tell. Unfortunately, she was under the impression that a communist was a monster and told everyone that Buck killed a communist, which upsets Mirabel because her Abuelo Pedro was a part of Los Communistas.

Unfortunately for him, because of Daemons’ bad rap, he accidentally freaks out the entire class, and becomes a bullying target as result.

We Need to Talk About Kevin: Played for Drama — one of the earliest signs of Kevin's cruelty involves his classmate "Muffet's" show-and-tell in kindergarten. She brings an heirloom tea set and passes out teacups so the class can have a tea party. When Kevin drops his teacup on the floor and it smashes into bits, all the other children do too, and then they smash the saucers and spoons before the teacher can do anything. By the time Muffet's mother picks up her sobbing daughter, the only thing left intact is the teapot.

SuperMarioLogan: In "Bowser Junior's Summer School, Part 3", Junior wants to bring a cool toy to show and tell to impress his classmates, but he doesn't think any of his toys are cool enough, so he asks Chef Pee Pee, Bowser's personal chef, to come with him. At Summer School, Cody shows off his numerous medications (which takes over thirty minutes), Cecelia shows off a taco she bought from Taco Bell, Junior shows off Chef Pee Pee, Black Yoshi shows off his copy of Call of Duty: Ghosts, Pixie Goblin shows off his sword (and Officer Goodman arrests him for bringing a weapon to school as a result), Chris the Cucumber shares a "fact" that isn't true (Hawaii is a planet), Joseph shows off his phone (which is cracked from all the times he dropped it), and Toad shows an "educational" music video, which depicts him twerking with a woman. Paul and Tanner didn't bring anything, due to the former having no arms, and the latter claiming he was too cool to bring something.

Peanuts: Sally is almost as bad for this as Calvin:
She once brought Snoopy for Show-and-tell, but was less than pleased that the beagle was flirting with a girl in the front row.
On another occasion she brought something that would "thrill you, chill you, and fill you with fear". She was still doing the build-up when she was told to sit down, and complained "all the drama has gone out of show-and-tell".
She brought her "famous leaf collection", stopped her discussion for her "sponsors", the sun and the rain, and was again sent back to her seat, muttering "First they want you to show-and-tell, then they don't want you to show-and-tell."
She once brought in a turtle she saved when it was trying to cross the road. After a word from the teacher, she amended this to "For show-and-tell I have a hubcap I saved when it was trying to cross the road."
She brought in an "authentic bird's nest", and explained that they're difficult to build, so she'd also brought the owner himself to describe this. After Woodstock's usual " ' ' ' ' ' ", she asked him what happened after the fight with the planning commission.
A non-Sally example: Linus once brought his own duplicates of the Dead Sea Scrolls to show-and-tell. On the way to school he explained to Charlie Brown and Lucy how they were found and their theological significance. Lucy then asked if Charlie Brown had brought anything:

One FoxTrot Sunday strip saw Jason's class do show and tell; his teacher tells him afterwards that she's not letting him sign up for it again because all he ever brings is his old math tests.

Kindergarten: Show and tell occurs at the end of the day and each student has to present something (though to keep the day from dragging, only the protagonist is shown presenting something). What happens after depends on what is presented.
If the principal's bomb is presented, the bomb detonates, killing the player.
If you present a monstermon card, Ms. Applegate will consider your presentation unoriginal and boring before saying that you are skipped.
Presenting a love letter to Lilly that nugget wrote results in Nugget triggering a bomb he handed you earlier in retaliation.
Presenting a hall pass, a knife, or having nothing to present gets you sent to the Principal's office, where you are shot as punishment. Yes, that is even for not having anything to present.
There are some items that should get you in trouble but don't for one reason or another. These items include a bucket of blood, Principal's Key, a Severed Finger, and a flask. If you present any of these items, Ms. Applegate will either disregard them (bucket of blood and flask) or fail to recognize them as actually being a problem (Principal's Key and severed finger).
Bringing Cindy's bloody shoe will lead to Applegate giving you a Monstermon card for reminding her of the 'incident'.

The Hazbin Hotel episode "Masquerade" begins with the guests taking part in a show-and-tell exercise hosted by Charlie. Angel shows a porn flick he starred in involving an interrogator threatening to rape him, which everyone is appropriately disgusted by except for Niffty (who enjoys it) and Husk (who is not impressed and calls Angel "fake").

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever: In first grade, Claude Herdman brings his wild pet cat in a box for show-and-tell after not feeding it for two days. When he opens the box, it jumps out and starts hissing and running around, clawing everything in sight. The teacher yells for her students to run out into the hall, grabs a broom, and puts a coat over her head, trying to corner the cat. She completely destroys the classroom in the process, knocking over a dollhouse, a globe, and an aquarium full of goldfish. The cat ends up eating most of the goldfish and two pet mice that another girl brought to show-and-tell. Later, she asks Claude why he didn't come and get his cat, to which he simply replies that she told him to go out and wait outside the classroom with the other children.

Ramona Quimby: In "Ramona the Pest", Howie doesn't have anything for kindergarten's first show-and-tell. At her mother's urging, Ramona runs to her house and grabs a stuffed rabbit her cat, Picky Picky, has been using for a hunting target so that Howie will have something to share. When their teacher, Miss Binney, can't coax Howie to tell the class much of anything about the toy, she ties a red ribbon around the rabbit's neck. Howie insists that Miss Binney gave him the ribbon, but Ramona keeps insisting it's hers because her rabbit is wearing it. The fight over the ribbon is only settled when Howie offers to turn Ramona's tricycle into a two-wheeler by removing one of the rear wheels. Ramona is delighted and decides to weave the ribbon through the spokes of one wheel so it will make a red blur when she rides.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: In the first book, Manny comes across a heavy metal magazine that his big brother Rodrick owns and takes it to his school for show-and-tell, much to his teacher's horror, as the cover has a photo of a bikini-clad woman lying across the hood of a car. Rodrick gets in trouble with his mom for this, as she is a Moral Guardian who doesn't approve of such things.

Little Bill: In "The Promise", Little Bill wants to take his Cat's Eye Marble to school for show-and-tell, only for Alice the Great to remind him that he did that last week. Little Bill needs something new to bring to school for show-and-tell, and when he sees April's basketball trophy, he wants to borrow it. April lets Little Bill borrow the trophy under the condition that he promises not to break it. The next day, Little Bill's friends don't listen to his warnings not to touch the trophy, and end up breaking it, with the basketball getting lost. Little Bill's promise to April also ends up broken, resulting in April yelling at Little Bill and slamming her door in his face. To make it up to April, Little Bill, with Bobby's help, fixes the trophy, using his marble to replace the missing basketball.

In the Happy Tree Friends episode "Something Fishy", Russell brings his pet piranha to show and tell. Naturally, it ends up causing most of the bloodshed in this episode when it escapes from its bowl.

2 Stupid Dogs: In "Show and Tell", Kenny brings the dogs to school for show and tell. During his presentation, Kenny mentions that the dogs are male, and to prove it he picks up Little Dog by the hind legs and pretty much flashes the whole classroom.

Kiff: At Table Town School, Show and Tell is called “Bring a Thing Day�, in which the one who brings the best thing is showered with praise. In “Hat�, Barry (who has a history of bringing boring things, like the color beige) brings his lucky hat, which not only earns him the win but gives him the chance to show off his hat at a presentation in front of the school. Unfortunately, Kiff winds up losing the hat before the ceremony, and her efforts to get it back attract a bunch of people trying to steal the hat before it’s ultimately destroyed. Kiff then poses as Barry’s hat at the ceremony, leading Barry to realize the real treasure wasn’t the hat, but the confidence it brought him.
