Have you ever noticed being a parent you need to answer alot of Why's some I can answer but many I have no answer for. I will start with the easy questions. -- wait most are not easy to explain
Why are plants leaves green - If my son was in grade 9 I could explain it, but how do explain to a 3yr old i have found the best answer is because that is the way God decided they should be or because that is the way they are.
Why do birds fly and why can"t I fly like a bird or Superman? -- how do answer this question to a 3 yr old -- Superman is from another planet so he has special powers. Birds hmmm. this is a tough one to answer how do I explain to a 3 yr old that birds have hollow bones allowing them to be filled with air in order to fly.
Why does Batman drive and Spiderman doesn't - another one that is hard to explain.
Why do the cars on TV float can we take the Escape in the water. -- How do explain that TV is not real to a 3 yr old that there is no way the Escape can become a submarine like the mini in the commercial.
Why does my shadow follow me. ok this one is easy to explain the sun casts a reflection of you on the ground that is attached to your feet and will go along with you. Yes classic Peter Pan when sun disappears no more shadow.
Why Why how do I answer these questions to a 3 yr old
Why do I have a ridge under my noise that goes to my lip -- how do i answer this one
Why does mum always say reach when she is not on the cell phone.
Why do fishes live in water why can't I take them out
Why does Nana's cat Smurf say Meow.
Oh the simple childhood mind how do I explain simple things in a way he will understand.
The whys's we take for granted the why's we have learned to live with as we grow older and wiser.
Oh the fresh mind that tests us parents and makes us wonder.
