A typical conversation with Bryan, my three-year-old….<\/p>\n
Me: Bryan, Look. It’s raining.
\nBryan: Why is it raining?
\nMe: Because there’s too much water in the cloud. And when there’s too much water in the cloud, water drops fall and becomes rain.
\nBryan: Why is there too much water in the cloud?
\nMe: Because water evaporates into the air and eventually end up in the cloud.
\nBryan: What is “evaporate”?
\nMe: ….
\nBryan: Why is water falling from the sky? Is there a big hole in the sky?
\nMe: …. Um, no.
\nBryan: Is the sky hard (as opposed to soft)?
