Have you ever noticed how many questions little kids ask, im listing below the top 5 and im wondering if you could help me finish.
#1. why is the sky blue?(does anyone really know)
#2. where do babies come from?(no not storks)
#3. whats a hoo hoo look like?(this is a question from my 5 year old cousian brook)
#4. they like to repeat why after every sentence
#5. do girls really have cooties and what are cooties?

I have actually had kids ask me these questions, try answering some of them(lol)
but really maybe you have some better ones.

#1 - The light from the sun (which is white light - light with all the colours of the spectrum) enters out atmosphere. Part of it, however, is refracted, and the wavelength that is rfracted is... blue :).
Of course, it's easier to just tell the little kids the sky is reflecting the sea - not true, but it shuts 'em up ;).

#2 - I'll tell you when you're older.
Maybe.

#3 - I don't know. It's probably blue though.

#4 - Then you reply to them 'Why won't you shut up?' and then simply ask 'why' after each of their answers.
Let them suffer a little bit.

#5 - Yes they do. Never touch girls. They're evil.

Aren't cooties fictional?

Girls are inherently evil. Sorry, manipulating minds requires it.

The archaic meaning for cooties is lice. So when you read about a girl's cooties, and she's wearing a handkerchief that is soaked in kerosene, most likely she has lice.

The meaning has slightly altered from that though.

I am a girl. I am evil. I have cooties. I am very manipulative and conceited.
