Space-obsessed four year old last week:
“My head is full of questions, Dad. There are eight planets in our solar system. Four rocky planets, and four gas and ice planets. Do the gas planets have a rocky core?”
Space-obsessed four year old today:
“Daa-aad. What’s in Uranus?”
@david I can see his grin from here while he's asking that.
@ghostdancer yeah, he knows it’s funny, but not why.
@david Years ago, I was walking home from school with my 6 year old son. Most parents were answering probing questions like : 'What's for tea?, When will Dad be home ? Can Janet come for a sleepover?'
My lad looked skywards and asked 'Dad - do you ever wonder why the sky is blue?'
