Dinner Time Conversations

A sampling of the questions we try to field as we eat our dinner, all taken from about 10 minutes of our conversation:

• E- How does the sun shine to the earth?


• E- How do lights work?


• C- How do noodles get soft?


• C- Do we see different sides of the moon during day and night?


• C- Why do people get gifts on their birthday?


• E- Why are cups hard?

As we try to explain this questions, I with a pop can, plate and flashlight, Noel with explanations of photons, excited electrons, and filiments, we decided it was time to default to our nightly ritual of reading a chapter from a Narnia book.
