why is the sky blue?

Sean's first word or rather words were "good girl". I suppose I over emphasized positive reinforcement for Maggie, our Golden Retriever, former spoiled baby of the house. Maybe it was the teacher in me. Maybe peacekeeper.

Fast forward three years and the words are now sentences, paragraphs and questions. A three year old sure is inquisitive. "Why does that dinosaur tail have spikes?" "Why is it getting so dark outside?" "Why are there so many acorns?" Why, why, why.

I miss Wondertime Magazine. You can still access various articles here but they are lumped in with Family Fun. One monthly feature was "Tell Me Why" in which a question was posed, followed by a child's answer, an expert's answer, and then "How to Explain it to Kids". Wondertime was truly unique in understanding kids and inspiring parents.

So, here's a new resource for those questions posed by kids. Whyzz. Questions are found under categories: nature, science, world, human body, animals, serious issues and creativity and imagination. You can comment on an answer, like it, print it, send it to a friend, look up related questions and even experiment.
