Opening the Door to Lifelong Curiosity

A list of questions my three-year-old asked me this week:

How close is the moon? How do the birds get out of the sky? Why do animals lie down? How do airplanes not fall?

Like most toddlers, she holds an inexhaustible supply of questions inside her. They bubble up whenever she’s confronted with a new experience, which—as someone who’s only been on the planet for a few years—is often. The questions my daughter asks also tell me something about her natural interests. For example, this week I can tell that she’s fascinated by animals and the sky.
