On the Hot Seat

The ten minute drive to take Charlie to school is always filled with big questions:

• Why is it not warm even though the sun's out?
• How do vampires grow their teeth?

And my personal favorite:

• How does food get bad?

For most of the questions I try to explain in simplest terms, if I even know the answer, but for that last question I was stumped. How in the world do you explain the science of food spoiling to a four-year-old?

I'll update with more questions, if I can remember them. He's got an very inquisitive mind and I love it!
