My kids' conversation

S is 4 years old, and E is 7. E was being kinda a wise guy, methinks.

S: Why does the sun come up in the day?
E: Because it wants to.
S: Yup.

S: Why does the rainbow live in the sky?
E: Because that's where it lives.
S: Right.

S: Why do books want you to read them?
E: So you can hear the story.
S: Yup.

S: Why do bracelets get made by other people?
E: Because people wanna make them.
S: Yup.

S: Why do newspapers not walk?
E: Because they're not real.
S: Uh huh.

S: Why do instruments make noise?
E: Because people want them to.
S: Yup.

S: Why you can eat some stuff and why you can't eat some stuff?
E: Because some stuff tastes like gunk.
S: Mmm-hmm.

S: Why is tape very sticky?
E: Because people want them to be sticky.
S: Yeah!!
