Lil Man: Ma, does a ball roll down a slide or slide down a slide?

Me: I guess you would say it does both.

Lil Man: No. It only rolls. Round objects roll and objects with flat sides like rectangles, triangles and squares, slide.

Lil Man: All the colours in the rainbow mixed together make what colour?

Me: Black

Lil Man: If you take away all the colours in the rainbow what colour do you have?

Me: White

Lil Man: No. If you take away something then you don't have it anymore. Just like when you subtract. So if you take away all the colours you have NO color.

Lil Man: Ma, when clouds hit each other they cause the thunder. What cause lightning?

Me: Ummmm (paranoid to answer by this time because I've been wrong every time) maybe electricity in the sky. Ummm. I don't know.

Lil Man: Friction from the clouds. When two things rub against each other and get hot they cause sparks. Just like when Bear Grylls rubbed the sticks together and caused fire.
