Gravity

A conversation that took place between me and 5- year old RaKell:


RaKell: What's gravity?
Mom: Well, if you jumped off this chair what would happen?
R: I would land on the floor.
M: Yes. Gravity is what holds things to the earth. If you drop something it falls down instead of flying up.
R: Aaaawwww. I want to fly.
M: You can,  in an airplane.
R: I want to fly by myself.
M: That would be so fun.
R: Why can't I fly by myself?
M: People weren't made to fly.
R: Yeah,  just fairies.
M: And dragons.
R: Mom,  dragons aren't real.
M: Oh, and fairies are?
R: Ummmmm yyyyeah.
