    The next question I’d expect from a little kid would be “why is your hair long?”.

    And another why, and another, and another…

      A good way to break the unending question sequence is to ask them what they think about whatever they asked.

      “Why is your hair long?” “Well, why do you think someone might have long hair?”

        As a dad of a three year old with a VERY ravenous appetite for knowledge, I can confirm this. It somehow also feels like that kinda seems to be developing some thinking skills because the kid is sometimes surprisingly profound and has a magnificent imagination.
