Every night my daughters (ages 4 and 5) ask us all kinds of intriguing questions. Some of them are about things that I havent thought about in a long time. Some of them arent easy to address in a method that they can comprehend.

On an associated note, Next Vista for Learning hosts a great video explanation of onomatopoeia. The video was produced by a high school trainee for one of Next Vistas numerous student video creation contests.

Thats where I found this short and cute music video about onomatopoeia. Ill alert you, the song is kind of catchy (if youre a five-year-old)..
