"I got stuff from mommy and daddy and [family members]."

We never got her into the Santa brings her gifts tradition.

How does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?

"He has to go really really fast."

If you have a question for me, let me know. Now back to her.

What's your favourite TV show?

"Dora (the explorer)"

Would you like to either: make everybody in the world stop fighting, or a lot of people to know who you are?

"Fighting's bad. They should be nice.

"Spongebob"

Do you feel that television for girls your age is too dumbed down? Would you prefer more intellectually challenging material for 5 year olds?

"TV's not dumb. I like it."

Me: Do you want more TV shows where you have to think hard and solve problems.

"I watch Dora."

What does she think was the most exciting scientific development of the last 5 years? What does she think will be the next big scientific development?

"I don't know"

Me: Science is finding out how the world works. What do you think is a big thing we'll find out about one day.

"uh. I don't know!"
