Answering questions is not as hard as we make it - at least I don't think so. If you only answer the child's question (taking into consideration their age and interest), and don't try to give them the whole story (or what you'd prepared to tell them) I think it all goes better. This goes for any topic too. Let the children take you where they want to go - they'll let you know when they're satisfied. Plus when they're younger they're satisfied much earlier than we are I think!! LOL
Take care and best wishes to you too. How fun that we both have two year olds.
