Gait asked:

How do you explain philosophy to a 5 year-old or 10 year-old child?

============

Gareth Matthews has written a couple of wonderful books on how you explore (not explain)
philosophy with (not to) young children. See especially: Matthews, G. (1980) Philosophy and the
Young Child
Cambridge: Harvard University Press.
