My wife get's crazy looks from family members for accurately describing how biological processes work using correct terminology to our three year old. The result is a kid that says things like, "grandpa your body makes sweat and you have sweat glands" and "this tastes good on my taste buds." It's pretty funny but also really encouraging. She has an amazing vocabulary for her age and I attribute this largely to us not talking down to her but actually taking the time to answer the seemingly unending amount of questions she has. -It's a blast.
