Nothing in my life has prepared me to answer that question, let alone to a 5-year-old.

Definitely.

In this case I had on the music video for the song "Transcendental Cha Cha Cha" which features several lyrics that mention the word "reality." Probably my kid was just asking the literal meaning of the word but they got distracted before we could discuss it further.
