Went to the store with my 5 year old and she asked why there were so many cereal choices. I told her 'because there are a lot of choices in life and you have to pick wisely.' She picked Froot Loops. Then I realized I sound like my dad and I'm not even 40 yet.
OK so what did you tell her? Because I've got a 5 year old who asks questions like this and I never know if I'm supposed to give the real answer or make it funny.
This is the kind of moment that makes parenting actually fun. What was her reaction?
The cereal aisle is a dangerous place. My kids treat it like they're picking out their entire personality for the week based on the box design.

The cereal aisle with a 5 year old is basically a hostage situation. So many options and they want the one with the most sugar.
