A former co-worker described for me that one of her sons (she had two boys at ages 4 and 6 at the the time, if I recall correctly) asked her where babies came from. She decided to tackle this one by explaining everything to them using the official technical terms for all body parts and actions.
When her husband came home that night, he asked the kids what they had done that day, and the youngest one said, "We learned where babies come from!"
"Well, where do they come from?" he asked.
"From China!" replied the youngest one.
