Genius Idea: Whether you have children of your own, or simply look after or spend time with them, you're very likely to find yourself in a situation where you're stumped by the questions that they throw at you at any given time, and on any given subject matter. You probably know the answer, but do you know a child-appropriate answer for those extra tough questions? Whyzz does, and they can help quell those inquisitive minds with suitable answers for children whether you're at home or on the go.

You can use Whyzz by either typing in the exact question you're hoping to find a good answer to, search by keywords, or browse by categories. Whatever your method, you're bound to find an explanation related to your child's "Why" questions.

They've got the standards like death, sex, and pregnancy covered, but Whyzz also has answers for those strange questions that only occur to children. Answers are penned by staff writers, psychologists, experts, and site members (which do require review), so you'll notice that they're fairly replete with information, tips, and talking points.

As a site member, you can bookmark the articles/answers you like, add comments to entries, and view all the content you've contributed to the site. The mobile-friendly version of the site is also easy to use from any smart phone.

So the next time you find yourself stuttering over how to explain to a child why they shouldn't pee in the pool, or what a booger is, you can turn to Whyzz to answer those questions and possibly educate yourself in the process.
