Ben's unending dialogue

So...Ben is a constant talker and the more he finds out about the world the more he wants to tell you about it...some examples:
"Mom where does lightning come from and what is it...is it light or is it fire...is it energy...where does it start...what color is it...can it hurt you...why do we have lightning..."
"Mom did you know you can run and put your hands on the couch and flip your legs up in the air and your body will go up...why?"
"Jacob did you know that the water that's in our bath comes through pipes down in the ground...then he gets a very high pitch voice and says isnt that cool"
"Mom do you know about the sun...you see there are these planets and they move around and then the moon moves around the earth (this is before my lesson by the way) and mom do you know what we could do that this is what I want you to do I'm the sun...now you walk around me and Jacob you walk around mommy (so I did it) and he taught the lesson...hehehee"
This dialogue went on for the whole day...including conversations about what would happen if the earth was closer to the sun and how God put us perfectly in place to not get burned up...
You know what this did...created a FEAR in Jakey of the sun...the kid would not leave the house today...THE SUN WILL BURN ME UP I SCARED!
I had to bribe him with chocolate to get him outside...
