First off, weird to point out that they're "age appropriate"

If your kid reads above the age level and understands it that's generally a good thing

Number two I don't get why this is such a weird concept on how to explain things to a child. Seems pretty normal and "age appropriate"

Not only that, it'd be better to ask the kid why oxygen tanks are needed on spacecraft, then ask why we don't need them here on earth.

It's a weird post, in general.
