Physics from a 3-year-old

We were reading together another book that Joe borrowed from the Children's Church library. There was a picture of a giant squid. And I asked him how a giant squid moves. He said this....
"It takes water into a special part of its body and then pushes it out from the back. When something goes back, then you can go forward."
I just smiled in amazement. The week before, he read another book - God thought of it first. It's about things around us and how the invention idea actually comes from creation e.g. the helicopter works like a hummingbird and and aeroplane works like a giant squid. I was just amazed at how he understood it and could explain it back to me.
