Pot of gold

One evening after the rain, we spotted rainbow in the sky. And my princess asked me what is at the end of the rainbow. Well, in science, rainbow is a collection of 7 colours form after a light shower. Like a reflection of the sun. So I explained to my 6 years old princess, that rainbow is just colours formed after the rain and when the sun shines onto the rain drops in the sky. Correct me if I am wrong!

And my Princess was slightly disappointed and asked me "Are you sure?". And when I asked her why, she told me that she thought at the end of the rainbow there would be a pot of gold, just like in the cartoon series of Jack and the Neverland Pirates! Oh well, too much cartoons.

Need to tell her what is real and what is fantasy!
