My granddaughter is 3 this summer, her name is Lily. I showed her some lily buds in the yard a few weeks ago and told her they were almost ready to bloom. She said, "Yeah, they BOOM!" I tried in vain to explain. She'e thinking fireworks. Two days ago she was over and I showed her the blooming lilies. She ran around shouting, "Boom! Boom! Boom!" She didn't want to understand it any other way.
