My DD was impeccable with her timing of such questions - usually as you were rushing somewhere or stood waiting at the school gate with loads of other mums.
Some of her best at the age of 2 were why is the sky blue, where does the wind come from and what's behind the sky.

Mine asked recently why the sky was called the sky and I did not know.

Wiki said this: The word sky comes from the Old Norse sky, meaning 'cloud, abode of God'.
