Needed to stop by the post office with my 3yo in the car. He said "what's a post office". "A place where they send letters" said I. He came inside and was disappointed to not see the alphabet being sent to people from a central office.

I don't like to say "on a {time period + ly} basis". Not sure why we add a bunch of words. "They check our papers on an hourly basis" can be stated "they check our papers hourly"
