When about aged two and a half a friend's son seemed to always have his hand down his nappy. One afternoon he came into the room saying, "Mummy mummy, my willy has a bone in it!"
He knew that your arms and legs had bones in them (after breaking his arm) and had worked ot that his willy must have too since it had become stiff!
I thought this was quite good logic!
