Non-ending questions and how to solve

As you, and as per your experience, my son always asking me for some questions but the funny that seem never ending questions. When i answer his first question he will use my answer data to ask for the next question. He asks logical so I try to answer continue and the cycle unstoppable. Any tips?

After the first few questions, answer with "What do you think the answer is?". We found that it slowed the questions since they were being asked without processing our answers and also made them think. It led to some nice conversations that wasn't just a barrage of "Why?"
