Why?

Why do we have these Horse Chestnuts on bits of string?

So you can play Conkers

What are conkers?

You're holding them

So what do we do?

You hit each others Conker until it breaks

Why?

For fun

Huh?

It's a game - it's fun - have a go

No - it's flipping dangerous - you've not given us any safety goggles and we might get bits in our eyes.  We might miss and hit ourselves with the conkers and get bruises.  We're delicate - we can't do stuff like that!!!!!!!!  sheesh.....................
