"To make money" was actually the correct answer, modulo however much of that you want to explain to your two year old.

Distinguish the work that you do/love, with the place you go to do it and the economic arrangement associated with that place.

If you love what you do, you'd probably do it exactly how and where you want, IFF you didn't need to make a living.

Otherwise, if you're lucky, you can find a place where you can mostly do what you love, but make no mistake, you're "going to work" to bring back money.
