If you don't have children then pretend you do for this. Don't talk as if your explaining it to a regular person. Talk as if you were speaking to a child who has no idea what death is.

"Well you see, to go to sleep and then your body gets eaten up by insects and becomes waste. Have fun!"

No really, i would probably say it's like going to sleep but you never wake up and you never have dreams.

"Daddy, what is death?"

"Uhm... Go ask your mother sweetheart, daddy is busy... guarding the tv."

"Death is what happens when you cease to be a living person, and become a dead person"
or something like that.
Or, alternatively:
"Mega-nap time".

death is the point in which all life comes to an end, you and me both have the ability to move, think, and feel. death is the point when that all ends. there may be another life at the end but no one is sure. just don't fear it.

fine... I'll get you ice cream, just stop crying!

Me: It's a word.

Me: Go get a dictionary you little shit.

"Death is a nap you don't wake up from"

If you believe in it: "Death is a journey to the afterlife."

"Death is the Great Equalizer."

If I have kids, I'm gonna be completely honest with 'em. Tell them things as they are, and as they grow up they'll come to understand them, even if it doesn't make sense to them at the moment.

It's like going to sleep without dreaming, but you never wake up.

Any kid of mine will be a fucked up cynic.

"A point in time when someone can't be here anymore"
"Where people go after life"
"The time where people go to heaven"

...wow I'm bad at explaining stuff to kids.

You say that, but when you have a traumatized kid on your hands don't run to us. (Not that you would.)

Death is going to a farm up north where you can run around and play in the fields all day.
