Earthquakes can make volcanoes erupt. Imagine a volcano that’s been quiet for years, like it's taking a nap. An earthquake is like shaking the ground really hard, this shake might wake the volcano up and cause it to erupt.
Examples
- The volcano had been quiet for years, like it was taking a nap, then an earthquake woke it up.
- A big earthquake cracked the Earth’s surface, letting out hot lava from deep inside.
