Big stones are very heavy rocks that you might find on the ground or in a river, like the ones you step over when you're playing outside.
Imagine you’re walking through a park, and instead of little pebbles under your feet, there are huge rocks. That’s what big stones are like! They’re just regular rocks, but much bigger and heavier than the small ones you might find in your sandbox.
What makes them special?
Big stones can be found in different places:
- In a river, they might be smooth from all the water moving around them.
- In a forest, they could be rough and covered in moss or lichen.
- Sometimes, they’re even buried under the ground and need to be dug up.
They’re not magic, just really strong and big. You can’t carry them easily, but if you push one with your whole body, it might move just a little bit!
