Imagine you're holding a ball. When you let go, it falls to the ground, that’s gravity at work! Gravity is like an invisible hand pulling things toward each other. Magnetism is different because it only pulls certain materials together, like magnets and metal. Gravity works on everything, not just special stuff.
Examples
- A ball falls to the ground because of gravity
- You don’t feel magnetism unless you have a magnet near your hand
