Imagine a candle as a tiny volcano. When you light it, the wax melts and becomes hot, like lava flowing out of the mountain. The warm air around the flame rises up, pulling more cold air in from below, that’s why the flame seems to rise, like a magic fire dancing in the sky.
Examples
- A candle flame rises like steam rising from a hot cup of tea.
- The flame moves upward just like smoke from a chimney.
- Lighting a candle in a room makes the air feel warmer near the top.
