Darkness is like when you hide under your blanket and everything around you becomes quiet and cozy.
When You Can't See
Darkness means there’s not enough light to see clearly. It's like being in a room with all the lights off, you can’t see your toys or your favorite stuffed animal, but you might still feel them next to you. That’s why sometimes darkness feels safe, just like when you're tucked in tight and everything is calm around you.
When You’re Scared
But sometimes darkness feels scary too, it's like being in a room with all the lights off and hearing a loud noise. You don’t know what’s coming, so your imagination might make things look bigger or creepier than they are.
Darkness is just light taking a little break, and when you want to see again, you can turn on a lamp, open the door, or even just blink your eyes!
