When you freeze water, it turns into ice. Imagine tiny water molecules that are always moving around like a group of kids playing tag. When the temperature drops and they get cold enough, they slow down and start holding hands in a neat line, this makes ice! It's like when you cool soup until it becomes a solid block. The water gets smaller too because the molecules arrange themselves more tightly together.
Examples
- Your popsicle expands when it freezes inside its wrapper.
