What is 5 hours?

What is 5 hours? It’s like having five long playtimes back-to-back, just like when you go to the park or your favorite toy store.

Imagine you start playing with your blocks at 10 o’clock. If you keep playing until 3 o’clock, that's one hour of fun. Now picture doing that, going from 10 to 3, five times in a row! That’s 5 hours of playtime.

Think about how tired you get after one long playtime at the park. If you had five of those, you’d probably be as full of energy as a balloon that just got pumped up again and again!

Sometimes, grown-ups say “we have to wait for 5 hours”, like when they're waiting for a train or a movie to start. It’s like counting five long naps one after another.

So next time you hear "5 hours," think of it as your favorite thing happening again and again, and again!
