Gravity is like a invisible string that pulls things together. Imagine if you and your friend each had a big magnet, you'd be pulled toward each other just like the Earth pulls you down when you jump up! It’s what makes apples fall from trees, why we stay on the ground, and even how planets move around the Sun.
Examples
- If you drop a toy car from your bed, it falls to the floor because of gravity.
- Your dog stays on Earth instead of floating away, thanks to gravity!
- When you bounce a ball up and down, gravity pulls it back toward your hand.
