What is Hi," "bye?

"What is Hi," "bye?" is like when you meet a friend at the park and say "Hi!", and later when you leave, you say "Bye!", it's how we greet each other and say we're going away.

Saying Hello

When you see someone you know, like your mom or best friend, and you want to show you’re happy to see them, you say "Hi!". It’s like giving them a little wave or a big smile, it means you’re glad they're there.

Saying Goodbye

When you finish playing with your toys or it's time for bed, you might say "Bye!" to your friend or family. It’s like saying "I’ll see you later!" and giving them a little hug or wave, it means you're going away but you'll come back.

So next time you hear "Hi!", think of it as a friendly greeting, and when you say "Bye!", imagine it's like telling someone you’re on your way to another adventure.
