A poll is like asking your friends what game to play next and counting who picks which one.
Imagine you and your friends are at a park. You all want to play a game, but no one can agree on which one. So, someone says, "Let’s ask everyone what they want to play!" That's like doing a poll, it helps you find out what most people want.
How It Works
In a poll, each person picks their favorite option, and then you count how many votes each choice gets. The one with the most votes wins!
For example, if your friends pick between tag, hide-and-seek, or soccer, and 6 kids choose tag, 4 choose hide-and-seek, and 2 want soccer, then tag is the winner because it got the most votes.
