What is tactics?

Tactics are like the clever moves you make when playing a game to win.

Imagine you're building a tower with blocks, that's your goal. But sometimes, another player tries to knock it down. You need tactics to keep your tower standing. Maybe you place bigger blocks at the bottom so it doesn’t tip over easily, or you hide some extra blocks under your shirt to surprise them later.

Tactics are like planning a secret mission with your friends. If you want to sneak into the kitchen for snacks without being caught, you might whisper to your friend first, that’s your tactic. Maybe you also tiptoe instead of walking normally, or you wait until everyone is watching TV.

You use tactics when you’re playing hide-and-seek, when you're solving a puzzle, even when you're trying to get the most pizza slices in a family fight. It’s like having a little plan inside your head that helps you win or stay safe, without needing magic!
