Clouds and fog are both made of tiny water droplets floating in the air, just like sprinkles on ice cream!
What Makes Them Different
Clouds are up high, way above your head. They're like fluffy cotton candy that lives in the sky. You can see them from far away because they’re so high up.
Fog, on the other hand, is close to the ground, it’s like a cloud that has come down and wrapped around you! It makes things look blurry and mysterious, just like when you put a wet sock over your eyes.
How They're Made
Both clouds and fog form when warm air meets cool air. The warm air holds water droplets, and when the air cools, those droplets stick together, like when you pour water into a cold glass and see little drops on the outside.
Clouds are formed high up in the sky, while fog forms near the ground, that’s why one is far away and the other feels like it's right beside you! Clouds and fog are both made of tiny water droplets floating in the air, just like sprinkles on ice cream!
