Patterns are like a game that nature plays with shapes. Imagine you're planting flowers, and each time you add one, it follows the same rule, grow bigger, turn slightly, and repeat! That's why we see spirals in shells, leaves on trees, or even honeycombs, they all follow simple rules that make them repeat.
Examples
- A seashell has spirals because each new layer follows the same rule.
- Tree branches repeat their pattern like a set of arms stretching out.
- Honeycombs have rows that follow the same shape again and again.
