Imagine if every time you heard the word blue, it felt like you were wearing a blue shirt. That's what some people experience, they see, hear, or feel things in ways others don't. This is called synesthesia, and it’s like your brain gives extra powers to certain senses.
Examples
- When Sarah hears the word chocolate, she feels like she’s eating it.
- Tom sees the color red when he reads the letter A.
- Every time Lily says crisp, she tastes a fresh apple.
