Symbols are like pictures that tell stories or show ideas. In some cultures, a cross means religion, but in others, it might be just a shape people like. Kids use symbols all the time, like emojis to say how they feel without talking.
Examples
- A heart shape means love in most places, but sometimes it’s just a pink flower.
- In one culture, the moon is a symbol of sadness; in another, it represents beauty and romance.
- A red flag can mean danger in some cultures or good luck in others.
