🔔 Hook: The Magic of Grandma's Kitchen
One sunny morning, little Aarav helped his Grandma in the kitchen. He noticed she used a steel spoon to stir the hot soup, a wooden spatula to flip the dosa, and a clay pot to cook rice. Aarav wondered, "Why does Grandma use different things for different jobs?" 🤔
📚 Core Concepts: What Are Materials?
Materials are what things are made of! They can be hard, soft, heavy, or light. Different materials have special uses.
| Material | Example | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Metal (like steel) | Spoons, keys | Strong and heats slowly |
| Wood | Chairs, spatulas | Light and does not get hot fast |
| Clay | Pots, diyas | Keeps food warm and is natural |
| Plastic | Bottles, toys | Light and can be many colors |
See? Different materials help us in different ways! 🌈
