Answer for children of age 0-5

Water is made of tiny, tiny parts called molecules! 🌊 Each water molecule is like a little team of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. That’s why we call it H2O! 🎉

Water can be a liquid (like in a glass), a solid (like ice), or a gas (like steam). It’s magical! ✨

🌟 Fun fact!

Did you know? A water drop can hold up to 1 million billion water molecules! That’s more than all the stars in the sky! 🌟

💡Advice for parents

Focus on the idea of tiny parts (molecules) and the three forms of water (liquid, solid, gas). Use simple words like "tiny team" for atoms. Show examples like ice or steam to make it fun!

Answer for children of age 6-10

Water is made of molecules, and each molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (that’s why its formula is H2O). 💧

Atoms are like tiny building blocks. When they stick together, they form molecules! Water can change forms: liquid (water), solid (ice), and gas (steam). This happens because of temperature changes. ❄️🔥

🌟 Fun fact!

Fun fact: 70% of Earth’s surface is covered in water, and your body is about 60% water too! 🌍

💡Advice for parents

Explain atoms as "building blocks" and molecules as "teams". Use experiments (like freezing water) to show state changes. Mention how water is essential for life.

Answer for children of age 11-15

Water is a chemical compound made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O). The atoms are held together by covalent bonds, meaning they share electrons. 💡

Water exists in three states: liquid, solid (ice), and gas (water vapor). These changes happen due to temperature and pressure. For example, ice floats because water expands when it freezes! ❄️

Water is also called the universal solvent because it dissolves many substances, making it essential for life. 🌱

🌟 Fun fact!

Did you know? Less than 1% of Earth’s water is drinkable! Most is salty or frozen. 🧊

💡Advice for parents

Explain covalent bonds as "shared electrons". Discuss water’s unique properties (like expansion when freezing). Emphasize its role as a solvent and in ecosystems.
