How big is infinity? - Dennis Wildfogel

Infinity is like having a never-ending bag of candies, you can always take one more!

Imagine you have a big jar full of jellybeans. If you count them, you'll get to a number like 100 or even 1,000. But infinity isn’t like that, it’s like the jar never stops getting more jellybeans, no matter how long you count!

Now imagine two jars: one has jellybeans, and the other has gummy worms. At first, they seem different, one is sweet, one is chewy! But if both jars have infinite amounts of candy, it doesn’t matter which one you pick, each jar will always have just as many candies as the other.

But here’s a fun twist: what if you had two infinite jars, and then someone gave you another infinite jar? That’s like having infinity plus infinity, but guess what? It's still just infinity!

So, even though we can’t touch or see infinity, it can be as big as we want, and sometimes, it stays the same size no matter how much more we add! Infinity is like having a never-ending bag of candies, you can always take one more!
