Imagine you and your friend each have a magic coin that always lands the same way, even if you're miles apart. If one of you flips theirs and it lands heads, you both know the other’s landed heads too, no matter how far away they are! That’s like quantum entanglement: particles work together in super weird ways.
Examples
- A cat in a box can be both alive and dead until you look at it.
- Two light bulbs turn on together even if they're on opposite sides of the planet.
