What are purposes?

A purpose is like a special job that something has, it tells us why we use it or need it.

Imagine you have a toy car. Its purpose is to roll on the floor, go vroom-vroom, and maybe even crash into your blocks. That’s what it was made for! Now think about your shoe. Its purpose is to help you walk, without shoes, walking would be wobbly and probably painful.

Sometimes things can have more than one purpose, just like you!

You use your hands to grab toys, but you also use them to eat cookies or even climb the jungle gym. That means your hands have multiple purposes, they’re super helpful!

When we know what something's purpose is, it helps us decide how to use it and why we need it in our lives. It’s like having a map for your toy car or your shoe, it tells you where to go! A purpose is like a special job that something has, it tells us why we use it or need it.
