Earth moves around the Sun, and sometimes we are tilted toward it, making it warm. Sometimes we're tilted away, making it cold. That's why we have seasons! Imagine Earth like a spinning top that leans in different directions as it goes around the Sun.
Examples
- Imagine standing under a bright lamp, that's like being tilted toward the Sun, making it feel warm.
- If you tilt away from the lamp, it feels cooler, just like winter.
- Earth keeps spinning around the lamp (the Sun) all year.
